Product Description

The Latosta portable laptop stand for laptop and notebook computers is made in the USA of 304 stainless steel. Very small and light, it fits easily into your shirt pocket (4.5 x 2 x ? in.) Adjustable angle: Lifts the back of the screen 1 ? to 2 1/8 in. on an average laptop with keyboard thickness of 0.7 in. Exact lift depends on your keyboard thickness and where you place the stands. By lifting the screen and tiling the keyboard, it is easier on the neck and wrists, keeping the body in a more natural position. Better Laptop Ergonomics means less stress on your body, making long hours on the computer easier to deal with. The Latosta portable laptop stand promotes laptop cooling passively instead of using fans, which saves battery power. Independent tests show a CPU temperature reduction of 22 degrees F.

Features:

*Weighs only 2.0 Oz making it easy to take with you.

*Adjustable tilt angle.

*Improved Ergonomics makes it easier on the neck and wrists.

*Improved heat dissipation keeps your laptop cooler.

*Fits laptops of any width

COMPATIBILITY, PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING: This stand is designed for use on a flat surface such as a desk or table only, and is not suitable for use on your lap, a bed, or other irregular surface. For laptops with a keyboard thickness (not including display) of 1 1/8 in. or less. The stand overlaps the top of the keyboard by ½ in., so it is generally not suitable for keyboards who's keys are within ½ in. of the edge. Not compatible with Apple Air or other laptops with beveled edges on the bottom of the keyboard. This product will cover a small portion of the side of your computer (see photo). It can generally be adjusted around a power connection, but may not be the best choice for you if you frequently access the ports or disk on the side of your laptop.

A friend gave me this product as a gift. At first I wasn't sure that I would use it, but after trying it out I can't believe I ever lived without it! I spend a lot of time traveling, and use my laptop on all my trips. I love this tool, it's small, portable and can be used anywhere. It takes the pressure off my wrists, which helps with my carpal tunnel. It's a great tool, I recommend it for any laptop user.

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Latosta Portable Laptop/Notebook Stand (Electronics)

I cant believe how great this little purchase turned out to be. I got my very first laptop (Dell Studio 17 with all of the bells and whistles...an EXCELLENT purchase that I highly recommend..and ladies..it comes in pink....beautiful! I will leave a review for that elsewhere) when I got it I immediately began the search here on Amazon for a product that would be portable, inexpensive and practical for keeping my laptop cool and at an angle. I searched and read everything on every product..and even ordered the $60. Aerogel lap pad that is falsely described as a lap desk (there will be a review on that thing elsewhere also). I decided to start at the bottom and work my way up on cost and practical use. GLAD I did! This two little metal braces are so simple to use and fit nicely in my laptop accessory bag. NO HEAT has been noticeable since the very first day I began to use them. NO slipping whatsoever. I consider this one of the greatest finds here on Amazon. I sent back the expensive product as soon as I took it out of the package. I would highly recommend this product and I think I will buy another pair of these in case for some reason I lose one or need another to leave in the house while the other pair stays in my travel bag.

This review is from: Latosta Portable Laptop/Notebook Stand (Electronics)

I have been using this laptop stand now for the past few months and have found it exceptionally handy. One thing I love about it is the fact that I know it to be practically impossible to damage as it is constructed of stainless steel. It is super light and portable so I always have them in my laptop bag when I need them. I have used them frequently, especially in circumstances when I know that I will be at the keyboard for an extended period of time--taking pressure off of my wrists. A brilliantly simple product...it's only design limitation is that it may occlude some external ports, however I found it easy to circumvent by adjusting the laptop stand position. All in all, well worth the money if you need a space efficient and light laptop stand!
