5.0 out of 5 stars Great for laptop computers..., October 30, 2006

We didn't buy ours at Amazon, but did buy two of these exact products about 5 years ago to use with our laptops. We have a 15" laptop on one, a 17" laptop on the other. Very sturdy; enough room for a mouse to sit to the side. You can put the pencil ledge at the top to keep the computer from sliding off the end while sliding back in your recliner - or keep the ledge at the bottom and keep a pen handy there. We've each had ours for almost 5 years now, and other than wishing we could add a little more cushioning materials to the bottom now, they are every bit as nice as the day we bought them. Very nice, well-made product.

As a freelance writer who frequently resorts to long-hand scribbling, I needed something other than a clipboard to support my notepad or editing work-in-progress. This lap desk is all I could have asked for! The wood top is very sophisticated. The felt bottom, which appears to be filled with micro-beads, is very supportive. I haven't gotten "desk fatigue" from having the desk on my lap for too long.

I've even taken the desk when I traveled on a business trip, and was able to catch a baseball game from the comfort of the hotel room couch rather than be cramped at the tiny table.

This desk gets rave reviews from this writer. No cheesy design, but a classy look and feel. I definitely recommend it.

I got this product faster than anticipated - I was expecting it about a week after I actually got it. It's a very nice color, closer to a cherry red than the color in the picture on this site. It's big enough and sturdy enough for a smallish laptop (say, a five pound laptop). The desk itself is rather lightweight as well. The padding is a basic pellet filled black cloth sack. It's soft and distributes nicely.

One minor problem is that there was some slight chipping on two corners of the desk, but I'd attribute this to the delivery rather than the manufacturer (I had another item shipped with this, and the boxes were a bit banged up). It's nothing that a little nailpolish or leftover varnish or something can't fix.

It's definitely not a bad buy, even with the one or two minor blemishes.
