The biggest problem with this piece is that when it rolls on its wheels, it loses its grip on the server. Which is kind of the point of a stand.

Update: after reading my review on Amazon, the company offered to replace the stands for me with newer versions. That was very generous, but I declined because the stands work well enough and I didn't want the hassle of dealing with new ones.

I've never used a CPU stand before, but thought it was finally time to get the computer up off the ground and away from the dust bunnies. The stand gets the job done well. It is solid and stable, and was easy to adjust to fit my CPU. It holds the computer at a good height from the floor. I appreciate the casters, which make it easier than ever to move the CPU forward and get to the connections in back. It's also nice that the casters can be locked to keep it from rolling by itself.

Just FYI... this stand can be used for many things other than a CPU stand... I'm using it for a portable window fan that kept falling out of the window... works perfectly!

This worked out great for me. This CPU stand is really durable and well made. I had no problem figuring out how to use it. I like that it's on rollers so I can move the CPU anywhere without effort.

After receiving the stand I immediately put it to use and it worked great except for (as another consumer has mentioned) when trying to roll across the floor it expands releasing the PC. This is a small glitch, and as I don't plan on moving it very often, it suits my needs just fine.

This stand is pretty good, but you have to be careful when handling the CPU to make sure you hold the stand or the CPU will slide off of it. There is no rubber gripping or arms to keep the CPU from sliding. Plastic on plastic doesn't create much friction... The unit also opens too easily, making it open up wider than you need it with little effort. I'm afraid my CPU will fall off of the stand if I'm not careful. The stand does seem sturdy though and has locking casters.

I purchased this because the product description implied that it was adjustable for different width computers. I needed to use it for an IBM computer that has a standing-up width of only 3 inches wide. While this stand was very easy to put together and does narrow to that dimension, it is extremely unstable/"top heavy". I've had to wedge it between my desk and a chair and I'm worried that if anyone bumped it, it would fall over. I've tried swinging the wheels out to expand the base and make it more stable, but the wheels spin back in with the slightest movement.
I would NOT recommend this product unless you have a low-wide/squat computer.

I bought this cpu grip stand to keep my pc off the floor. I have carpeting, so my monster fans will suck up all and any dust and lint. But because of it's x shapped design that allows it to open and close to the dimensions of a pc it tends to seperate too much and out comes the pc. But if your like me and constantly moving it around of course it bound to happen. I would recommend it to anyone it's great!

This item is just what I needed, it raises my CPU up off the floor & rolls great on my laminate floor. Does just what it is supposed to do.

This is a great gadget... so easy to set up and gets your CPU off the floor so it's further away from dust and easy to move about. I installed laminate floors and this is great for both of my computers, easy to move around so I can dust under the CPU when I couldn't when it was sitting on an upsidedown crate. Thanks to the folks that created this gadget, I have 2 of them and they are terrific!!!
