5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly useful Innovation, October 4, 2004
By RN (Chicago, Illinois, United States) - See all my reviews
I got my Adapt-a-lap about 10 days back. I love various uses I can put it to - reading books lying/sitting on bed, on floor, holding my laptop etc. Adapt-a-lap seems to be very handy and comfortable piece of equipment that doesnt strain your body posture and adds extra hours of comfort.

I am an avid reader and now can enjoy longer periods of reading without hurting my neck and back. I have bought lap-boards, bed-reading tables, book-pillow, bed desk etc. (each about $20-$35) and they comforted me only so much. Adapt-a-lap is definately superior to those alternatives.

Adapt-a-Lap is efficiently designed. Leg sticks to most of the surfaces, can be elongated and locked at desired length easily, comes with straps that can hold books etc and has an adjustable thread lock to set the board's angle to your choice. Its lightweight and can be carried anywhere without much hassle. One thing I did not like much was board material. It can certainly be improved to look more aesthetic. Other than that, Its a deft piece of fine engineering that can be put to multiple uses by many differnt kinds of users.

Worth the cost and more!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, January 11, 2006
It's useful. Not the prettiest, but it makes reading more comfortable, especially for those times when you don't feel like sitting all proper at the table or desk.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank you for inventing the Adaptalap!, July 19, 2004
Thank you so much for creating the Adaptalap! I have a 3-year old daughter who is visually impaired. With the Adaptalap she can look at books, draw, use a magnet board and a felt board, look in a mirror, and I'm sure do many things we haven't discovered yet, all without the terrible neck and back strain she used to experience when bending low over a table or her lap. It's simple to use and efficient, and it works from the floor, at a chair and table, in bed, and in the car. I am so thankful that Julie Smith. our vision therapist, told us about your product. Thank you again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not really worth the money
It's okay, but not worth the price. It tends to slip and slide on floor or carpet. Not very stable.
