The Belkin CushTop Notebook Stand makes it more comfortable to use your laptop at home, the office, or on the go. As part of Belkin's laptop@home line of accessories, the CushTop Notebook Stand is designed to help you to take full advantage of the benefits your laptop has to offer -- comfortably, economically, and stylishly.

The CushTop can accommodate small or large laptops. View larger.

Versatile Laptop Cooling
The CushTop provides long-term, padded comfort and protects your lap from a hot computer. In contrast to electric laptop coolers that use fans to suck warm air from the laptop's bottom, the CushTop is made of unique materials that allow venting to keep your laptop -- and your lap -- from overheating. And if energy consumption is a concern, this comfortable stand is as green as it gets with no electrical consumption whatsoever. You can use this handy, attractive stand at home on your couch, bed, or floor, and if you need to get work done on the road, the CushTop is the perfect companion for car, train, or air travel.

Comfort and Convenience
Belkin has added many thoughtful design features to the CushTop. This stand is amply padded for extreme comfort and is covered with a high-quality, hand-washable microfiber upholstery that is durable and easy to clean. The stand also features a convenient, slip-in accessory pocket for your power supply and mouse. And since the CushTop features a flip-over design, one side of the stand is perfect for a 15-inch laptop while the other is just the right size for a 17-inch. If color coordination is important to you, you'll be pleased to know that this CushTop is available in a variety of other vibrant colors, including silver, green, orange, grey, and champagne. And for added peace of mind, it comes with a Belkin Lifetime Warranty.

Protect your lap from a hot computer.

Store your mouse, power supply, and other accessories inside.

The CushTop is available in the following colors:
Green	Orange	Silver	Gray	Brown	Champagne

2.0 out of 5 stars Looks good but makes a poor cooling pad, May 6, 2008

By	D. Fawcett - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Pros: soft surface yet very firm. I like how it works with both 15.4" and 17" notebooks. Great positioning for using while sitting in bed or on the couch.
Cons: Does not allow your notebook to breathe, there is zero room between the top surface and the bottom of the notebook. Belkin claims that the fabric allows for air to move freely but I have had my notebook shut down 3 times due to overheating, and that's no bueno!

This is a poor solution for cooling, if you have a notebook that tends to run hot anyway due to the way you use your notebook, burning DVD's, downloading, copying files, severe multitasking and maybe harware(Dual core, 4 gigs memory)find another solution.
I ended up buying an Antec cooler (looks like a silver X) and I set it under the Belkin which makes it a little taller than it was before but like I said the lift and angle of the Belkin is really nice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Comfy for lap!!, June 1, 2007

By	K. Minger (Coral Gables, FL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I needed something that would fit level in my lap while I typed papers and did work on my computer.. A couch cushion/pillow wasn't doing the trick. This cushtop keeps my legs cool and my computer upright. I can sit on my bed for hours and not worry about feeling uncomfortable.. I would highly recommend to anyone who spends a lot of time on the computer but doesn't like to always sit at a desk.. Great product!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Protects your laptop from spills!, October 2, 2007

By	Nelly "Vision Teacher" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

The main reason I ordered the CushTop is because of the way my previous laptop met its demise: by a spilled glass of water on the desk flowing under it.

With the CushTop, I feel like I have a very affordable insurance policy against this accident EVER happening again! Beverages and food really can't spill onto/under my laptop now, AND it's at a great height for viewing. The icing on the cake is that it's also very comfortable to use on my lap; no more overheated legs!

This provides a nice, firm support at just the right angle -- it's not "floppy" or soft foam or anything that might make it feel as though the computer would fall off (also, the rubber grips on the laptop itself hold it in place).

Unlike other reviewers, I have no trouble fitting my cords and the charger box thing on the cord into the center opening....perhaps some laptops have bigger chargers? (I have a Toshiba Satellite U305 13.3") I don't think a mouse would fit in there, though...maybe an ACTUAL mouse would, but it might chew up the cords. ;-)

In summary...LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! Buy it, you won't regret it -- especially if you can't help but keep a beverage next to your laptop!
