How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsEverything as Advertised and looks good
Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2023
Just got it yesterday.
The look of the finish (composite black is the one I chose) is super-cool looking. The wrist rest is not beans but a padding material and feels sturdy like it will last a very long time. There IS a piece of MDF (most likely) underneath the pad which I can feel if I'm feeling around for it, but we'll see if it protrudes over time from beneath the padding and becomes noticeable to my wrist. So far, one single day, it has NOT protruded. That is Good!
The lap pads, one larger than the other so the lap desk tilts back toward you slightly, are filled with what feels like Styrofoam beads. The single-piece fabric on the pads and the entire bottom of the Lap-Desk is of a sturdy cloth material of a weight that feels like it will last. That material with only four seams, is hemmed in around the circumference of the padding bottom cover material with a heavy Cordura style nylon. This looks like something you'd find in a Sharper Image store and feels like it has been well-thought-out, well-researched and improved over time.
The mousepad and the phone cradle are spot on!
I was able to actively monitor and screen my incoming calls while using the computer at the same time, without needing to get up to find my phone, dropping the laptop, dropping my pen into the couch cushion, forgetting my glasses and ultimately losing my mind just before an unsolicited call, appearing as a customer, wastes my time with a robot caller on the other end! (Anecdotal Scenario without this lap-desk)
This thing has proven to be more bang for the buck than I imagined. It's pretty nice!
I would recommend it to my fussiest friends.
You're simply not going to get a Graphite-Composite material, nor a real marble material (nor would you want that weight on your lap) at this price point. So if you get it, don't go complaining that the plastic marble doesn't look like real marble!!! It's FAKE!
If you're practical, Make the purchase. You can't go wrong.
I am please with this purchase.

3.0 out of 5 starsNot as happy with my replacement compared to my previous one
Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2023
I've had my other Lapgear lap desk for a quite a few years and the beans completely flattened or disintegrated on the cushioned part. I was afraid to cut it open and try to add more beans and decided it was time for a new one. The measurements stated it would fit my 17" laptop but I was disappointed to see it was a few inches shorter than their previous model which I have had 2 of prior. Now my laptop hangs over the mouse area by at least a half inch or ore which doesn't give me as much room to "mouse."

Additionally the pad side is not the typical mousepad material like my two prior ones. I find that my mouse does not work as well on this material which is disappointing as well. I really don't want to have to move my mouse around even more to get it going where it needs to be. I spend half my day at the computer and I need to move quickly and efficiently.

I can't find any other laptop desks similar to this one - I have looked for a very long time. I don't know if I'm going to keep this or not... my only other option, it seems, is to try to cut mine open, try to refill it with some beans, and see if it's able to be re-sewed which I feel will be a pain in the behind task.

My photos show my new pink one against the old carbon one (please ignore the dog hair which sticks in the mouse pad material), and the 3rd image shows my old one and how completely flat/pancaked it got after a few years of daily use.

I'm just really bummed on the few inches lost as I don't want my laptop hanging off the left side but I eel like I need that room to move my mouse around - as a photographer I use the mouse A TON for editing and having a tiny area to mouse is counterproductive.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hate it
Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2023
Style: Home Office Pro W/Wrist RestColor: Gray WoodgrainVerified Purchase
I had this out of the box for less than an hour before packing it back up and starting the return process. I have no idea how it managed to get a 4.7 star rating, personally I would give it negative 2 stars. No matter what position you sit in, it’s not possible to get comfortable with this on your lap. The “padding” on the bottom is very stiff and inflexible, so unless you sit with your legs perfectly straight out your laptop will be slanted and the mouse will just slide off the side. The wrist rest at the bottom is so hard there is no angle you can place your wrists on it that isn’t uncomfortable. I WFH and move around the house a lot with my laptop, and no matter if I was standing, sitting at the desk, sitting on the couch, etc. it was awful. If it didn’t cost $40 I would have just thrown it straight in the trash. I guess to end on a positive note, it does look nice. If you only care about how it looks not how it performs, perhaps you would like it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Arrived falling apart
Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2023
Style: Home Office Pro W/Wrist RestColor: OakwoodVerified Purchase
Bought and returned. The mousepad was coming off and had separated from the unit. Horrible workmanship.

I have another lap desk from the same company that I bought 8 years ago. It’s a little beaten up, but still usable. I just wanted a new lap desk. This wasn’t it, and the model I have is no longer made.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor Material holding up “2 support beanbars”
Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2023
Style: Home OfficeColor: Black CarbonVerified Purchase
I was using this lapdesk for the first time in a while, and from less than a hour of usage (I assure you I was drawing at most, not moving, so very little stress on the desk), the beanbars (one of two) at the seams ripped apart and leaked the bean/foamy-like microbead balls on my blanket. Very poor material holding the microbead support bars. While the microbead bars are of very low quality, I did enjoy using the top area. The carbon fiber (plastic-like) is fine. It is a nice touch having a phone stand (just a relatively small dip on the top right for phone to slip in, not the snuggest). I also like the “holder bar” at the bottom left to middle to hold up devices like a laptop (or in this case my tablet).

1.0 out of 5 stars Not sturdy at all-- Not worth the money. Only buy if your laptop is ultra-light.
Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2021
Style: Home OfficeColor: Black CarbonVerified Purchase
Very disappointed in this product. Bought it to replace my old Sofia + Sam lap desk, and even though it was getting scruffy-- it was still much MUCH better than this one. I have an MSI gaming laptop that only weighs about 4-5 pounds, with a very light mouse and external keyboard. My laptop is not big, it fits right on the lap desk as it is 15". I've had this lap desk for a little over 6 months, and keep in mind I was not being rough with it at all.

About a week in, I noticed that the "carbon black" coating was peeling off. I filled in the spots with sharpie to blend it in. Soon after that, I noticed that the lap desk was BENDING from the weight of my laptop when I picked it up, and it was actually splitting apart. My laptop is not heavy at all. It seems like this lap desk is made out of some cheap cardboard or particle-board type material. I also wish there was more of a barrier or cushion for the mouse area. Not only was my wrist not properly supported, but my mouse would slide right off every time I shifted my weight while sitting with this lap desk.

All in all, this lap desk is not worth $34. Go buy the Sofia + Sam one, which is not much more expensive and is MUCH more sturdy than this one. That one lasted me for years. Again, very disappointed in this product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Wrong Item Sent Twice
Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2023
Style: Home OfficeColor: White MarbleVerified Purchase
It was super fast shipping both times. I ordered the marble looking one after much research. I come home to find out they sent a completely different lapdesk, it was wood looking and the cushion was different. I immediately asked to return it in exchange for a new one. No big deal, easily sent it back and received my “new” one today and it was the exact same wrong item. They must have it labeled incorrectly, so beware if you get the marble one that you may get a completely different one than ordered. Shipping was fast and returning was super easy. Decided I would buy the exact same thing from BestBuy instead even though it was $10 more. I just want the marble one as pictured.

1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid- “mouse pad” barely glued in, super cheap material…
Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2023
Style: Home OfficeColor: OakwoodVerified Purchase
Very disappointed from Lap Gear. This is not the quality I expected out of them from this board and a few others. The board is super cheap feeling with the materials, and the “mouse pad” was a cheap piece of vinyl glued in a tray only barely and was already coming up from the tray when I received it. The plastic piece to hold laptops in place on the board is too short and doesn’t even want to hold my super thin MacBook Air in place.
This is not worth your money or time to try. There’s better out there than this.

1.0 out of 5 stars Complete junk. Avoid at all costs.
Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2022
Style: Home Office Pro W/Wrist RestColor: Gray WoodgrainVerified Purchase
This item is the worst Lap desk I've ever used. It looks nice enough out of the box and feels okay and comfortable...until you actually use it for any amount of time. The pads on the bottom for your lap are filled with styrofoam beads that start to compress almost immediately. Before long, the hard plastic of the desk is resting on your knees and defeats the purpose of comfort. Plus, the palm rest is a piece of wood covered with a very thin padded fabric. Trying to use it causes my palms and wrist to hurt after only a few minutes. I had to push my laptop further away toward the edge of the desk to prevent the strain on my wrists. After about 9 months of constant use, the lap desk is too uncomfortable to use. Whatever happened to using silicone for the bottom pads and for the palm rest? Save your money and try another product.

The quality is very poor. The cushion beans vanish within 6 months and the mouse pad lifts up off the tray.

I was really excited about this product when it first arrived, the built in features are great. Sadly after only a few uses the board creased and cracked and it’s not usable anymore. Wouldn’t recommend.

1.0 out of 5 stars THE WORST. CHEAP CARDBOARD AND SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE SANDPAPER FABRIC ON THE BOTTOM
Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2021
Style: Home OfficeColor: White MarbleVerified Purchase
i never write reviews but i felt like i needed to for this because there are probably other broke students trying to but this like myself who wasted money and had to return it. this is crap. you can literally see the cardboard on the edges of this super fake paper feeling " marble printed " surface, which is also really fake and cheap looking from close by. its not only cheap looking but also feels not sturdy and easily breakable or like u could easily crack it because its cardboard. the rests on the bottom are made of straight-up sandpaper, the fabric is sooo rough and cheap it literally irritated the skin on my legs. the bumps are also not large enough and do little to nothing in propping up and angling the laptop. im shocked that this well known brand is this awful. oh well gonna have to spend extra money on sonething else and amazon should take the amazons choice sticker off this crap
