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.
