Customer Reviews:
I lap for Mac Book.......2007-05-12
I am pleased with the design and the materials of this product.
I often use my Mac Pro while sitting in an easy chair, and the stand meets all of my requirements. Further, it serves well on a desk top. As with all things made by man, it is not perfect. The machine must be raised up off the stand, in order to insert or remove a CD. Non-the -less, I rate it a 5 star item.

Works very nicely.......2007-05-05
I would give this 4.5 out of 5 - it works very nicely, with the slight drawback that the cushions sometimes need adjusting. I bought it to use with a 15" MacBook Pro. The stand works perfectly: the computer (and my legs) don't get too hot using the stand.
It feels a bit strange when I don't use the stand nowadays.
Works Well With My 15" MacBook Pro.......2007-05-02
It keeps my lap and/or my bed cool. I wish the angle of the cushions was more adjustable. I put the little plastic cushions that came with it, on the tray itself and it holds my laptop in place nicely.
I like it and I haven't found anything better, but I do think that it is overpriced for what it is - but it seems to be the only show in town.
My husband said that he didn't want one for his 17" HP laptop, but when I got mine, he tested it, and guess what .... we are now a two ilap household.
Indispensable! I've owned it for 8 months and can't live without it........2007-03-20
I bought my iLap in July of 2006 for my PowerBook G4. I was having problems with my PowerBook being unbearably hot when placed on my lap so I decided to give the iLap a try.
The iLap has surpassed my expectations. I feel absolutely no heat on my lap from my PowerBook even though I use my PowerBook many hours at a time, every day. The hinged front and back cushions offer enough flexibility that I can use the iLap in many different positions, such as sitting up or laying on my back on the couch. I also find the cushions offer enough support that I don't have problems with discomfort from the weight or metal of my PowerBook or the iLap itself.
I have not had the slipping problem others have reported. My iLap came with 4 rubbery pads that grip the PowerBook very well. If I do notice any slippage, all I have to do is clean the pads and the feet on my PowerBook, and the slippage stops completely. I have to clean it maybe every 2 or 3 months which is very reasonable. I constantly walk around with my PowerBook on my iLap, and the grip is so good that I have to be careful to remind myself that they are not truly attached because I sometimes find myself not holding my PowerBook as securely as I should. So far, in 8 months of use, the iLap has not allowed my PowerBook to slip even with my occasional carelessness.
The iLap has held up very well after 8 months. The cushions have not degraded, the front cushion remains firmly attached (although, I usually don't take it off as there's no need), and while I'm sure the cushions must be dirty by now, you wouldn't know it by looking at it. I have used a lint remover on the cushions a couple of times to clean up cat hairs when my cat thinks my closed PowerBook is her personal warmed napping spot, but that's about as much care as my iLap has needed.
I have found my iLap to be so good that I take it everywhere I go, including finding ways to put it in suitcases when I go out of town. The hinged front cushion helps greatly when packing it, and it's stood up well through many plane rides in the front pocket of suitcases that were checked in.
I can't say enough good things about my iLap. It is one accessory that I find completely indispensable for my laptop usage and comfort. It receives my highest of recommendations, especially considering how well it's held up for so long.
Cooling of the lap........2007-02-08
If your lap top is heating your legs a bit more than is comfortable give this product a try. It really works well. It also puts my lap top at a great angle on my desk. I would recomend one of those sticky pads they sell at the office supply stores. Cut it into small sections and it will stop the computer from sliding. A patch on the desk also helps.
