If you have a situation in which you need this often and in just one position, and have room to set it aside, it’s sturdy and you’ll probably love it. Otherwise, it’s big and awkward when not in use, such a pain to adjust that you never will, and it’ll be junk you wish you hadn’t spent so much on.

We got this for my father, who has a bad shoulder, so that he can read in bed, and it works great. It is adjustable to however you need it, and it is lightweight for his shoulder. It is versatile and can be used, and it is perfect if you're looking for a good-quality holder.

I needed a desk to either raise my iPad, laptop, or a book to read, because I am supposed to try not to look down due to neck issues. I tried several and ended up going with this one because of the versatility. The reason for four stars instead of five is because it is a bother to change it from one setting to another, however, because of the design, it is more versatile than anything else I looked at. I can use it in my chair, on my desktop, and even as a passenger in a car. It is very sturdy. We are in the car lot and in the front seat, because of the design, I found a way to adjust it as long as I use the armrest for the right leg and have the left leg on the seat. my husband just tested. Tell me to scoot it toward me when he needs to see in a mirror to change lanes if we are on a multilane highway. The only other downside depends on its use. The ledges, deep enough to hold a book, however, too deep, if you need to use a keyboard for an iPad, keyboard, or laptop. I may need to purchase a Bluetooth keyboard to have in my lap, because in order to have A device at a high enough level for me not to bend my neck down, I would have to have my hands and arms are a bit of an awkward angle. I only have to do minimal typing, I do put the ledge of the keyboard up on top of the ledge that holds a book in place. I have had it for a couple weeks now using it in the house and in the car and I find that it is sitting my needs quite well overall.

This little stand has changed my media viewing habits (print books, tablet, and laptop). Its a bit winky to figure out at first, but very with it. I was diagnosed with cervical radiculopathy, which showed up as severe arm and neck pain one morning. Turns out my years of lap reading habits have caused arthritis at all of my neck vertebrae, one of the discs suddenly bulged & caused severe pain. Many neurological appointments ensued... An elevated reading stand was deemed essential. The neck and arm pain are gone and I faithfully use this stand daily now for reading & chair laptop work. Now that I have the hang of it, it just takes a couple seconds to transition between "reading mode and laptop mode". My neck is never looking down at my task anymore. It even props up my cookbooks when I'm standing in the kitchen. Annnd it folds completely flat & fits in my overhead suitcase. Be sure to get the one with 3 legs, much more versatile.

Saw a similar one in a catalog that was much higher in price and the shipping cost was a deterrent. We received this and it is just what we were looking for. Easy to use and the multipurpose makes it even better than what I envisioned using it for.

It's great: well made and easy to adjust. I use it all the time when I am on the couch with my laptop

A little confusing to set up at first, it that’s prob because I don’t read directions. It is very sturdy, lightweight. I use it at work so I can stand some of the time. I use it with a mini stepper. I can read through some work stuff while on it. If someone comes in to talk to me, it is easy and light enough to put in the floor

This is a very specific review (I'm rating it a 4 b/c I have someone to help me adjust it; otherwise, it's a 1). I need to lie on my back to read, and needed to get books off of my belly and out of my hands. With that in mind, this device works great when adjusted for books and would work well for holding a tablet, but it holds my lap top at an unusable angle/distance while lying down, which is disappointing. It's a nice wide size, about 19" between the arms; it comes assembled; it's sturdy but quite light.. We did have to add velcro straps on either side of my books to hold the pages down, as the platform needs to be vertical for books when lying on one's back. The problem is that it takes two people to adjust the device - one has to hold in two buttons on opposite sides, & then it takes another person to adjust the device. I have reasonable hand strength and a large hand size for a woman (wear an XL glove for length), but it's nearly impossible to adjust it by myself. If I lived alone, I'd have to return it. One caution, which seems self-evident in description but NOT when using it: take the object you're intending to use OFF OF THE DEVICE WHILE ADJUSTING IT! My husband had placed my lap top on it and got distracted in setting the platform to a more vertical position, and the lap top landed on his forehead and gave him a nasty cut and a goose egg. OVERALL: Once adjusted by two people and the medical trauma was dealt with, I can now enjoy the sheer pleasure of reading without hurting.

Cuesta unos 20 minutos encontrar las 4 o 5 posiciones en las que se usará. No creo que haga falta más, pero con esas 4 o 5 posiciones, se puede utilizar en la cama, en el sillón , o en la mesa. Nunca más mirar hacia abajo, ni con un libro, ni con un portátil, tablet, etc. Lo hemos comprado para nuestra hija que es una gran lectora y además estudiante, y pasaba muchas horas con el cuello en mala postura y sujetando el portátil en las piernas. Al verlo, con las patas y las posiciones qu e puede adoptar, me pareció que iba a ser complicado y no lo iba a usar, pero está muy contenta y yo más. Muy ligero y robusto.

Tiene un diseño elegante al ser de aluminio, es ligero, facil de usar y cumple su función. Lo ocupo en mi trabajo donde coloco expedientes de varios tamaños, facilita la lectura y calmó mi dolor de cuello, ya que no tengo que bajar mi vista, sino mantengo mi vista hacia el frente y lo utilizo diario, así que vale la pena el precio, ya que estoy seguro que me va a durar mucho tiempo y cuida mi salud al tener una postura adecuada de lectura.

Bought this product to hold large textbooks and it did not disappoint. The instructions are clear on degree each joint needs to be set for common position uses. Held my heavy pathophysiology book with ease and stability. Have only used it in sitting position so far but has really saved strain on my neck and back. A little pricey but in my opinion is worth it as quite sturdy and has made studying much more comfortable.

It is perfect for drawing and reading. It is very sturdy but very light. It has tons of different ways you can use it by positioning the legs in different ways, I am able to use it for reading in bed at an angle, then change the angle to flat to rest a meal on, or raise it higher and put on a table to stand up to draw and paint, and then reduce the height and use it while sitting at a table, I love this thing! Until you get used to how to move the joints you may find it confusing, but after using it for a few hours in different positions described above I am now able to easily adjust it. The rubber lip that fits onto the front is really helpful, it makes it comfortable to rest my arm on when drawing, and it is wide enough to hold my books in place or rest pencils on.
