I'm really pleased with this clever little stand, which I've found out is actually available in two different handy sizes. The larger size is about 5.5 inches long and is great for propping up the back of a laptop on a desk or table, which makes for more ergonomic typing and much cooler operation. The smaller size, at 3.93 inches in length, is just right for smaller jobs like propping up the back of a phone or small tablet for better multimedia viewing - or in my case - for propping up the front of my smaller QRP Ham Radio Sets during field operation to make the front panel display easier to see and the controls easier to access. Some of the lower review scores seem to result from folks unexpectedly getting the smaller size, so make sure to order the size you will find most useful.The Steepy's support arms have been cleverly configured at slightly offset angles so that there are actually SIX ways to side-to-side orient the Steepy depending on the job at hand, 3 different heights x 2 different left to right orientations. Basically, at each of 3 heights, you can twirl the Steepy around 180 degrees left-to-right so that the side-to-side upper support arm either leans slightly towards you, or slightly away from you, which can help improve support depending on your application. For example, contrary to some of the promo pics in the Amazon listing, I have found that when propping up the REAR of a laptop you will most likely want the Steepy oriented so its upper support arm is ANGLED SLIGHTLY FORWARD (not leaning away as shown). That way when you prop your laptop on it, the Steepy will be leaning into the underside of the laptop at a better angle giving more stable support.This orientation change (sloping-forward or sloping-back), is easily handled as you set the Steepy down. For example, when I prop up the FRONT of one of my HAM radios, I flip the Steepy around left to right so its vertical support is leaning slightly AWAY from me (which is leaning INTO the underside of the radio it's supporting). This is a neat feature since one orientation generally works better when propping up the BACK of something like a laptop or tablet, where the other way around seems to work best when when propping up the FRONT. Occasionally, this rule may be reversed if the device has a ridge or slot along its underside that gives the Steepy better grip and stability in the opposite orientation, but this is easily checked since, worst case, you can just quickly flip the Steepy around and check out all SIX orientations and note the one that works best.The Steepy is a fairly simple item, and at first I thought the price was (no pun intended) just a little steep, but the quality metal construction and clever flexible design have made a believer out of me.No doubt, I will still be finding new uses for these handy little stands years from now (long after the devices I am currently using them with have gone to electronic recycle), and that makes them a great value; now, and for years to come!

Decent stand and effective tool for improving laptop performance and comfort during extended use. Its design allows you to raise your laptop off the table, offering better airflow and reducing heat buildup, which can significantly impact a laptop's performance and longevity. With three height settings, it’s easy to find the perfect angle for comfortable viewing and typing. The elevation not only improves ergonomics by reducing neck strain but also enhances airflow beneath the laptop. This is particularly beneficial for laptops that tend to overheat, as the extra space allows the cooling system to draw in air more efficiently.In my experience, this stand has made a noticeable difference in how hot my laptop gets during use. The raised position helps keep the table surface cool, preventing the heat transfer that usually makes working uncomfortable. The improved cooling efficiency also helps maintain consistent performance, especially during resource-heavy tasks like video editing or gaming.The only flaw it has is that it only raises the back of the laptop. So unless you have another stand or something like a medium sized eraser to hold up the front of the laptop, the edge will be on the table and that puts heavy wear on the laptop's rubber feet. So I would recommend finding another object you can use to safely prop up the front so the entire laptop can be raised off of the table.The stand is sturdy and lightweight, making it portable enough for on-the-go use. The anti-slip pads ensure the laptop stays securely in place, even at steeper angles. Its simple design accommodates laptops of various sizes without being bulky, making it a versatile addition to any workspace. Overall, it's an excellent investment for anyone looking to improve their laptop's airflow and cooling. It’s perfect for both work and leisure, offering a more comfortable and efficient setup while keeping your device running cooler and your table surface free from heat. If you want a practical solution to laptop overheating, this stand is a must-have.

I use this everyday. It works well with my 15 inch laptop and with my iphone. I like the three possible elevation angles it gives you. It would be cooler if it was made from aluminum, but the plastic works fine.

Light weight design, easy to carry. Not attached to the laptop all the time is very useful.

It's the perfect height and it keeps the computer at a very comfortable angle. My wrists are happy! It's stable and sturdy for a 15" computer. It's light and super easy to transport. Happy to have finally found such a product!
