"Works as designed!"
It's a great inexpensive laptop stand that effectively cools the laptop and provides a good angle for the connections. Be aware that it may be difficult with a front loading DVD drive as you would have to lift up the front to access the drive.

"Great"
I have had several stands, this one is it. My office is an executive office and I have many clients come in. I like the stand because it keeps with a low profile unlike other stands, the laptop does not slip off which I understand can be a problem and it is pleasing to the eye. Absolutely recommend.

"Excellent stand for a MacBook"
I ordered this stand from BuyDirect about a three weeks ago and it is fantastic. I got it knowing that I would be getting a 22" external monitor to use with my MacBook and I didn't want to spend too much, I mean, the Alto Connect looks great, but $60? Yeah, no.

The Alto Express is perfect. My MacBook looks great on it, either opened or closed and the height is perfect. I just got my monitor and the two are amazingly almost the same height, with no adjustment required.

My boyfriend liked the stand so much, he ordered two for his laptops (one Mac, one Dell) and they look great. for anyone who is concerned about price, BuyDirect (at least right now) has them for like $15 shipped and that's totally, totally worth it. The plastic is smooth and well shaped and the bottom crevice is great for a MacBook. If you have an older MacBook Pro or another laptop with an optical drive in the front, it might be a slight hassle, but for anyone who has a right or left facing optical drive, it's perfect.

"Ultimate Notebook Stand"
I've had the stand for nearly 2 months now and it's been absolutely great. It is ergonomically perfect and the screen is at a perfect height to reduce neck and eye strain. The keyboard can also be used if you really need to- I was surprised. The space underneath it can even be used for storage. Above all, it was very reasonably priced. Absolutely recommend.

"The best, but not perfect"
Works great for my Dell Latitude D820, and would work just as well for any other non-apple laptop. However, costs about $10 too much based off what you actually receive. Also, as I like to move the stand on my desk, it squeaks hardcore when you try to move it backwards. Overall, a great purchase, just take those few things into account.
