Impressively compact
This laptop stand folds down into the size of about an index card (minus the thickness of course). It fully expands into a laptop stand that can really lift your laptop at a high angle. In short, this is perfect for traveling and comes with its own carrying bag.The entire stand is made out of metal and comes with Allen wrenches to adjust the tightness of the bolts that hold it together. I’ve had no problems that require them, but it’s a nice addition if something gets loose or is too difficult to twist into position.To be honest, this stand feels like something out of the movie Transformers as it’s amazing how compact it is and how it folds out. An easy 5 star product.

It does the job well! for home office laptop setup. Not sure about other uses.
I’m using this laptop stand under a lenovo 14″ laptop, and it certainly does the job. The stand has become a daily driver in my wife’s office. I’m withholding the 5th star because I’m a nit-picker (below), but I feel comfortable recommending the stand for daily use.The stand feels sturdy, no bounce even when typing on the laptop keyboard (though we normally use an external keyboard and mouse), and the non-skid feet feel secure on the desktop. The non-skid feet certainly work on a smooth laminate or wood desk, but I think they’d work just as well on glass. We keep the laptop in its (thin) docking station so the power and network cables lead out the back rather than sticking out from the sides of the laptop. The the stand handles the extra weight of the docking station without problem, even at the lowest height setting.The stand allows me to raise the laptop screen into my direct line of sight so I don’t have to hunch over the keyboard, as advertised, and also improves the camera angle for video chats; you don’t see the reflection of the laptop screen in my glasses any more.Using the stand allowed us to get rid of the external monitor we were using, freeing up some space on the desktop. The old monitor wasn’t offering any higher resolution or a better speakers or camera anyway.The stand comes with a nice carrying bag and allen wrenches to adjust the joint stiffness if eventually needed.So where’s the 5th star?I don’t like the design of the rear support leg and its latching mechanism. The leg itself is a narrow, long piece, and it extends back from the stand at a flat angle, more strain when set at the lowest height (our preferred setting for our 14″ laptop). The cast metal construction seems sturdy enough to handle it, but most of the flex I felt in the whole stand seems to come from this leg and pin assembly. If the leg could be shorter and extend at more of a right angle for the same height, I think it would feel more sturdy.Another don’t-like is the latching mechanism for the support leg.It’s just by a pin that fits into notches on the side of the leg, held in place by the weight of the stand and laptop or whatever you put on it (see pic). As soon as you pick up the stand, e.g, to dust under it, the pin falls out and you have to fiddle with it when you put it down again (see pic, more closely). I’d like to see something holding the pin into the notch: maybe a plastic spacer or nut and bolt?I’m using the stand with plenty of weight and more or less permanently installed, these design concerns are just hypothetical to me. I’ll leave it to someone who’s using the stand in a more mobile use or with a lighter payload to weigh in (see what I did there?) on how it works for them.

Solid build and good design
This laptop stand is so well-built, it is impressive. It is a quality feel to it and is made of solid aluminum that appears to be cast, with rubber pads strategically placed wherever your device may come into contact with it. It also has rubber feet so it doesn’t slip on the table or desk.The opening and closing action is smooth and has just the right amount of friction to keep it steady while extended, which is exactly what you want when it’s holding your laptop or tablet up.The design is very interesting and I always get looks or questions about it when I’m using it. It folds up compactly and easily fits in a small backpack pocket.The angle is easily adjustable and it holds its position.Overall, I’m happy with it. I would recommend it.
