We have a cat .... well you know that should read "the cat chose us as her staff". Like all cats she likes comfort so needs to find some warm place to snooze and do whatever it is that cats do when pretending to be asleep.Our astute lady cat chose our laptops. They are warm enough to balance out the slight inconvenience of a lumpy keyboard, but then that tends to mould to the body shape a bit. Turn our backs for 10 seconds and she was there, causing havoc with part completed emails, printing processes and anything that would respond in some awful way to random key presses.Experiments with an ever so cheap and flimsy angle stand revealed that a medium angle of incline would be enough for her to slide off and understand that clinging on was not worth the effort. She never went near it again. Family score 1, cat zero!Now to replace that flimsy stand with quality. I know Kensington having used their excellent laptop security products so took a look at the Easy Riser. The Bolo reviews that mentioned the strong plastic used in manufacture clinched it, I paid the very reasonable price and within a few days I was admiring the tough build, simple construction with a minimum of parts and the generous use of softer material to protect the laptop.Setting up with a variety of laptops took a matter of seconds; MacBook Pro, Macbook and a large Dell all relaxed into its welcoming arms.It may be that you are considering the Easy Rider to improve the ergonomics of your workspace. It certainly does that very well with the better viewing angle helping to avoid neck and back strain. It helps cooling too when undertaking processor intensive tasks.But don't forget, the Kensington Easy Rider will "cat-proof" your laptop- unless of course your cat is a Mountain Lion and likes climbing!Thank you Kensington for a quality product.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good stand!
I have tried a good few laptop risers/stands, but this is by far the best I've had.All the others had adjustable height fittings, but could just never get me the exact height I wanted.I was forever getting a sore neck & back from leaning/hunching over my laptop and I couldn't stand it any more.So I decided to browse Bolo and see what I could find.This stand has the benefits of being adjustable in height from quite low, to really quite high.It also has, as you can see from the pictures, little cut out sections to allow air to circulate around the bottom of your laptop and thus by enabling your laptop to stay cooler and avoid it overheating.It comes with instructions on how to adjust the height, and what heights are suitable for whichever situation you may be in. However I just picked the height I found the most comfortable for me. After all, each person is different and we all have our own individual likes & dislikes, so why should adjusting the height of the stand always be set to whatever the manufacturer thinkss is most suitable. Just adjust it to suit yourself and if it doesn't feel right after trying it for a while, there's absolutely nothing to stop you readjusting it. Is there?It's quite sturdy once set to your chosen height, but to be on the safe side, just make sure if you're using it on a slippery/shiny surface to have a mat or something under it to stop the stand from slipping. The stand has little rubber pads on the front feet which hold it steady enough, but the rubber strip on the back underneath side of the stand isn't so great and the stand will tend to slip if it isn't placed on a mat of some sort.So to sum up, I like this stand and the price is acceptable.
4.0 out of 5 stars A good laptop stand - works for my 3.2kg 17" laptop
This is a handy piece of kit if your neck and back are beginning to cause you some pain. It helps you look up and sit up straight which naturally takes some of that pain away. A little pamphlet opens up inside telling you how high you should have it set based on your hand size - make what you will of that, I just use the setting that feels most comfortable to me.The reason for it losing 1 star is for 2 things:1. The mechanism used for tightening the hinge up just seems to have the potential to break. I have no idea what it is, seems like some sort of spring mechanism, but because I have to tighten it up pretty tight to cope with the weight of my laptop (I have a 17" screen) it makes think that if I have to repeat this process a number of times (say if I was to move it around in a laptop case) it might break. This sounds a bit trivial, but just something to think about. Luckily I stay in one place so I've not had to do that much, and it's held in place well for few months now.2. The bottom edge of my laptop is half curved and half square (i.e. if my laptop thickness is 150 mm, 75 mm is a curve and 75 mm is flat) which means there's not a great deal in contact with the bottom lip of the bracket which supports the weight of the laptop. This means that if the laptop or bracket is nudged a little, the laptop slides straight off the bracket which could cause damage to something. This is the main reason I gave it 1 less star.Overall I'm very glad I bought it and would recommend it for the 11 pounds I paid. Unfortunately I can't compare it against anything else as I've not really bought anything else like this. The main reason I bought it is because I am doing a lot of computer programming and coding as part of my masters course so I tend to spend a lot of time at my laptop. Naturally your body is strained when doing activities like this, but this Kensington laptop stand has helped to alleviate some of this strain.
5.0 out of 5 stars Kensington means quality
Top quality as usual. Made of plastic but very solid and secure. Rubber feet so it won't scratch my glass desk Fully adjustable for any angle. No assembly required. Folds flat for storage. To stop it sliding back on the glass desk I stuck two cable tie mounts at the back and voila, firm as a rock. Holds my 17" laptop perfectly. Highly recommended.

Achat très utile
J'ai tout simplement acheté le même qu'au travail pour chez moi. Permet de mettre le pc quasiment à la vertical. Très bon choix
Ottimo prodotto
L'ho preso per evitare il male al collo che mi viene a stare sempre chino sul portatile. La postura è decisamente migliorata e la posizione di lavoro non crea più problemi. Pensavo di no, invece è anche comodo per scrivere! Il prodotto è stabile, pratico, leggero. Lo consiglio.
Good fit
Good for teaching online. Just the right height
Defraudada
Estoy muy decepcionada pues le faltan clavijas para bajar más la plataforma. Yo mido 1,60 cm, y desde que uso gafas graduadas ya no puedo ni usarlo pues me queda muy alto y tengo que poner la cabeza de forma rara y acababa con las cervicales doliendo. Así que lo he desmontado y ahí está, en el fondo del armario.
