I was looking for a laptop stand that allowed me to use my laptop as a desktop replacement. This stand is simple, nice looking, functional and contrary to a review I read, stable. I suppose, there might be a laptop with a super slippery bottom that might allow the laptop to fall if it is bumped by accident, but honestly it is hard for me to envision any laptop falling or sliding off the stand on it's own. I am currently using the stand with my Sony Vaio 15.6" laptop. In any case, let me return to my review:
1. The stand lifts the laptop monitor up to a height that is the perfect height for me.. the top of the monitor is just below eye level.
2. The design of the stand allows it to not have any side rails so that any keyboard, no matter what size, can be stored under the laptop freeing up the maximum desk space when the laptop is not in use.
3. The stand is very sturdy and stable. The stand has a very slight angle forward to counter-balance the monitor screen and expose the laptop keyboard to the user. The high quality rubber on the solid metal bracing provides a sturdy and stable base for the laptop. As I stated earlier, I can't imagine this falling or slipping off the stand unless the table is not stable or if it is accidentally knocked off or yanked off by a cable, but this is true of most stands. There are plastic little tabs that stick up on the front of the stands for a super slippery laptop with a near zero frictional coefficient. ;)
4. The laptop stand looks cool. The laptop floats in the air. I have a cable that connects to the second monitor and a USB cable for additional storage, but other than that the stand, laptop, second monitor, wireless keyboard, and wireless mouse create a very functional, cool looking, and clean desktop.
I shopped for a long time for this stand and am very pleased with it. Oh, the amazon price was substantially lower than what I saw this stand for elsewhere (or even with other vendors on Amazon.)
I hope this is helpful.

Expensive for what it is - but it goes perfectly with my Razer Blade
Works great for what it is, a nice stand of varying color options to help tidy up your work space. I actually chose this particularly stand as I have my old surface pro and my new Razer Blade that I needed to have set up at the same location to switch inputs between. This is easily the best solution I've found from the products I looked through on amazon, and would highly recommend it if you too want to switch between 2 devices.Pros:- clean professional finish- very sturdy build with non-slip rubber grips- comes in black (and other colors)Cons:- angle & height not adjustable- gloss plastic front picks up a lot of dust- fits most laptops, but looks weird with smaller onesHonestly, this should probably cost less than half of what it does, but well there's always a tax you pay for a higher quality finish and a well-built product. A fashion tax over some plastic mess coming from some other cheaper manufacturers.*I've attached some photos, first one showing it with the double-decker setup I have (don't mind the cable mess I'm sorting out in the back), one photo with flash on it and a Jaeger for scale, and one of my current desk setup. All in all, a fine addition and would recommend to those who can afford to spend a little extra.

It comes with.
-Two metal legs, which have rubber feet, discreet and cannot be seen, but most vitally it ensures the laptop stand does not mark the surface and remains stable.
-Two laptop plastic retainers which slot on the front of the downward facing laptop stand. Helpful to prevent the laptop from sliding off, however there is soft rubber that extend from the length of the top angle which prevents the laptop from sliding off anyway, so I have never used them. Hence them still being in the little wrapper.
- One plastic bar which allows the legs to slot into
Suffice it to say, the rubber on the top side provides a slight elevation to the device allowing ample air flow to the vents. Win Win :)
Also, a small but significant point, well that is.... there is "no points" on this. They are all rounded and safe to handle.
Hope this helps others, if it does, please do let me know.
