Useful accessory
This notebook stand is very sturdy and has four lockable angles to suit all needs. I don't use this on a desk or table which I suppose is how most people will use it. I prefer to have my laptop on my lap on a beanbag tray while sitting in comfort with my feet up! This stand lifts the keyboard from the horizontal position so that I can type easily. Very good value.

Excellent stand for 15.4" laptop
I bought this stand as my neck and shoulders had been getting a bit sore from a hunched up position using my laptop on a coffee table.

Almost immediately I noticed an improved posture thanks to the stand and after a week I can feel a noticeable difference. Using my laptop is now much more comfortable.

The stand is well built with rubber to ensure it does not slip on the coffee table. Also there is rubber where the stand touches my laptop so it will not cause scratches.

The stand is well worth the money and thanks to its sturdy construction I think it will give me several years of use.

Great budget stand
I've written this review because some people seem to have had problems using this stand with larger laptops. I'm using it with a 17" Dell Inspiron and am delighted with it. It feels sturdy and I think it's great value.

NOT SUITABLE FOR LARGE LAPTOPS!
The Kensington Easy Riser is a well built product,
the plastic feels sturdy enough and of good quality.

BUT, and this is a huge But...
- it can be adjusted in only four positions
and the lower one is too high (I am 1.79m)
- it can obstruct the line/headphones out socket
if it is located on the front of your laptop
- it is NOT suitable for a 17 inch laptop!

My HP DV9000 series laptop (17 inch) was too big
for the laptop riser. Furthermore HP and Toshiba
laptops with a slightly rounded lower front end
tend to slip off the rabberized laptop riser.

Also I felt that the placement on the Kensington riser
was not the best for my laptop since the fan socket was
sitting directly on the rabberized part of the stand.

Some of my comments apply only to the HP DV9000 Series
or other 17 inch laptops.

Overall this would be a very good product for any slim
15 inch laptop or smaller.

Ideal solution and great value for money
This simple, but highly effective, piece of equipment arrived the same day as my friend was passing through from South Africa. So impressed was she by the notebook stand, she hijacked it to take back to SA and I had to buy another one! I would highly recommend the stand - it is simple, sturdy (but light), compact and does the job.
