Best $30 I Ever Spent For My Laptop
Durable aluminum construction. Adjustable for multiple laptop sizes. No big bulky cheap plastic cooling pad to lug around, which effectively defeats the purpose of the portability of the device I need it for. This stand folds up into a very compact form factor that fits perfectly into one of the pockets in my laptop bag, no fuss, no problem. No useless fans that generally never improve temperatures in any meaningful way that the fans in the laptop don't already accomplish themselves if they have ample room to breathe, not to mention promoting more dust and dirt getting pushed into the laptop vents, all at the expense of more fan noise and using up one of the already scarce USB ports on the laptop to power them, therefore no mechanical moving parts that will inevitably break or die.This is getting use with a 17.3" MSI Stealth GS76 laptop sporting a Core i7 11800H and a 16 GB RTX 3080 - This laptop gets mighty hot during gaming sessions, and sometimes even during general tasks when sitting flat on a surface. I already have to max the fans to 100% during gaming sessions so as it is. I'm always trying to prop something under the rear outer edge of the laptop to elevate it a little for better airflow, what a pain. This little stand has solved all my problems and really helps a lot to allow the fans in the laptop to work more effectively, pulling much more airflow through the vents underneath, as well as more room for hot air to exhaust away from it, and has such a small footprint where it makes contact with the underside so as not to block airflow into the vents. I get incredibly better cooling results with this stand.My only complaint related to this stand is directed at myself because I didn't get one sooner. It's exactly what I've had in mind and have been looking for.

Incredible, Solid, and Easily Transportable. A Product I Would Not Want To Live Without Now.
Incredible product. Much more solidly built than I had expected.I purchased this because my 2017 MacBook Pro I-7 would warm up considerably during heavy work (I am a data scientist and push the machine to crunch very large sets before I move a project over to AWS for its computing power). This product was more than I expected. It is light weight, strong, and folds conveniently into a size that fits in an outer pocket of my backpack, thus I carry it with me wherever I go. Even when I am not crunching numbers, I place my Mac on it. The typing angle is perfect for long coding sessions and makes my hands feel much better.The item does adjust for the size of the laptop. My MacBook Pro is a 15 inch, but my ASUS laptop is a 17 inch. With a quick turn of the pressure dial on two of the legs, the X-stand adjusts between my Mac and ASUS so that each has a SOLID platform to rest on. And the room below the machines is ample to provide good airflow to keep the machines cooler.I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend the X-Stand, especially if your "office" is more often on your back and your workstation is any desk surface you can find like mine tends to be. It conveniently folds into a small size and provides an adjustable, solid platform to air your laptop. I may purchase additional ones so for when (as too often happens) this great product is discontinued - should it every be - or for holiday gifts for my other geek friends.

LIGHT WEIGHT, ADJUSTABLE, and PACK-ABLE stand!
I bought this stand because I was going to be mobile a lot with my laptop and needed something that wasn't going to bulky when I packed it , but would lift my pc when I would game to allow good ventilation.I am currently using this on a Dell Inspiron i7559-2512BLK 15.6 Inch FHD Laptop (6th Generation Intel Core i7, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB HDD + 8 GB SSD) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M and it works great! It lifts the pc without putting any marks or scratches on the computer and it does allow better viewing angles with it if your using a keyboard separately( which is two of the reasons I got it for.)The stand seems to made out of aluminum and is okay in relevance to the price. . if they would have made it 1/64 " or 2/64 " thicker it would have felt even sturdier, but I guess it would have cost more for them, and then for you.Being 23 dollars when I bought it I think they should at least increase the thickness by that much to better it but, as it is the product is good.It is easily adjustable to your laptop since it has numbers on the sliders which stand for inches of your laptop so you can easily slide and lock to your size and not have to eyeball it every time.One of the other things I wish they would have done is added rubber instead of the soft plastic they added on the ends.That way over time you could replace the heads if your moving a lot AND you would have way more grip than the stand currently offers.Apart from these two reasons which would make the product better, this stand is fantastic compared to the ones with the fans that are really thick, hard to pack, and dont really do much except add noise.

Great Stand. Good Size. Good overall. (Would give it 4.5/5 if I could)
Only had this for a day, so I can't speak for the durability. The quality feels good enough though that it won't break anytime soon. I bought this from multiple YouTube recommendations. It folds out into the X-shape to support a laptop (I've used it with a 13" and 15" Retina Macbook Pro and it works just perfectly. Airflow is great and much better than just leaving the laptop on a desk/bed without the stand.It folds up into a pretty compact device; HOWEVER, it is not as compact as I would like (just personal preference). I'm sure that's a building limitation, but I feel like if it were more compact (even though it is still pretty darn compact), it would be a perfect stand.
