These beautiful laptop desks are perfect for the growing use of laptops in homes. With the increase in laptop temperature, placing your laptop on your lap can become extremely uncomfortable. The laptop desk solves that problem and allows you to easily prop up and adjust your laptop for use while on the couch, in bed, or even use it as a desk in your office. It's easily assembled and can be adjusted to fit any height. Bring your home laptop use to a whole new level.

Summary: Great for some things - not so much for others
Comment: Overall, I like this cart. It seemed the perfect thing for what I wanted, which was to use my laptop while watching TV from a recliner. (How lazy is that?).
As long as I'm sitting upright using my 12.1" notebook, it works well. But for a larger notebook I can't lower the tray far enough to be able to see over it to the TV without it jamming against my knees. Reclining works well but with the same issue. In addition, there is no way to have the tray go over the arm of the recliner because of the perpendicular supports so I have to angle the whole thing and sit the notebook at an angle. Still, it works better than anything else I've found so far.
Height adjustments are cumbersome as the movable part is very heavy (a testament to that sturdy construction) and you have to release two bolts to make the adjustment.
As for quality, everything but the wheels are made of heavy duty materials that I doubt would ever wear out under normal use. The wheel locks seemed to lock on their own so I finally broke all of the tabs off so they wouldn't lock. Before I did that, one of the wheels cracked and then broke off after about a year usage on a hard wood floor.
So it's not perfect but I still like it.

Summary: OK, BUT a Pain in the *** and Fingers
Comment: Just so ya'll know...
The desk arrives COMPLETELY disassembled, which means that even the brackets that support the desktop must be attached by the buyer.
IMHO, it is a pain to assemble, especially if you have arthritis, since the bolts are blunt with a hexagon-shaped hole in the top.
These bolts must be screwed down into a plastic plug in the bottom of the desktop. The manufacturer includes a tiny little allen wrench for this purpose.
After some effort and frustration, we ended up going to a hardware store to buy a ratcheting nutdriver with a 5/32" hexhead tip, which made assembly much easier.
The shape of the legs ( the same four point style as a hospital bedside tray table) will NOT work with a regular recliner chair, or a sofa that is very close to the floor.
However, I believe that this desk would work next to the bed for either a laptop, a book, or a meal.
The finish on the desktop is a little rough on the edges, but very nice on the flat surface.
The completed desk seems sturdy and fairly stable.
Overall, it's a pretty good desk, much better than the wooden folding one that we initially purchased. That one lasted less than a month.

Summary: Very useful desk
Comment: I'm very happy with this desk. It's the perfect solution for a small space and it makes a great team together with a laptop and a comfortable chair.

Summary: Nice desk
Comment: When I first got the desk, I was very disappointed because it was bent and it was a little scratched. I gave it a very poor rating.
I called the vendor and after speaking with customer service, they sent me out a new unit because it must have been damaged in shipping. Their customer service was very friendly and did not give me a hard time about replacing the desk.
The new unit came and I am pleased with it. It looks nice and my 17" widescreen laptop fits on it just perfectly. I keep it with my favorite chair and the whole setup looks modern. I used to get a lot of back aches using my laptop without the desk. Now I am very comfortable as I put in long hours studying.
I would recomment this product.

Summary: do not buy furniture without seeing
Comment: The big hole on the steel plate that passes through the cross bar is not cut right. I cannot screw in the adjuster handle through the tilt-adjusting gap.
Based on other people's review, I think it's probably only mine. I do not want to go through returning this and mine will just sit in the corner of my room until I get a grinder or some similar tool. Should've gone to Ikea...
