mStand Laptop Stand (Silver, mStand)

I did my research on buying a stand for at least 2 weeks before making a decision. And, I have to say, I'm VERY happy that I purchased the mStand Laptop Stand. This solid stand works perfectly with my 15" brand new MacBookPro. It holds it securely in place, is well-made, and I can even carry the stand AND the laptop around from floor to floor together (thanks to that hole in the back of the stand) depending on where I want to use both! (Naturally, you have to be careful but I've done this often with no problems). It also looks great with the lapbook as it matches and is just a sleek, modern design -- they go together well, like a hand in a glove! I will be using this for my business and for personal use. So far, I'm loving it and have no complaints. I considered the swivel stand, but being the klutz that I am, I feared I'd hit the swivel and knock over a cup of coffee or create some other disaster. Also, I read reviews regarding the swivel option and many said that it turns VERY easily. Again, for someone like me, that's not a risk I'm willing to take, although for some, less klutzy people and for those who do not work alone, as I do, it could work - for sharing what is on the screen. I like the fact that the stand is VERY sturdy. Your laptop will NOT slip off at all. Right now, I have this on my bed and I'm even typing directly onto my laptop. (the swivel would NOT be a good option for that at all). I do have a wireless keyboard and mouse for my work, but for occasionally typing right onto it, it's perfect! After scouring the internet and reading MANY reviews, I have to say I am VERY happy with my decision and would highly recommend it as a safe method of securely raising your laptop to a better height for viewing and working on, either professionally or personally. Although the height is not adjustable, you can always adjust your seat if it's not at a perfect height or put the stand on something solid, like a large thick book to give it an extra 1 to 2 inches, if needed. When it is sitting on a standard table or desk height, the height works fine for me and I'm 5'5" tall. (This is as opposed to if you're sitting on a bed --- which in this case, I put the stand on a very thick large hardback book). As usual, Amazon delivered it to my eagerly waiting self in a timely manner. It was packed up well and a joy to open and use! Highly recommended!

Summary: This is such a simple product that you might be wondering why my review is so long. The fact is I love getting products that work reliably and do their job, no matter how simple they are, and I love praising good products. The only drawback of this laptop stand is that it's not adjustable. And no, I don't work for Rain Design and I paid for this with money.Build Quality (10/10): This is made of solid aluminum. No plastic. It just feels really premium, and I'm sure it will last forever. I would probably need a sledgehammer to damage this in any way.Appearance (10/10): This thing just looks cool. It keeps your laptop at a healthy height for viewing the screen, and It especially looks good with MacBooks, and any laptops made of aluminum really. I have a giant Dell Inspiron made of aluminum and black plastic, and my roommate has a MacBook pro, and they both look great on the stand. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to make their desk look cleaner, cooler, and more ergonomic.Functionality (9/10): The only reason it's not a 10 is because it's not adjustable. However, given the simplistic nature of this product, I don't really mind. In my tests it cooled down my laptop fairly effectively. The hole in the back helps with cable management. There's some space under where the laptop goes that works well for storing small speakers, or anything you don't want to see on your desk. Any size laptop is completely stable when sitting on this stand, and the stand is completely stable on any surface. Like I said earlier, laptops sit at a healthy height on most desks. I usually just throw my laptop on the stand when I get home, instead of having it sit awkwardly on my desk, getting in the way of papers.Overall, I have really nothing bad to say about this stand. It's a little expensive, but it's worth every penny for the quality and build. If you don't feel the need to get a stand that you can adjust, nothing can really beat this product.

This is my second mStand by Rain Design. I previously owned a Macbook Pro (13"), then I purchased an iMac and sold my Macbook Pro and mStand along with it. However, I recently went back to a Macbook Pro (15") and had to purchase another mStand.It works perfect for all size Macbook Pros. The extra weight of the 15" does not cause any flexing in the mStand. It is pretty sturdy, however, if you are not using an external keyboard, you will notice some bouncing/shaking as you type. However, the purpose of this stand is to use it with an external keyboard most of the time.The cable management hole in the back will fit plenty of cables and connectors (including a standard DVI cable). There is a plastic ring inside the hole that acts as a grommet, so you do not have to worry about your cables resting against a sharp edge. The space under the laptop is enough for a keyboard (I keep an external Blu Ray drive under since my MBP doesn't have an internal drive).They advertise that the aluminum acts as a heat sink to keep your laptop cooler. I am not sure if this is true. There are rubber feet on the stand (as you can see in the picture) that prevents direct metal to metal contact. While the feet are not too high, I am not sure if that gap between laptop and stand is small enough to allow the stand to act as a heat sink or not. According to iStat, all of my temperatures remain under 30C during normal use. Even if I am watching a video and my dedicated graphics card kicks in, it stays around 37C. When I play a game, I have not had it go over 70C. So it operates within normal/safe temperature ranges. I had this laptop on a laptop cooling pad I had laying around before I ordered this stand, and the temperatures are about the same.The height is perfect. With the height of my desk and chair, it sets the top of the screen to my eye level, which is much more ergonomic than if the laptop was on the desk directly. It also puts it at about the height of my external monitor, so when I am using both monitors it is easier to look from one to the other.I am not sure what more I can say about this stand. It looks amazing, it serves its purpose. I think the best review I could give is the fact that I liked it enough that I bought it a second time when I went back to using a laptop exclusively.If you are using this for work and are constantly spinning your laptop around, then they do sell a swivel version. This one does not swivel well as there are rubber feet on the bottom of the stand between it and the desk, and you wouldn't want to destroy those by trying to swivel this model.

With virtual lectures, I was sitting at my desk (including study time) for about 15 hours a day with excruciating back pain, so I was browsing for stands that can angle my ipad up while I was taking notes on it, so I don't have to hunch over on my desk. However, with me having to lean on the actual ipad to write, I couldn't find a stand durable enough that can support that weight without bending the stand downward. Even desk elevation platforms still required me to lean over it facing down bc of their flat designs which also caused me to have upper back/ shoulder pain.I had the previous model of the mstand for my laptop for about 3 years now, and thought why not. The mstand I previously had was still just as sturdy as the day I first got it, so I knew I wouldn't have an issue with long-term durability. I know this company offers separate stands for ipads, but I decided to purchase another laptop mstand for my ipad because the angle of it was exactly what I wanted (plus, adjustable angles are only convenient if you're using your tablet only for viewing purposes imo). This item, being fixed at my preferred angle and being incredibly well made with sturdy metals, allows me to lean on my ipad all I want to jot down notes which saves my back like nothing else. Also, a plus is that it just looks and feels amazing. It's pretty much made out of the same metal and finish as my apple products, so it's heavy-duty and doesn't shift around at all.I was especially impressed because this new design fixed all the problems I had with my previous design. The previous design has a slightly more elevated angle, which might not be as comfortable for some people, but this new design is lowered just a tiny bit to put less pressure on the back of your elbows while typing. Also, with the previous design I was always annoyed because the sticky rubber pieces to prevent the metal-on-metal scratching of my laptop kept falling off. However, with this new design, they increased the size of the rubber and thinned it out so that it can't fall off at all. Overall the design just feels a lot more durable and sleek.I will definitely be recommending this to my colleagues!

At first I was little skeptical about this product even though I saw many good reviews about it. At least I was not thinking that it could work as a heat sink and help to reduce heat. But now I've been using it for days and all of my doubts went away. It is not a review that I put once I got the product, but actually I am writing this after I used the product for days.1. First of all, it is very sturdy product. You can feel the build quality when you touch it.2. I was scared that my laptop can slide away from on it but the rubbers on it really keep my MacBook Pro 15" safe and secure. It doesn't slide at all. You need to put good amount of force to move your mac around on it. This is really nice!3. You can use your external keyboard and mouse since it will make some space on your desk. I like to organize my keyboard and mouse as how I feel comfortable with them and this stand is allowing me to do so.4. It lifts the computer so that you can sit more ergonomically and work better. You don't have to bend your head down to see the monitor or keyboard.This is really great feeling when you spend too much time like me coding and reading.5. At first I thought it was too small for a 15" laptop but when I got the product and use it, it was not that small. It is perfect fit for a 15" MacBook Pro.6. It looks like a part of your MacBook and doesn't stand out too much. The color and material are a very nice fit if you like Mac designs.7. It indeed works as a heat sink. Don't expect it to be an ice but it is usually quite cool because of its aluminum material and I see lower temperatures, which is great!8. I can write a lot of good things about this product but I think I have written enough. You can test it yourself when you get it.

I've gone through several stands over the last few years. I have a couch with a table to the side, and since I'm in IT and work at night a lot remotely on client systems, I keep my laptop running 24/7 and near me. So I've had a few stands for my various laptops that I've tried and used for a while, then replaced. I want something solid that I can just lean over and type on while it's in the stand, or something that's easy to get the laptop on and off of as I pull it to use on my lap.Since it's on a table, I also wanted some space for still being able to have some things on the table. And the space underneath this is perfect for one of my USB 3 external drives, my small logitech keyboard for my media center, and an LED control remote I keep by where I sit.Solid. VERY solid. I can type on this with no movement or bouncing of the laptop at all (15" retina macbook pro). It's easy to get on and off as well. The height is PERFECT for my needs and it looks good sitting here as well, whether the laptop is on it or off of it.They talk about the heat dissipation for the laptop but with the air between the laptop and the aluminum here, I'm not sure how much heat actually transfers, since it's already had to transfer off the laptop to the air to reach this in the first place. But there's no doubt it will absorb heat - we've had a week of 98 to 104 degree days here, and even when this was just in the back of the fed ex truck today for delivery, it got hot enough that when I opened it after taking it from the delivery person's hands, it was almost too hot to touch.Great looks, rock solid, a perfect choice for someone looking for a good laptop stand. Best I've ever had, and this one is definitely a keeper.

I write for a living. I use this stand with a MacBook Pro at the library. I have used it for over a year, more like a year and a half. Although there is a swivel model available, I'd not want it to swivel. If I was ever to work on a project with others and need a swivel, a small swivel round base, twenty bucks on Amazon, could be placed under the M-stand. LapWorks 12" Heavy Duty Swivel With Steel Ball Bearings for Indoor/Outdoor Use Or With Flat Panel Monitors and TV's I could also use it for plants, televisions, computer monitors at home, etc. I prefer that to a built-in swivel.I did knock one star off this review for the price. At forty-five clams, it's a little steep; when I bought mine quite a long time ago, the price was the same. Over time, one would hope the price would come down, but it does not. Although well-built, in aluminum, it doesn't have any moving parts, and one would anticipate a price reduction. Again, in my view, nearly fifty bucks is expensive.Others have written about the quality, which is exceptional. I applaud the makers of this stand and like it, personally, so much that I carry it in to the library with me. I have tried the simpler stands, the adjustable stands, the bookstands and picture stands--they all pale in comparison to this M stand. You can tell that I like it by the fact that I carry it with me daily. It weighs about one US pound.TIPS and THINGS TO THINK ABOUT: Some reasons to buy it, and tips, that are not what you will read in the reviews below; these are things I have found in many months of use to help you.Raising the laptop not only allows for better eye and neck ergonomics, but it gets my laptop out of the way of spills. I might spill my water, or the person sharing my library table might spill their drink, but alas, the computer is raised off the desk. Saved!It raises the front of your laptop about 2.5 to three inches, and I find using the laptop keyboard difficult on this stand. Sure, it can be done, but it's just high enough, in my opinion, to make it hard to rest forearms and elbows on the table for prolonged typing. I much prefer, and use exclusively now, a bluetooth keyboard, like the Apple one, on the desk top. Apple Wireless Keyboard MC184LL/B I can use a thin wrist rest with it, like this one from Grifiti, which I cannot when I am trying to type on the laptop's own keyboard. Grifiti Slim Wrist Pad 12 Black Nylon Surface Non-Skid Neoprene Base Wrist Rest Apple® Wireless Keyboard, Anker, Macally, Logitech, GYMLE, Gear Head, Genius, SIIG, Solidtek, Perixx, Verbatim, HP and other 12 Inch Slim Keyboards Others have reviewed that they have no issues typing on the laptop itself; this is something you will need to test for yourself as the M Stand is not adjustable.When I use the men's room (you'll find this funny, I'm sure...), I have my messenger bag, and this stand, which I carry by hand. Where do I put it? On the urinal dividers between urinals. It's a perfect U-shape, and I can rest it on top of the divider. The U comes in handy if you want to put it over anything--a chair back, a shelf edge, etc. --for storage. I'm ashamed to say, I don't know where a woman could hang it in the ladies room.The open hole in the back of it is fantastic for cable organization, power cord and mouse cable, any USB devices, and frankly, having this stand and all the cables through the hole makes it quite hard to steal. It's daunting for a library thief to see all the cables back there and imagine getting hung up in the cable and stand if they were to take your laptop; they just prefer a grab and go. And importantly, I have my Kensington laptop lock cable also through the hole in the stand, then into the computer, so it's not like someone will steal my M stand or the computer. Here's my cable: Kensington 64068F MicroSaver Notebook Lock and Security Cable (PC/Mac) It fits neatly into the round hole opening. I also have a Kensington combination lock for laptops, and it, too, fits through the hole. The hole is 1.5 inches diameter.Okay, another benefit is the opening of the stand toward the front--the front of the U, if you will. It is 2.25 inches high. Some stands have no front opening, if you get my meaning. They are simply blocks or steps; this one has a U shape that allows an opening in the front. Great for tucking things that you wouldn't want just lying around on the public library desktop: cell phone, Mp3 player, hard drive (which I leave connected to the USB port). When I leave for a moment to use the bathroom (there's the bathroom again; you'd think I spent my whole day in the bathroom!), you can tuck your bluetooth keyboard under there rather than leaving it right out on the desk. I throw my mousepad over it, and it's a small but tangible amount of increased security provided by the hidden tucking front "shelf" of the M stand. One could even stash food--peanuts, M&M bags, trail mix, a candy bar--under there since most libraries don't allow eating food. But, I'd never do anything against the rules like that...not in a million years. I don't even know how I came up with that idea of stuffing food under there.This stand is stable, it is just the right height for me (5 foot 9 inches, normal build) and is truly a great item. I have used my larger laptop--17 inch Toshiba--on it also; if the front of the larger computer is rounded plastic, it will have a tendency to "jump" the little shelf rubberized "lip" on the front of this unit, though. You might need to add something that provides friction to the front edge of a larger notebook to prevent this jumping off the stand with gravity and jarring, if you understand my meaning. A flat fronted larger computer will not have an issue, even up to 17 inches like mine. The stand will handle a 7 lb. computer.I hope you enjoy the M stand as much as I do. I may buy another one now that I see M stand making swiveling ones and height adjustable ones and other such complexity that I do not need or want; just my luck, they'll stop making this simple and effective model that I favor for some "updated" piece of junk. Yes, I may need to buy one more of these.Cheers and happy computing.

Purpose:For home and office use specifically: this is not meant to be a portable stand. It is sturdy and makes a great addition to any workspace. My 2018 MacBook Pro 13 inch touchbar laptop first perfectly. The space gray is almost exact. It is not adjustable but keeps the laptop at eyelevel for using at a desk. It really works well for those who would like to use it with dedicated assossories such as a mouse and keyboard.I researched for days and I’m happy I bought this because the quality is A+. It does not feel cheap and once it arrives, you’ll understand why it is so popular. I work at home and also as a university student I have struggled with neck pain from always looking down. This keeps the screen elevated so that it’s at eye level. It allows me to easily use a keyboard and mouse without having to readjust the screen. After searching for days and going through multiple stands, I believe this is the best quality stand for the price. I am glad I went with this specific model, the lines are clean, it’s aesthetically pleasing and functional. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to use their computer as a monitor with a separate mouse and keyboard.Cons:It’s not meant to be portable, and although that would be a good option for anyone wanting to take it to the library and travel; this item is heavy and sturdy. It would not travel well. Also as mentioned, the stand elevates the computer at a height where you would need a separate mouse and keyboard. It would not be functional to use your laptop to type or the trackpad while on this stand.Overall I am glad I bought this item first before another. It is a high quality assessory that I believe will get good use and last for years. Definitely would recommend.

スペースグレーを購入しました。これまで同種のスタンドをいくつか見たり買ったりしましたが、MacBookのスペースグレーより色が濃いものばかりでした。それに対し、本製品はMacBookのスペースグレーとほぼ同じ色合いです。アップした写真はやや色が合わないように見えますが、実物はここまで色違いではありません。全く同じではないものの、再現性・違和感のなさでは一番です。これだけでも満足度高めです。なお、スタンドとしては特に可も不可もありません。価格重視で色合いを気にしないのであれば他製品をお勧めします。

I have both types of this exact laptop stand - the one that adjusts and the one that doesn't. I bought the basic one after I received the adjustable stand as a gift.Both stands are excellent. The non-adjusting one is actually sleeker looking - it's like a modified 'c' with a nice circle port at the back to thread your cables through. The height is perfect.The adjustable stand is easy to change with a horizontal sliding toggle. But honestly, once it's set, I have never actually changed it. I use the space behind it to tidily store some accessories (headphones, charger).The Space Grey is a cool colour - like a magnesium/titanium colour. It's modern-looking and cleans your computing area to a state of almost zen!These are sturdy stands and I highly recommend them.

Must buy, super built quality!
