    Deceptively simple

    • Written by from Temple Terrace

    OK, this is just two little notched pieces of plastic.
    However, it's incredibly versatile, takes up no space, allows an iPad (with or without a cover) to be stood up at just the right angle.
    I find myself liking this a lot, even though It is, "just" two little notched pieces of plastic.
    Exceptionally well thought out.

    Great Portability and Perfect Design

    • Written by from Powell

    I bought the Arrowhead Universal stand for the portability. The stand is compact and will fit in my Incase travel case for on the go purposes. Very satisfied!

    Excellent Stand…

    • Written by from Ridgefield Park

    Not too heavy, yet very sturdy. Works especially well on uneven surfaces such as a car's dashboard. A must buy…

    Good stand, but be aware of cable concerns

    • Written by from Seattle

    Slightly disappointing although pretty much as expected.

    The biggest problem is that if you want the iPad vertically in the high angle position, and need to charge the iPad, and still have the Home button at the bottom, there is not enough clearance for the power connector. Not only does it force the cable into almost a right angle at the connector, which is never good for durability, but the connector is tall enough that it pushes the stand up slightly so that the front of the stand is about 2mm off the table. This creates even more pressure and strain on the connector. This can be partially solved by turning the iPad upside down, but if you want to pipe music out of the audio out port as I am right now, the audio out port is on the opposite side of the iPad from the power connector so that neither side works well in the stand. In the end, the iPad works best in horizontal position in this stand if either port has a cable coming out of it.

    When used in the low angle position, where the iPad simply rests on the two loose pieces, it can take a few seconds to align all the pieces precisely enough to avoid a wobbly iPad. As opposed to a more conventional stand where you just insert the iPad and go. Also, even though the stand has a rubberized edge, the lower edge of the metal iPad which contacts the table is slippery enough that you want to consciously avoid applying too much horizontal pressure with your hand or the whole arrangement can slip out of alignment.

    With all that in mind, I'm happy enough with it. I bought it because it's small and travels well. At times I will want to use the iPad as a display unit for slide shows, and for that I think I need to buy another stand with a built-in power dock.

    The Perfect Stand

    • Written by from Durham

    This is the perfect stand in price, durability, & functionality. I was skeptical initially, but quickly discovered I made the right decision for me. I'm more than happy with my purchase.
