    Amazing product

    • Written by from Richmond Hill

    This is an amazing product, especially for heat sink; I could record my screen, play a game, watch a video, and use Final Cut Pro all at the same time and there was barely any noise from the fan. Overall I highly recommend this product.

    Looks Awesome on my Desk

    • Written by from Newport News

    I love this stand. It sets next to my 24" montior. I have a belking hub set up so all I do is plug in 1 USB cable, speaker cable, monitor cable, and power. Then I have a powerful and easy to use dual-monitor setup like a desktop. Then pop out 3 cables and i'm on the go. Priceless for graduate work!

    You don't know you need this until you buy it!

    • Written by from Hillsboro

    I've been using a TwelveSouth Bookarc to hold my MacBook Pro, then taking the MBP out of the Bookarc when I needed to use the MBP display along with my Thunderbolt display. The mStand makes this unnecessary; much as I love TwelveSouth products, this is what I should have bought from the beginning.

    The stand is heavy and well-made ... no sliding around, even when you slide the laptop on at an angle. It is big; it tends to 'swallow' my 11" MacBook Air. If you own a 13" Air or a 13" or 15" MacBook Pro, this is an indispensable accessory. Even if you're using your laptop without a display, the elevation you gain from the stand is worth the investment, providing you're also willing to spring for a bluetooth keyboard and trackpad or mouse.

    mStand for MacBook

    • Written by from Kennesaw

    Just received my mstand and it's very sturdy. I purchased it to have a more ergonomic workspace as I am having neck issues. It raises my MacBook screen by 6 inches. I wish it had an adjustable height in case you are taller or shorter. This is a major improvement ergonomically for me. It matches my MacBook perfectly and is just as sleekly designed with sturdiness in mind. Seems to be a great product.

    A little better than I expected

    • Written by from Indian Trail

    You can get a very good idea of how this stand looks and how it works based on the pictures on it's page, so no surprises there. I was, however, surprised that the laptop is elevated a little higher than expected (a good thing!). It looks really good, seems very sturdy and I like that the laptop doesn't sit flat on top of it - allows the weight of the computer to lean in towards you as opposed to balanced level on top so it's less likely to actually tip over backwards if it were accidentally hit.. Also, rubber feet don't allow any slippage at all. I feel good about my computer being on it - no worries!

    Long Lasting and Looks Good

    • Written by from BROOKLINE

    What more can you ask for a product than for it to be sturdy, good looking, and work with a multitude products?

    The mStand is a fantastic piece of hardware that I've been using for quite some time. I have loved it so much that I now recommend it daily to the thousands of users I support.

    I have yet to hear one negative thing about it. Why? It just works.

    Transforms the Macbook!

    • Written by from Modesto

    I own the mStand 360, which is a new version of this stand with a swivel base, it's AMAZING! Before owning this, my neck would hurt from looking down at the computer screen, now the screen is at eye level and no longer hurts my neck. The area under the stand stores my keyboard to avoid cluttering up desk space. The rubberized feet avoid scratching on the bottom of my Macbook and desk. Finally the stand blends in with the aluminum of the Macbook. I definitely recommend this product to anyone thinking about buying it.

    Quality Stand, Worth the Cost

    • Written by from Jackson

    Very practical product. Bought this for college use, has worked as advertised/better than. Great design that can take a lot of heavy use. If you can afford the wireless keyboard and the mouse/ trackpad, I highly recommend it if you type a lot.

    97% satisfied

    • Written by from Roskilde

    I love everything about this stand. I really delivers.

    Only bad thing i have to say is that the macbook is standing on some rubber like feets, and it prevents the stand from absorbing some of the heart. Although it aborbs some heat, but it could absorb way more.

    Everything else about this product is flawless

    Shaky and Jittery on stand-up desk

    • Written by from Billings

    I purchased this stand to raise by retina macbook pro to same height as my thunderbolt display on my Nextdesk Terra adjustable height desk. When typing on external keyboard either on desk or on keyboard tray, this stand vibrates excessively such that text is very jittery. I have returned this stand and will try one of the other recommendations.

    Did not work with 17 inch laptop

    • Written by from Franklin

    The computer screen bounced every time that lightly typed on the keyboard of my 17 inch MacBook Pro. I actually felt motion sick after awhile with the movement of the screen. Perhaps this works better with a smaller laptop, but I am definitely not keeping this stand.
