    AmazonBasics Ventilated Adjustable Laptop Stand

    • They still stick up and keep my laptop from sliding off, but my wrists are safe
    • I could not use this product with any of my laptops because the very high flanges on the lower edge which keep laptops from from sliding are so high that they impede using my keyboard without hurting my wrists
    • My wrists can feel them but they don't bother me much
    • The ventilation stand works fine, but the tabs in the front that keep the laptop from sliding off of it are too high and they hurt my wrists.
    • Love the ventilation but I am not happy about the two end pieces that hold the laptop in place...they hurt my wrists when typing.
    • In the beginning, I did use it, but it did not take long before my wrists were uncomfortable because of the metal placements in the front for it
    • At the lowest angle, it still seems to strain my wrists
    • I wouldn't buy if you're trying to really focus on work and not balancing your laptop one one of the wrist-stabbing pieces so you can work in peace
    • One drawback though is that the ledge that holds the computer is a bit too high and irritates my wrists.
    • However, will all the different adjustments possible, it is a great stand for having the screen exactly where you want it, or keeping your wrists comfortable all day!
    • Cools the laptop due to the ventilated makeup, but the bottom part that hold your laptop is too long and hurts my wrist when typing
    • The pads that hold the laptop in place are right where your wrists sit, which hurts if you don't fit your wrist perfectly into the little groove
    • The little peices that keep the laptop bothers my wrists when I try to type.

    • But the little things that stick up in the front hurt the wrists like other reviews talked about
    • The brackets that hold the laptop in place scratched my wrists
    • I am constantly knocking my wrists on the tabs, as I type
    • It's really heavy to lug around, the metal (type) material is kind of loud when I pick it up to move to another office for a meeting, and the 2 laptop holders at the bottom hurt my wrist when I'm typing
    • If you want to type on the laptop itself, it is terrible because the two metal tabs that support the laptop are tall and positioned right where your wrists sit - uncomfortable and likely to cause repetitive motion injuries.
    • But the little things that stick up in the front hurt the wrists like other reviews talked about
    • Oh, in regards to people complaining about the little bars that hold the laptop on the stand, don't rest your wrists on the laptop/stand!
    • So, I have the stand upside down and closed to avoid bloody wrists and typing at 90 degrees!
    • The two “feet” that keep the laptop from sliding off are higher than my laptop’s thickness and one of my wrists ends up resting on top of a “foot”, this causes wrist marks and discomfort.
    • Attach another keyboard instead, or your wrists will not feel good, especially if you have been typing for awhile.
    • Should be redesigned maybe with a gel cushion to support your wrists
    • and I can see how they would hurt the wrists, but I use a wireless keyboard and mouse at work so that is never a problem

    • , only issue is that little tabs in the front to hold laptop hurt my wrist.
    • After a while, it irritates my wrists.
    • so I have no complaints about the two stoppers on the bottom of the stand hurting my wrists, like I have seen from other reviewers
    • Very nice item, and has definitely helped my new laptop out!The item's only real fault are the braces on the bottom that jut out and can make my wrists a little uncomfortable, but it looks to be an unavoidable thing, given that's what the laptop rests on.
    • Love the ventilation but I am not happy about the two end pieces that hold the laptop in place...they hurt my wrists when typing.
    • My laptop is a little on the thin side and the front stoppers come up past it., because of this my wrists are at times on top of of them, not very comfortable
    • The metal at the bottom is necessary to hold the laptop in place but hurts your wrist if you try to type on the laptop keyboard.
    • I know that "proper" typing technique your arms a raised but for those of us that don't keep the arms/wrists off the table or those that take breaks to read the screen it will hurt your wrists.
    • but unfortunately it hurts his wrists
    • The two metal tabs that keeps the laptop from sliding downwards will damage your wrist
    • I have a macbook air, so it has a pretty slim profile and I bump my wrists up against the stand (and it doesn't feel good)
    • Item is great except when you put laptop on there are 2 metal pieces that inhibit your wrists while typing.
    • when i do i personally dont have any issues with the metal rubbing my wrists and chafing me
    • It sticks up above my keyboard and actually hurts my wrists
    • Someone mentioned the barriers hurting their wrist when they're typing, and it's true, it's quite a nuisance, but just wear long sleeves or lift your wirsts
    • If I had a complaint it would be that the two support brackets stand above my laptop keyboard and irritate my wrists as I use the keyboard.
    • The catches at the bottom irritate my wrists (I don't type "the right way") and are too high for my laptop to type comfortably
    • It is literally imposable to use this stand, the wrists are constantly lying on the lower sharp holders that pierce the veins and cause pain and terrible discomfort
    • however the arm rests poke out and scratch my wrists, definately a design flaw that should have been taken care of
    • I might try to rig some form of soft wrist protection to cover and pad those two spots.
    • but the I, K and 8 button don't work
    • Does a decent job holding up my HP Envy 17t-3200
