NEXSTANDK2 Laptop Stand for Desk, 8-Levels Adjustable Height Ergonomic Laptop Riser, Ventilated Computer Stand Holder Compatible with MacBook Air Pro, Dell, 10-17” Laptops

I've been using this laptop stand consistently since 2019, primarily for hot-desking in the office and on remote sites, about four days a week. It's proven to be a straightforward and practical piece of kit. I've used it with my Dell Precision 3590, and it's also accommodated about five other Dell and Lenovo laptops without any fitting issues.Setting it up and packing it away is simple, and adjusting the height is easy. It felt very stable for a good few years, though after over five years of regular use, it has developed a slight wobble. This hasn't stopped it from doing its job though. One practical benefit I've noticed is that raising the laptop off the desk helps with ventilation, keeping the machine cooler. When it comes to portability, it slots into my work bag easily and doesn't take up much room at all. The small protectors on the stand did fall off after a good few years, but honestly, they aren't really needed for it to function as intended.Pros:Easy to set up and put away.Simple height adjustment.Good for laptop cooling due to improved ventilation.Very portable and takes up minimal space.Cons:Stability can reduce slightly after many years of heavy use.Small protective parts may come off over time, though they don't impact function.

Great laptop stand, portable, very comfortable, adjustable height, and very useful. It's actually one of the few I tried that can work to lift the screen to the desired height while also being light and transportable.

This is now an essential part of my work travel bag. It folds down nice and small, is lightweight, and quick and easy to set up. I was a little worried when it first arrived that it was all plastic - but the build quality has been fine for me. The only thing I would love to see added is some small no-slip pads on the bottom, as it can slide around on glass or glossy desktop surfaces. Other than that, it works perfectly and I would highly recommend - particularly at the price point it's set at.

I recently purchased the APzek foldable stand which in all but name is the same as the much praised Roost. The former is £15, the latter £70. I have done a detailed review of it on Amazon. -The only small criticism I had on that otherwise phenomenal product was that the minimum height is around 22cm. It's not possible to lower it further.So here are my views on the Nexstand. Please see the photos for comparison.Build quality is good and the stand opens and closes effortlessly. It doesnt quite feel as solid as the APzek but I have no complaints about fit and finish.The Nexstand is slightly larger and perhaps 40 to 50 gramms heavier, not a huge margin but it may or may not make the difference between fitting in your bag or not. Check measurements.While the APzek has softer rubber protection on the clamps and front feet, the Nextand has what feels like soft plastic on the front feet and clamps. - The result is the Nexstand may slide more on smooth surfaces and the clamp may be slightly harder on the laptop. However, after using it no marks were left on my 15" 2019 XPS. - Still, worth bearing in mind longer term and I probably would advise to buy some self adhesive rubber tape to add a bit of protection and slip resistance.The Nexstand will adjust lower than the APzek (see photos) if that is important to you. It also has more levels between lowest and highest. The APzek has three, which I feel are perfectly adequate, minimum height aside.Clamp size is slightly larger on the Nexstand so if you have something like a gamers machine, that's probably the one to get. It comes with inserts (hard plasic) for very slim ultrabooks though I probably would'nt use those without adding some rubber protection//tape if you use an expensive machine.The bag it comes in a softer nylon sock style, the APzek's is more of a tent material. Both will do the job.So, which one to choose? As both are clearly made for travelling, my vote would probably go to the APzek. Essentially you are getting the Roost stand for £50 less (but in fairness I think £70 for that product is somewhat over priced) - It's slightly smaller and lighter and a smidgen sturdier though the Nexstand is by no means badly constructed. The APzek has better rubber parts compared with the more plastic ones on the Nexstand. Both probably benefit from a little added protection. The APzek is also a little cheaper though neither is expensive for what you get.If you have an unusually large (thick) laptop my choice would be the Nexstand. It also goes lower than the APzek so that is a consideration too.Both highly recommended.Hope this helps.

I'm consistently travelling on work. It is not just annoying but also painful when you travel most days of the year and irrespective of an airport or hotel, end up hunched, looking down at the laptop screen.This can be an excellent accessory as it does not take up as much space as the heavier metal options and is quite light. I worried if it would break during travel but placing it in a corner was suffiicient.PLUS - the height is adjustable and takes it higher than the metal laptop stands (i have three of the metal stands)metal stands are fine if you worry about toppling the stand and have less space for the base to be rested on than the two legs of this stand.GET THIS. You will not regret it if you have it in your wheeled cabin bag and just yearn for something to help you rid some neck pain. Fabulous way to have a smile on your face like they do in commercials (just that on this occasion, you are not getting paid to be the model but the smile is yours and genuine!)

I use this nearly all the time. It is very easily adjustable and is able to raise my laptop by a foot! There are many adjust points so you can use it for the height you need. The build is really very good: joints are sturdy and the polymer used is stiff: I can type on the laptop if needed and there is no shake. OK, you would not do this as the keyboard will slope when the laptop is on the stand, but, hey, it's possible!The stand is compact when folded and will easily stow away in a backpack. Also, the stand is relatively unobtrusive in use: it does not occupy much more table space than the laptop itself, and is visually light too.It's made working on my laptop a pleasure again, and no neck pain this time!
