SLT003 Laptop Stands

Pictures don't show it but this is a very well built stand the tripod tube and legs are big and firm does not bend and can handle the weight of my Dell Precision laptop that fits perfect on it. Packaging is a little lacking and had some scratches from the top moving around in the box against the tripod but otherwise good deal for the quality comparable to instand brand that runs for more than 4x as much. I'm putting tripod caster on it to make it a wow for around the house and the garage when connecting to my cars for programming.

this is very sturdy and gives me every angle I need with my laptop in my studio

I bought this for several reasons.First, I do a lot of public speaking and wanted a place to practice. It works fine for that and feels a lot more like an actual podium than a music stand does.Second, I wanted a standing desk. But the good adjustable, hydraulic, electronic ones are $1200, which is categorically out of my budget. I unpacked this thing and realized, though, that I'd essentially gotten myself a standing desk (and a much more compact one at that) for $50 bucks. I can't put my 21" Imac on there, but I can put my laptop for typing. I'm also going to use it for reading and writing.Finally, I sometimes have to use a projector for presentations, and this thing works perfectly as a projector stand.Could not be more pleased. I wrote this because I was shocked to see it only had 2 starts. Mine looks great!

First of all: It fits a Macbook Pro 15" (the unibody design that's been out for the past 4ish years) just great, with a little room to move around. I kind of doubt it fits a 17", but maybe. The surface has raised edges, with cutouts on the front and top right for things like a power cable and headphones. This is a much better solution for the classroom than putting your laptop on a music stands, which some of my classmates do sometimes. It makes me cringe. This stand solves that problem.I bought this for using my laptop or small synthesizers on stage during performances. It is heavy, but not too heavy...just enough to feel supportive. It's like a small PA system stand, with a tilting platform on top. I'll need to cut out some foam padding to put down so my keyboard fits on there nicely, but it will definitely work. The tightening mechanisms on the stand are all pretty well built, I'm not too worried about them failing.Assembling the stand from the packaging is easy without instructions, you just take off the metal rod and slide the platform onto the frame. However, out of the box, the platform is noticeably slightly bent at one corner, and the attachments to the stands were a little bent (I bent them back already). This concerned me. Can't give it five stars like that, but so far it seems like a reliable product. If my opinion changes in the future, I'll edit my review.

I ordered this tripod, when the unit arrived it was a used unit, horrible scratches all over the tripod and the base where you put the laptop was bent.I returned it and requested a replacement just to receive another unit and it was obvious that was not brand new, it also has scratches and the base laptop was bent as well. I will say the second unit has less damage, but still, is not a brand new item,The worse part was to discover the bad quality of manufacturing, one corner did not had a good finish and it had sharp edges close where your wrist will be in the natural position.I do not recommend to buy this unit to anyone.

The only problem is the clamp the holds the music rack up quit, so I had to use a hose clamp to hold it in place. Other than that I still use it every week.
