Rain Designs iLap is a versatile laptop stand that keeps your laptop cool, and at the same time, lets you work comfortably on your lap as well as on your desk. Made of aluminum with sand-blasted and silver anodized finish to match the Apple Powerbook G4, iLap acts as a cool sink to conduct heat away from your laptop while airflow underneath dissipates the heat, so your laptop stays cooler and lasts longer. iLap also keeps you cool by lifting the heated bottom of your laptop off your lap and is padded with cushions for extra comfort. For better ergonomics, iLap raises the screen and tilts your keyboard to a more comfortable angle, so there is less strain on your neck, shoulders, and wrists. Winner of Laptop Magazine Editors Choice Award, 'This is the most versatile laptop stand you can buy.' iLap comes in five sizes: 12-inch, 14-inch, 15-inch, 15-inch widescreen, and 17-inch widescreen for Apple and PC laptops.

Summary: Have bought two
Comment: I bought an ILap stand for myself a year ago to use with my MacBook Pro, partly to dissipate heat. I use it every day while working long hours on a magazine. The second ILap was a gift for my son-in-law, who also uses his laptop constantly for his job. I looked at other styles by other manufacturers (with fans, etc.) but this is by far the best choice. When I spoke by phone with an Apple tech this year about a battery issue, she told me SHE has the same ILap and recommended it. No-brainer.

Summary: So Glad I Chose this One
Comment: I recently purchased my first Mac, a MacBook Pro. LOVE IT! So, next I wanted a laptop cooler or platform for laptop use. I shopped a lot of them. Originally, thought I wanted a laptop cooler with fans, but based on reviews it didnt sound like they are all they are cracked up to be. I finally decidd on the iLap stand by Rain Design. It came today and oh man, it's great. I've been using it all afternoon with my new Mac. The Mac itself is staying cooler. The aluminum stand apparently does pull heat away from the computer and helps cool the machine. The stand is comfortable on my lap and it keeps my legs cool while working. The padded wrist rest is comfortable and protects from the sharp corner edge on the MacBook Pro (one thing I dont like about the MacBook Pro). All in all, this is a great product. A little pricey, but worth it. I'm going to order one for my wife now. I feel confident you will be pleased too.

Summary: It saves me from the sharp corners!
Comment: I only bought this for one reason. The sharp corners on my macbook pro were killing my wrists. I know I'm not supposed to be sitting down with my wrist resting on the edge, but that's how it is. This thing is saving my wrist, and that's that!

Summary: Great Product, but a bit pricey?
Comment: I love what the product does, but I feel like for the price I paid it leaves something to be desired.
Starting with the good stuff - the iLap is the perfect accessory for the MacBook Pro and has made it so much easier for me to work by reducing neck and wrist strain. The clean lines (without the wrist pad) compliment those of the laptop. It's great that they included the gripper pads to be used in case the feet of your laptop wear out. I'm definitely glad I have it.
The not-so-good stuff - I was a little disappointed when I first took it out of the box. Not impressed by the cover on the wrist rest. Looks like the same material used on a cheap sofa pillow. It produces this clattering noise (from the back leg) when you're carrying it. I have to wonder if the fact that you can't secure that leg is going to cause a problem later on down the line.
Maybe the solution to making this the PERFECT $50 product is to snug up the connections on the back leg and include a selection of snazzy "slip covers" for the wrist rest. Or maybe I should get busy and make my own? ;-)

Summary: Ignore Negative Reviews-iLap is Great!
Comment: If you are thinking of buying a laptop stand, your search is over.
The iLap is an excellent product that will extend the life of your computer. Let's look at the big picture: the iLap might seem expensive at first, but consider how much you would pay to replace your laptop. The iLap is designed so you can use your computer in a more comfortable way. Plus, it pulls heat from your laptop, and heat is the enemy of any electronic device. A cooler computer runs more efficiently and should last longer.
As you read some of the other reviews, you see that some people have given the iLap a good score, but they complain about the price. That is short
sighted. I find the iLap to be a simple and effective product, that will give me more quality time with my computer. That just makes good sense, and I think the iLap is fairly priced.
As far as quality, I have had no problems with construction or function. This stand is solid and sturdy, and the cushions stay in place. The front one is easily removed and reattached when necessary. The iLap is comfortable to use either on a lap or a desk.
I noticed right away that my Mac runs cooler than ever, and the fan rarely comes on. That shows that the aluminum base removes heat from the computer. Honestly, I looked at every laptop stand on the market, and the iLap is clearly the best choice. Whether you have a PC or a Mac, you can choose an iLap to best fit your computer.
My iLap is a superior product and is fairly priced. My advice: buy it, and don't pay attention to those negative reviews. I like mine so much that I bought one for my daughter who just graduated from college!
The iLap is a lot like my Mac: IT JUST WORKS!
