We used each model with a variety of laptops—from compact 11-inch Chromebooks to bulky 15-inch gaming laptops, weighing anywhere from 3 to 7 pounds—on a variety of desks and tables.

The Nexstand Laptop Stand, a former portable laptop stand pick, is remarkably sturdy and compact when folded. These days, lots of us use our laptops for work - so make sure you can do so comfortably with our range of handy laptop trays and stands.

Because of this I am constantly shifting laptops through the day, and wondering if there is some sort of stand that would raise up high enough to place another laptop underneath and keep both active. The stand is suitable for all portable iPad models, Microsoft Surface, Galaxy and other tablets up to 12mm thick.

The Universal version doesn't have an adhesive, so it's a better choice if your laptop's air vents are on the bottom. Note that because of its wide angle, the Tonmom’s clamp at the front might not be able to hold very thick laptops in place. And although there’s a prominent Lifelong logo on the base of the stand, it’s less obnoxious than the logos on other stands. There's space underneath for storing notebooks, a keyboard, and other stuff that tends to clutter my desk. But if a laptop stand just isn’t in your budget, you can use pretty much anything to raise your laptop screen to eye level.

The ThingyClub Adjustable Desk Mounting Bracket allows for flexible positioning of your laptop up to 17" and your monitor up to 27" on a desktop or other surface, such as windowsills.

But if you’re going to use a laptop stand at your desk every single day, it’s worth spending extra for one that allows you to adjust it to fit your exact needs, remains sturdy, and looks nice. Height: To see how much height adjustment you might need, place your laptop on a stack of books or other objects until the top of the screen is about 1 to 2 inches above eye level. The open-back design also provides a handy location to stash cables and other unsightly desk necessities; many cheaper stands are completely open and don’t offer room to hide anything. It offers a small range of heights, and it's best used in conjunction with a separate keyboard and mouse.
