Foldable, Portable and Affordable Laptop Stand
More and more people are now using a laptop [notebook] computer thanks to its good mobility, but for their many benefits there are potential issues. For example, putting a laptop computer on your lap for a long period of time can make your legs tired and uncomfortably warm. It's very easy for your expensive investment to be damaged by slipping off or tipping over. There are even risks involved due to harmful zero distance radiation that they emit. Some news on this is that this zero distance radiation could even affect fertility in men. Another big downside is your poor postural positioning (which is very rarely ergonomic – let's face it!), which can cause stress and contribute to potential injury in your neck, hands, arms, shoulders, legs, and back.
Supplied with a FREE carrying bag, The FOOTIME Laptop Stand is light in weight (only 3.5 lb), foldable, portable, and height-adjustable (min. ht: 22” and max. ht: 46.5”). Similar to a music stand, it's easy to fold and unfold. When opened, the two-piece (connected with 2 hinges) supporting board has a dimension of 14.5”x 11” and fits most laptop computers. Two elastic straps and their adjustable positions can firmly hold laptop without blocking its keys. An angled back support prevents laptop from tipping backwards.
Users can enjoy the FOOTIME Laptop Stand with their laptop computer when sitting on the lounge, in the backyard, at the airport, on campus, in the park, next to a wheelchair, in the studio or anywhere they cannot find a desk with the right height for support. Simply adjust it to the height you feel comfortable with and you are ready to type and surf! It's an ideal piece of equipment for the musician, business traveller, camper, student,
the physically-challenged, graphic designers, and
[insert what you do here].
Comments from experts and users:
Many of us have been taking laptop to gigs despite the paucity of acceptable options for placing and securing the things onstage. Until now. This super-light-weight yet secure stand folds up and stores in two compact carrying bags, can be adjusted to any height easily, even with the laptop strapped on - and yes, the straps are provided!
Thinking of using your notation program or PDF files for reading at the gig? Why not? Just add the Footime Page Turner USB footswitch...

I've received literally hundreds of requests over the past several years asking about where to find a laptop stand. If you're like me, finding a place to put your laptop while shooting on location is a constant aggravation. I have to admit that my laptop has taken a tumble a time or two. Until now I've been unable to find a suitable solution.
At long last I've found a great laptop stand! The stand is perfect for location work when you need to stay tethered while shooting. It's being marketed to musicians who need a laptop stand on stage, but it's also a great solution for tethered location shooting. What's more, its light, portable, and collapsible.

The stand came the same day that I needed to use it at a performance. I was a little nervous, as it was an untested element to my performance, but it worked wonderfully! I've been using a sound system monitor for several years and it was clunky at best. This is a far better solution.

Over the past few months, we've been creating a in-house studio for product reviews and sample mp3s. The laptop stand has been a great addition to the setup, providing a stable and easily adjustable platform for our recording computers.
