Summary: Nice stand but beware
Comment: I was looking for a notebook stand for my Macbook Pro but I didn't want to pay too much, this Logitech product was the best cost/value I found. The stand itself is very simple, just a piece of plastic althought very nice looking but it is almost perfect for me. My big problem is that the MacBook Pro has the DVD Drive at the bottom and because of this is imposible to put or eject disks without manually lifting the notebook :(
It's not so much of a problem inserting the disks because you know "when" to lift the notebook but the problem is when for example I am burning a CD with Toast and the software automatically ejects the disk. This action make the cd stuck against the table and I have to manually lift the notebook and push the cd back in and then manually eject the cd again, this time having the notebook lifted of course.
Anyway, if you notebook's drive ejects CDs by its sides I think you will like it.
Price: $11.99 + shipping = $18.76
Value: 5/5
Usability: 3.5/5

Summary: Stylish
Comment: It accomodates my 15" Satellite in a very stylish way on my very cluttered desk.
Leaves the screen at perfect height and secures the laptop in its place.
I will surely recommend buying this product.

Summary: This is the one to choose ... seriously
Comment: I was concerned from the product photo that the Logitech Alto Express Notebook Stand wouldn't raise my notebook high enough, so I was tempted to go for one of the adjustable stands. I am very happy I chose the Logitech. The angle could not be more perfect, the manufacturer obviously knew exactly what was ergonomically correct when they designed the stand, the center of my screen is exactly in the middle of my field of view. When in use, the stand basically disappears. Despite a ridiculously high price for a piece of plastic, it does exactly what it should, so to me it was worth the price. The adjustable stands I've seen are fussy and wobbly. In particular, the xbrand has small wheels that could send the notebook flying off the edge of the desk if it is accidentally bumped. Almost every other brand raises the front edge too high. Some, like the xbrand have trap doors you have to open to access front-mounted controls. I think many manufacturers take a simple concept and try to complicate it. That is one thing no one will ever pin on Logitech! This stand is a totally simple design. My home office is probably a bit stylish but I absolutely need functionality ... I work at my computer 12 - 14 hours a day. I hated using my notebook before, now with an HP wireless keyboard and mouse and the Logitech Alto Express Notebook Stand I hardly know I'm not using my desktop PC. I think this notebook stand is the winning entry.
PROS: Perfect viewing angle, rock-solid support, looks beautiful
CONS: Hey, it's a three-dollar piece of plastic with an insane profit margin, but I'd rather pay more for something that is perfect than something that misses the mark.

Summary: Excellent purchase
Comment: Buying a laptop stand was recommended to me when I started working in my current office, and I am glad that I did. I bought this one because it was one of the cheaper options I could find, and I liked the way it looked. I am completely satisfied with this product, the only thing I would change if I could would be to make it adjustable height.

Summary: good deal a little pricey
Comment: It's plastic, but it does it's job and does it well and looks clean. It is highly priced for what it contains, but compared to other gimmicky stands-- it's affordable.
