My Place Myplace Laptop Table Notebook Workstation

As Seen On TV! This laptop workstation folds flat, adjustable angles, two position fold out legs, built in LED light, stable & lightweight. Dimensions 22.5"x3.75"x13". Laptop workstation is 7.2 lbs.

I use this for reading in bed. My hands would get tired holding the book up to the correct height. It's a bit bulky but it just works so much better. My son likes it for the same reason as well.

PROS: does keep your lap cool after your computer has been running hot, portability is awesome as long as you take the time to ensure that all four legs are extended fully and snapped into place, for portability the weight of this table is very good and BECAUSE it does offer portability for what it is it is very worth the money. The varies angles allow for multiple uses cookbooks, book reading, raising your knees, working off the floor etc.

CONS: I rated this 4 out of 5 due to the solely right handed design. I am a freelance graphic artist and I really enjoy the ability to take my workstation with me, I CAN use my right hand for the computer mouse but I CANNOT use my right hand to draw or design graphics :\ Other than that it does a good job with keeping my lap cool, it just would have been nice had the MyPlace design team taken into consideration left handed users who would be incapable of using their right hand for drawing purposes. Yes the table is lightweight so therefore does not offer PERFECT stability, if you have a larger computer (above 13 inches) then you can STILL use this table, so long as you lift both table and mousepad section at the same angle. But that gets rid of the mousepad functionality.


So for the average 13" RIGHT handed user I would say for price and value it would be 5 stars. Unfortunately I am a LEFT handed artist so I rate it 4 stars.

I love this thing! It's durable and well thought out. I usually use it folded up completely on a table so I can stand and work comfortably (better for the back). Propping it up is nice, my complaint is this: there's one support for it so the laptop has to be scooted to the right some. Nothing major - just the dent in the Ferrari.

The light is nice to have (though unremarkable).

The grooves on which the laptop rests do a good job of keeping the laptop cool.

The mouse pad is nice and adequate.

Very unobtrusive, stores back in the box easily.

Can sit on your lap comfortably.

Overall if you think you might like it you will! My wrists are thanking me and my back is as well.

The product was delivered quickly and did everything it said it would without any complications.

I got this as a birthday present from my partner who knew I liked using my laptop both in bed and on the couch. I had seen this product in Target before, and it had always piqued my curiosity, but I never really got around to buying it myself. Turns out that my instinct was dead on.

When I set up the MyPlace, I noticed that unless you're working on a flat, sturdy surface like a table, the laptop and stand would not remain stable (and using a MyPlace on a table defeats the point). The unit was up to high for my wrists to remain comfortable for long, and even though the idea of including a built-in mouse pad is nice, when I'm mobile with my laptop, I don't usually have a separate mouse. This causes everything to feel somewhat off-center and distracting. I also felt way more limited in my range of movement with legs on either side of me, and moving it made me highly doubt MyPlace's claim that it's "lightweight."

MyPlace also comes with a built-in LED reading light. I appreciated the thought, but found that the light was hard on the eyes, lit things poorly, and was somewhat harsh.

For the first time that I can remember, I took a gift back to the store. However, I could not continue to use MyPlace for its intended use -- it's simply not a practical solution for my needs.
