Rain Design 10032 mStand Laptop Stand, Silver (Patented)

Perfect for the desktop

Build quality is absolutely phenomenal, it looks and feels almost like an apple product. Id give it 5 if it was adjustable but unfortunately one size does not fit all. Works for me though

I love this stand. Its sturdy and it matches my MacBook. Its a good height and it holds the laptop securely. I use the open space underneath the stand to store a wireless trackpad. I wish I had this years ago... I spent a lot of years with a make-shift version of a laptop stand using phone stands for the job. This is much better!

Sturdy, heavy duty, well designed.

Short version...if you own a Macbook Pro and use it at a desk with a real keyboard, you need this.

Es como si a un iMac le quitan el soporte y se lo ponen a un macbook pro. Un soporte bien acabado, de aluminio, robusto y con la forma de la base del iMac, de manera que puedes utilizar accesorios hechos para el iMac bajo este soporte. Yo por ejemplo tengo una barra de sonido xtrememac y encaja a la perfección bajo el soporte.

This doesnt hold a candle to the original mStand. The original is very robust and you know that your laptop is secure. This round base leaves a smaller foot print and its easy to rock off of the circular base and touch the edges of the stand (think of a tricycle tipping). When I flipped the stand upside down and spin the disc, it is loose. The set screw was seated as far as it will go from the factory so there is no room to tighten the base; its machined with too much slop. Aluminum is milled, its not stamped like steel so there is no reason that its not a tighter tolerance. When spinning the base, you can feel a rough spot (grind) every 1/8th of a rotation (for those of you that might say the noise is only because its upside down, I discovered the noise while it was sitting right-side up). When the stand is rotated, the laptop swivels much too easily and there is no means to tighten the base to increase a slight friction. The stand feels much more flexible than the older mStand as well. Overall, less premium that previous models.

Works great

Rain is very good for me, it is easy to move my laptop from my home office to any room where I wish to work. It is the correct height for best keyboard & screen access.

The gray is nothing like the space gray on the mac book.
