Really sturdy. Its a little tough to open, but not impossible. I would recommend it.

love this thing! This riser is very sturdy and does not flop around. Very happy with purchase.

The stiffness of the hinges really should be adjustable. Mine are so stiff that I have to stand up and manhandle this thing to adjust ot. Its enough force to actually crush the laptop screen, so in order to lower the stand I have to remove the laptop.

Good, sturdy

I now have two! One for the office and one when I’m working from home. No substitute especially with f you like to stand and work.

Very ergonomic. Hinges are a bit stiff, but holds device in place perfectly. Nice setup for office/desk/laptop.

This stand is perfect for my work set up. I have an HP Elite laptop, it weighs about 5 pounds and is just a little bigger than the stand, but fits on the stand fine. It raises my laptop up to a comfortable level for me, so the screen is close to eye level while I work or conduct Zoom meetings, which is important so Im not flashing nose hair during meetings. I also use it for my tablet (first photo) when Im using that for Zoom meetings. It feels substantial and solid. The rubberized pads on the bottom keep the stand from moving around and the pads on the surface where I put my laptop keep it in place during normal working activities. Theres minimal movement when I type, but for me, its not much of a distraction. The joints are a little stiff, so some people may have trouble setting it up, but for a burly guy, like myself, no trouble at all. It folds up relatively flat which makes it easy to travel with or put away when not in use. Everyone is different though, what works for me may not for you, but Im a fan of the BoYata stand.

I just started to use it today, but am liking it a lot so far. Helps me sit with better posture. My daughter bought it for me for my birthday! I hesitate to give it 5 stars since I just started using it today, but its easy to use and seems very sturdy.

This is one solid platform! Well built, metal and functional. Using is for a 17 laptop.

The item is very functional and with clean lines. It is sturdy and I like the fact that it allows for heat dissipation. Very compact also.
