5.0 out of 5 stars Great laptop mat!, 21 April 2010
This review is from: Targus Lap Chill Mat 17-inch (Electronics)
I have a well spec'ed 17.4 laptop and this mat lets me use my laptop in bed,on the sofa,in my lap etc.

Because my laptop is 17.4 and not 17, it slightly protrudes to the left and right sides,but it is still comfortable to carry around while still on the stand.

I've never had a reason to turn on the 2 fans, because I did not buy the stand for an overheating laptop,but for one that does not like soft surfaces as its intake fan is on the bottom. But if you decide to turn them on, its as easy as plugging an USB cable and the noise is not loud. Also the fans blow the air up, meaning they provide the laptop with fresh cool air, rather than sucking out the hot air and torturing the bottom placed laptop fans.

I also like the soft neoprene bottom of the mat and it feels very comfortable when you place it on your lap.

The top is covered in holes plastic with 4 rubber "feet" , stopping the laptop from sliding. The top flexes a little when you press it,... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent product, 5 April 2011
This review is from: Targus Lap Chill Mat 17-inch (Electronics)
Build Quality: Very good, can be bent if you squeeze it, but never under the simple pressure of a laptop with hands resting on it. Think of it as a big ring binder with holes in the top, and two fans attached in the middle (blowing upwards).

Noise: If you're the kind of person who works in a dead quiet room, then the noise emmited from the fans is noticeable. But then again so is the noise of the wind outside. If you have music on, or are working infront of a tv, or even in an office, you won't hear them at all. The fans are about half as loud as my laptop fans when my laptop heats up. So in reality having them on can actually cuts the fan noise by 50%.

That being said, if you really can't stand fan noise you can just not have the fans on. Given that the air circulates well under the laptop, that your machine is raised slightly by rubber pads and that there are more ventilation holes in the product than on a cheese grater, the laptop is well ventilated just by...

5.0 out of 5 stars "Cool" product (...sorry ...couldn't resist....;-), 30 Nov 2010
This review is from: Targus Lap Chill Mat 17-inch (Electronics)
Bought one of these to accompany new laptop, having already tried another cooler that was too small for my bigger laptop (17.3" screen).
Other reviews for this praise highly and I have to agree, it really does do what it says on the tin....plus, unlike many other cooling pads/fans, it is actually very comfortable to have on your lap, due to "flexi-feel" neoprolene material.

My wife thought it so good for her (extremely noisy fan-blowing) laptop, that she actually "borrowed it permanently", so I am now having to buy another one!
Have to be honest though, cos it really has silenced her machine tremendously.....now .....laptop done...next the wife ... lol!!!
