A laptop desk? It's actually pretty cool. Let's have a look
0:04
Dave Taylor here and I'm just chilling out on my couch doing what I do a lot which is
0:16
working on a laptop. Now, I work on laptops on my lap and you know what? It's not very
0:21
comfortable. There's a lot of reasons this doesn't really work. They're called laptops
0:25
but honestly, they don't really work well in that sort of situation. One of which is
0:30
that they tend to run hot and it's not comfortable to have that on your legs but there's a whole
0:34
ergonomic piece here too. So, enter the most humble of technological solutions. This is
0:41
the Wanwo laptop desk and it's pretty simple but it actually works really well. So, the
0:47
back is a pillow or a cushion and it even has a little carrying handle. How cool is
0:53
that? But the other side is actually a hard surface. So, you could use this for homework
1:00
you could use this with reading a book or something and it has a little lip so things
1:04
don't slide off and you just put it on your lap then you can put the laptop on it and
1:09
of course, you don't have to use a laptop. You can use this for any other thing but as
1:14
you can see, it's also anti-slip which is nice because when you have the laptop on your
1:20
legs, you're often trying to jockey position to get it to be perfectly level. You don't
1:25
have to worry about that with this because the cushion sort of helps buffer that. Now
1:29
let me tell you, this fits up to a 15.6 inch laptop because it's 16 inches wide, 12 inches
1:37
tall and at its thickest, it's 3 inches and then it goes down to like 2.1 inches. You
1:43
can use this as a cushion if you need to get a little tiny cat nap in while you're working
1:48
at the school library. It's okay. It is a total of 3 pounds. It's really, I don't even
1:54
know how they get that much weight out of that measurement because it feels like a negligible
1:58
weight. It's super easy. So, pillow cushion has the book stand. On the Amazon reviews
2:06
someone like totally hated this and tore this off with a hammer. Honestly, just get a different
2:12
unit. This one actually, this is really handy. It's really great because if you have something
2:16
like an iPad or something that is naturally just going to slip down because of the angle
2:21
then this obviously is going to stop it doing that. This is way, way useful for books. Anti-slip
2:28
comes with a 10-year warranty. 10 years. So, I assume if you attack it with a knife because
2:33
you're frustrated over a grade you got in school, probably not covered. But otherwise
2:39
if the thing starts to fall apart, you got 10 years of run time. It's pretty nice. Now
2:44
before we get to the price, let me ask if you, yes, you can subscribe to my channel
2:50
Really helpful. And tell me in the comments, do you tend to put your laptop directly on
2:55
your lap and what's that experience like? You know, there's radiation issues, there's
2:59
heat issues, there's just comfort issues, right? Does that work for you? Or do you actually
3:04
secretly like put a book or put some other service or have a piece of wood or something
3:08
All of which is going to be way enhanced by having this. So, what is this? Then, glad
3:14
you asked. This is the Wanwo Laptop Desk and it's $34.99 at Amazon.com. And they also
3:21
have a version that has a different basically sticker on this. It's, well, wrap maybe is
3:26
a better word. It looks more like a bamboo surface, which honestly, kind of wish I would
3:32
have gotten that one because I like that look better. But either way, the functionality
3:36
is fantastic. This is definitely one to check out whether you work in bed or you work on
3:41
the couch or you just lay on the floor or something. Really, really nice, super light
3:46
easy to transport, definitely worth checking out. And with that, I think I'm getting back
3:50
to what I was working on, which means I'll catch you in my next video
