Adequate
By Perry's MomVerified Purchaser from Clarkston, MI on 3/20/2009
Pros:
Large lap desk
Cons:
Flimsy
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about LifeStyles Lap Desk:

One of the reviewers mentions you can use a laptop on it, but the laptop actually caused it to bow quite a bit in the middle. The edges are rather "sharp" as well. On a positive note it works fine when sitting in bed with only a keyboard and mouse or paperwork on the surface. The one I bought for my sisters to use in their chair with their laptop they are using on top of an existing tray table for the extended length from side to side.

Very Handy

Convenient

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about LifeStyles Lap Desk:

Is really handy to get some work done while watching TV, or relaxing. Would be nice if it had a pillow attached on the bottem, but I just put one on my lap and it works fine. My daughter also got one because she thought it was so handy to use.

Comments about LifeStyles Lap Desk:

Perfect for use while confined to a chair after surgery. Can eat, do puzzles or projects, do paperwork, etc. Only complaints: It could be thicker so it sits higher - still have to hold things higher in my hands. Also, because of the size and not being foldable, it's a little harder to "set aside" when not in use. But we both love it - I ordered a pair for my husband and me.

It holds my 17" laptop and gives me room to write as well. When I am done it is easy to stow away. It is surely large enough to use as a craft board as well. Other laptop boards cost[$]and do not have the width for a 17"

Comments about LifeStyles Lap Desk:

We use this a lot as a platform for the laptops in our home- whether people are working or playing games, this lap desk is in constant demand.
I also find it very helpful when I am organizing my monthly bills. I grab a cup of coffee, my bills and the rest of my supplies and go sit in my easy chair.
The only down side to this lap desk is that it is awkward to maneuver yourself out from under it in a hurry if you have to get up for any reason. (Answer the door etc)

Lap Board
By just a householderVerified Purchaser from Ohio on 4/10/2008
Pros:
Convenient, Easy to Move
Describe Yourself:
Homeowner
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about LifeStyles Lap Desk:

This is a 3/8th inch piece of pressed fiber board with a woodgrain look laminate top. It has a curved hole in each end. It isn't long enough to fit across the arms of my recliner but I can balance it or put a pillow under it. Works well as a makeshift desk. I usually do bills or write letters from the chair and now I have a larger workspace. The rubber bands are helpful. If I need to get up, I slip all papers/pens (and whatever else, like the remote control) under the band and set the board aside. It can be placed side edge down and the papers don't move. The board is not super sturdy but I think the laminate top would hold up to a hard writing pen without denting. Overall, even though it is just a board, I find it very helpful.

Comments about LifeStyles Lap Desk:

I am always working on my laptop or doing paperwork (balancing my checkbook, filling out forms, etc.) in my bedroom where I have no desk or suitable writing surface, so I thought this lap desk would suit my needs perfectly and I was right. I can comfortably sit on my bed and work on my laptop without it overheating and burning my legs, and doing paperwork is no longer a chore anymore because I don't have to go searching for a good writing surface. I just keep the lap desk handy and I get all of my "desk tasks" done with ease. I would definitely recommend this product to others.

I work from home and sitting up at my desk all day can hurt my back. Now, I put my key board on the lap desk and put my feet up on the desk. This takes the pressure off of my back. I also have a laptop that I can place on the lap desk when I'm watching TV. This little desk has become a little miricle for me. I would sincerely suggest it for anyone...and you can't beat the price!
