This well designed and compact sized Z style laptop stand from Fatorm at £27.99 is not the least expensive I have seen , but it is always worth paying a bit more for good quality. Made from premium gauge Aluminium alloy it should give stylish support to any laptop between 10 to 16 inches., especially Macs, with which the silver brushed metal finish complements nicely.

In the box are the laptop stand, soft carry bag and a simple and easy to read user guide. Made from aluminium alloy with silicone anti-slip protective pads on the base and supporting plate along with retaining lugs on the front, the stand looks and feels like a quality piece of kit. The included felt carry bag is itself well made and nicely padded and this is important as the role of the bag is to protect your laptop from the stand when both are carried around together.

The 0.9Kg stand is made entirely from Aluminium Alloy with a 288 x 223 mm support plate over a 218 x 200mm base with twin supports jointed at the top and bottom. The joints are stiff and hard to set, as they should be, but with a smooth and silky movement and once in position do not slip, wobble, or feel like they will ever need tightening. Unlike with many rivals, it does seem possible to tighten them if and when necessary as there is a recessed nut concealed within the hinge. The base is well weighted and even when the laptop is at full elevation it feels stable and secure. There are silicone protective strips along the top and bottom of the support pad as well as on the two anti-slip lugs which hold the laptop in place. There are heat dissipating slots cut into the Pad to keep the laptop cool.

Using it is obvious and intuitive, the only point to mention is to be sure to open and adjust the stand from the centre to avoid putting undue strain or skewing on any single joint. The stand will support a balanced weight of up to 10kg and can extend to a height of 12 inches at an angle of 45 degrees.

Priced as it is, this is not a cheap item, but it has a build quality and premier feel that the cheaper rivals certainly lack. I would have liked to have received a soft carry bag to protect other items when carried together, but that is no deal-breaker.

This is a quality piece of kit with a high end feel to it and will be a fine addition to your home office.
