Question: I thought this was a cooling fan mat - it is not
Document: unfortunately.. after receiving it in the mail, I realized I did not receive what I thought I was ordering.. The description was not complete and all the details were not disclosed. I thought I had purchased a laptop cooler with a fan.. such is life- Brandon
Just so you know, if you're looking for something with a fan, you should getTargus Lap Chill Matinstead. That one has a fan. This is just a perforated platform with some holes in it for cooling, with no fan.I really wanted to like it, but it's just too big for me. I used it for a month, but went back to using pillows for when I was sitting in a chair or on a bed.
I got this for use in bed, particularly for my mother. She likes to use her computer while watching TV, and her laptop usually gets pretty hot while she has it on her lap. This lap desk has a cooling mechanism so that air gets to the bottom of the laptop to help keep it ventilated and cool. I prefer mechanisms with an actual fan to draw the heat away from the bottom of the laptop but this would of course added to the price.
This laptop cooler is a passive cooler. It does not include a fan that some coolers do. The grate design ensures that your laptop's own cooling mechanism will not be obscured so it will remain cool. It also ensures that the computer operator will be insolated from the very hot surface of the bottom of the laptop. This product is very well made, structurally very sound and quite attractive. Being a passive cooler, it won't be as effective as one with a fan.
I had thought about purchasing a more expensive laptop stand, but after carefully reviewing several different ones, this one turned out to be ideally suited for my needs..
I thought that since this was so giant, that I could put one of my super tiny laptops in the storage, but the storage wasn't engineered very well.-The padded parts get dirty really quickly
This is very well designed, complete with inside storage. They thought of very thing...even a carrying handle. It kept both my laptop and my lap cool!
I was looking for a cooling pad for my laptop when Iordered this Targus LaptopLap Desk. This was not what I was looking for. I needed something that had fans in it to keep my laptop cool. I returned this the same day I got it.
I wanted a laptop desk that was light enough to travel with and this fits the bill. It may not be as sturdy as the more expensive ones but it was exactly what I was looking for. There is room inside to stash a few items and it has openings for cooling. My laptop is 17.3 so is a little wider but works well has a non skin/slip covering. Good Value!
This desk starts out with a great idea. A cooling tray for alaptop that has storage! The star is for the idea. I was offered thisto try out for Vine. I was thrilled, because I often use a lap desk, andthe idea of the storage for cords and other items was perfect!The item arrived with both of the lock tabs off of the desk. Thetwo darker tabs that you see on the picture lock the desk closed.
Answer: There is no fan.  However, the surface is perforated so some air can circulate naturally.
