Prop 'n Go Slim - Universal Portable Electronic Device Stand (Black, Memory Foam, 14 Adjustable Angles, Fits iPad, iPhone, Tablets, eReaders, Laptops up to 10 lb)

This is a great belly or chest stand for when your laying down, and works great everywhere else too. I primarily bought it for when I’m laying down and it’s ideal for that. It’s lightweight, sturdy, well balanced, thin, and high quality. The cushion material is soft but grips the fabric on my clothing nicely so it doesn’t feel like it’s going to slip off. It’s not too big and not too small — just right.I have a new iPad Pro and it’s very thin so I did have to modify the stand a bit to really make my tablet feel secure. I used a magnetic mount and I also added a bit of grip tape just above the bottom shelf or lip. After these slight mods my tablet is securely attached and it’s a pleasure to use with this stand.Overall, I’d say this stand is almost perfect out of the package and with a couple easy mods is really a joy to use.Amazon delivered this not in a box but just in its plastic wrapping with a shipping label slapped on. I would have preferred a box, but the stand was fine and not damaged in shipping.

This has been a game changer! I bought this device about three years ago, and while searching for another phone product, the "Prop and Go" caught my eye again. It reminded me just how essential this tool is in my daily life.**Pros:**✅ Its versatility is unmatched. Whether you’re using it with a phone or tablet, it adapts to your needs. Just a heads-up: when calling an automated system—like your credit card company—if your phone is vertical and resting on the lip, it might distort your voice. So, remember to hold your phone while talking or turn it sideways!✅ You can adjust your device to any angle, making it perfect for different lighting situations.✅ And the best part? It’s virtually indestructible! Seriously!This device is made of durable plastic. Just snap the middle piece on, find your ideal angle, and you’re good to go! As someone who enjoys reading manhuas late into the night, I've had a few falls with off the bed and couch! Sometimes the middle piece pops off, but don’t worry—you can easily snap it back on. My Tablet has survived all this time too, thankfully😁**Cons:**Now, let's address the only limitation: when I try to read with the "Prop and Go" on my lap, it’s not quite thick or tall enough. While tutoring students in the library, the table height is perfect, but at home, you may encounter a bit of "tech neck."Given the advancements in products over the past three years, there may be be better advancements to what I'm going to tell you now...🟠 To stop my "tech neck" I need to raise the "Prop n Go" up. I tried a pillow but it was too soft and a book was too firm. Them I found a product called a I invested in a "TABLET pillow"-U SERIES BY SAIJI.✅ THE PILLOW COMES WITH A TABLET OR PHONE HOLDER ATTACHED ALREADY.🟠 MINE DID NOT 3 YEARS AGO.Just a word of caution: if you combine the "Prop and Go" with a pillow while sitting on soft surfaces like a bed or couch, make sure to secure everything before standing up, or you might experience a “Jenga” moment! Trust me; I’ve had my fair share!Lastly, remember that holding tablets for long periods can be tiring. I use a strap for short reading sessions, but for extended periods of browsing, reading, streaming, and studying, this is truly a fantastic investment!

* 10 Year Update!I just stumbled upon my review from over 10 years ago on the Prop n Go slim… I’m still using the same one to write this update. I literally use it every night while reading in conjunction with a small and “flattish” throw pillow. I don’t know if it’s because this is a great product or I am just cheap! I changed the rating from a 4 to a 5 based on longevity alone. If you drop it from your nightstand to the floor with your iPad in it like I do once a month, the adjustable tray will pop out but hasn’t broken yet. The sad news is it was $35 back then and one of the higher priced versions available at the time so there’s your inflation.*I ordered one of these for my wife to use with her Kindle Fire HD and it works very well for that after trying to pick a style/type of reader holder out of the hundreds of kinds on the market. I tried it with my iPad2 which is in a full case and it works well too. If you keep the adjustable tray in the flat position and flip it backwords it also works great for a lap stand for a full size laptop PC. The back of the lap top snugs against the rail and keeps the "hot" lap top off your lap!I bought another for myself and I give it 4 stars because it works well and is versatile, but it is on the high end of the price list. It's a pretty simple design and made of plastic and the adjustable tray isn't real beefy, but should be reliable (time will tell). The memory foam underside, while not real thinck gives it enough "cush" to rest on lap, knees, etc. We both use small throw pillows on the underside for lap (couch, chair) reading and when laying in bed. This can make it a little tippy, but puts everything at the best height for reduced neck/eye strain.
