Does the job it is supposed to do. (2008-10-24)
This product is Ok. When I had problems with a bad memory card on a 3 month old Dell computer, it was recommended to me by the guy who helped diagnose the problem that the computer may be running hot and a cooling mat may help. Based on reviews and price I bought this one. I find it to be a little noisy and the height that it raises my notebook computer to is a little uncomfortable for typing but it does work - the computer fan does not come on while the Targus fan is going.
Exceptional (2008-10-23)
It not often that you but a product that is "As Advertised". This chill pad is an exception. The 2 fans are quiet, the additional 3 USB ports are a blessing and the card reader is a great added benefit. The best part is that it all works well. My PowerBook tends to get very hot, however this chill pad manages to to get the heat down to just warm. As with all products there is always something that we don't like. And the one thing that I don't like about this chill pad is that the power cord plugs into the side towards the front. I wish they had put it in the back of the pad as the did with the USB Laptop to chill pad connection.
A bit noisy but does the trick. (2008-10-15)
Very light, therefore portable. I guess it is true that you get what you pay for - no frills, does the trick but is rather loud. Add that to the noise generated by my laptop's internal fan, and you've got yourself a white noise maker! I've been planning to get a higher quality fan-dock once it breaks but it has already been a year! Not sure if that's good or bad.
It's just ok.. (2008-10-15)
This is the second notebook pad I've purchased. The first one did not raise the notebook up at all so there was no airflow. This one is designed to allow airflow underneath the laptop. The fans on this model are not very powerful and you can barely feel the air moving. It keeps my Macbook Pro 2.14Ghz around 84 degrees. The previous pad I had stayed around 80 degrees.
Worked great while it lasted, then fell apart (2008-10-13)
Functionally, this worked great. Greatly reduced the heat generated from my laptop. Made it comfortable to work long hours with my laptop in my lap.
That being said, I used it daily and carried in my laptop bag occasionally. The plastic is flimsy,the rubber feet fell out, the housing cracked, the cord is much too long which makes carring the laptop and chill pad together hazardous (really easy to catch the long loop of cord on something). At the end of 8 months of use it was no longer operational and I had to pitch it.
If they would just remanufacture it with some more durable materials and a shorter cord, I'd give it 5 stars.
