Introduction:

LapDawg X4 Multi-Desk

We've reviewed lots of laptop desks here at VH. Why not? Laptops are gaining market share by the minute and not everyone (ok mostly don't) uses their laptop on a table or hard surface. Most of us actually use the laptop on....(brace yourself)....our laps! Now the crazy thing is that laptops aren't actually ideally designed to be used on our laps. Most of them are too damn hot, completely un-ergonomic, and just down right uncomfortable. Go Figure.

Well enter the aftermarket laptop desk market. It's huge and growing with seemingly new designs coming into the market all the time. Well today I have a new laptop desk, rather tray...err rather a multi-use and multi-functional tray for your viewing pleasure. It's called the LapDawg X4 multi-functional tray. The contacted me for a review and I'm guessing it's because one of the many uses LapDawg claims it's X4 can handle is lapdesk duty. So, let's take a closer look at what this X4 has to offer for it's $130.00 USD Price.

Features & Specifications:

Light, but definitely no lightweight
LapDawg™ Laptop Stands weigh a mere 5.29 lbs, but can stand up to weights of up to 26.5 lbs! Practically weightless, LapDawg’s sturdy construction means no more balancing acts with that 17” laptop!
Ano-what?
All LapDawg™ Laptop Stands are solidly constructed from anodized aluminum. Anodizing is an electrochemical process that hardens the aluminum, making it tougher and harder than the original aluminum itself!
The back IS the front!
LapDawg™ is so versatile you can use both sides of the tabletop! One side is equipped with a slip-resistant surface that keeps your laptop secure no matter the angle, plus a soft rubber comfort rest for your wrists. Flip it over and you have a smooth place to work comfortably with a raised, rounded edge to prevent those pesky pens and pencils from running away. No matter which way you choose, it’s always the right side!
Always cool under pressure
Though your laptop may heat up, LapDawg™ helps to cool it down. With it's easy heat syncing aluminum construction, overheating is no longer a concern.
Pop and Lock
The push-button locking design allows you to adjust the leg angles a full 360º! So you can always find the right incline that’s comfortable for you and your laptop. Simply push the button at each hinge and turn it slightly until you hear a “pop.” It’s now locked and will not budge until you adjust it again.
The only desk that stores under your bed
LapDawg™ Laptop Stands can be fully collapsed to slide easily out of sight under a bed or on a bookcase. It’s sleek design folds up neatly and easily – just like your laptop!
Priced too good to be true
You probably expect a laptop accessory like this to cost hundreds of dollars. Not even close. For our American friends, LapDawg™ Laptop Stand’s incredible versatility is only $130 USD, including free ground shipping! In Canada, LapDawg™ Laptop Stand is only $140 CAD + GST for non-Ontario residents. And it comes with free ground shipping! If you live in Ontario, please add PST. You can blame the government for that one.

Packaging:

White Box	White Box Label	Nicely Packaged
Well Protected	Transformer-ish	More Uses

While the box is rather plain, the packaging of the contents inside is very well done. Removing the X4 from it's box, the first thing I noticed was it's weight. It's much heavier than a typical laptop desk but that's because this is much more than a laptop desk...or is it? Turn the page...
