We also decided not to test lap desks made by companies with a small or nonexistent online presence because we’ve been burned in the past by their inability to respond to customer-support queries or even keep products in stock for reliable shipping. We checked the listings on Fakespot, eliminating those with a C grade or lower, which suggests some untrustworthiness in the reviews. Brand reputation: We ruled out models with poor owner ratings and reviews-especially with regard to comfort, build quality, and stability.Other than that, we noted (but did not require) any additional features, such as a storage pouch or drawer, a built-in fan, a handle, legs, or an angled work surface. That way, you can focus on your work instead of trying to keep your stuff from slipping onto the floor every few seconds. Extra features: We required each model to have some sort of lip, clasp, or slot to hold a laptop, tablet, or book in place, even when the lap desk isn’t perfectly level-say, if you cross your legs underneath it.So we disqualified any models with a built-in mousepad on the right side only, or those with an obstruction (like a laptop rest or clamp) that make it uncomfortable to write or draw with either hand. Regardless of which hand you normally use, having a little extra space on both sides of your laptop lets you keep your phone, pens, and other small supplies handy. Lefty friendliness: To qualify as the best lap desk for most people, each model had to be usable by both left- and right-handed people.(Because laptops are typically measured by diagonal screen size, the true width of a 13-inch MacBook Pro is 12.8 inches, and a 17-inch HP Envy is 16.4 inches wide.) Surface area: We eliminated any lap desks smaller than 15 inches wide because we wanted them to be able to comfortably accommodate a 13-inch laptop with a little room to spare.Heat distribution: We ruled out models lacking some kind of heat protection-such as a fan, ventilation, or padding to absorb and distribute heat-since keeping your legs cool and shielded against laptop burn is a main benefit of using a lap desk.
