This device rests underneath your laptop, where 2 built-in fans quickly dissipate the heat. Noise - 25 dBa Speed - 1500 RPM Dimensions - 11.75 x 9 x 0.8

A bit noisy but does the trick.

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.

Cheap piece of junk

Not Sure what the other reviewers are talking about. The product works & does cool. It is so quiet I kept checking to make sure it was working. But it's very small. I got a 14 inch laptop & it's a tiny bit too small. I would not recomend it for a 16 inch. I used it about 5 or 6 times maybe less than 10 hrs. before it just stopped working, It is very cheaply made & wieghs about a 2 pounds or less. Please do not buy from sellers who are charging $60 for it. I paid $30 down at wal-mart for mine & feel "taken" after looking at better deals on Amazon (this thing really is cheap & flimsy).

Worked great while it lasted, then fell apart

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.

It's just ok..

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.
