I'd probably give this product a higher review if the fans just spun a bit faster. The breeze is very gentle even at max power, probably because they made it to be somewhat silent. I don't mind noise, I need cooling. I specifically went or this product because they don't advertise it as a low noise product. My laptop's own GPU fan blasts way harder despite being tiny. This is my first cooling pad, I'm unsure if my expectations are unreasonable (I was hoping for about 50% more cooling).

The cooling is... ok... but nothing spectacular. I got this because my CPU fan's bearings caved and I would like to use the laptop for at least small workloads on hot days while I wait for parts. I've detailed some stats below; keep in mind that these fans perfectly align with my heat sink, which is exposed via a mesh under the laptop (it's a gaming laptop, MSI Alpha 15). Benchmarks done on a 22 degrees C day.

**While in Power Saving mode**
[ Idling on the desktop with nothing running, duration 10 minutes ]
- Idle without cooling pad: 49.5 C
- Idle with cooling pad: 38.1 C

**While in High Performance mode**
[ High load in an emulator, duration 10 minutes ]
- High load without cooling pad: 82.5 C
- High load with cooling pad: 72 C

Works well, fans super quiet, easy to connect and stand comes in really handy! For a good price a very neat piece of hardware Works well, fans super quiet, easy to connect and stand comes in really handy! For a good price a very neat piece of hardware

I bought this for my daughter as she has just started out in the gaming world and needed to get her a product like her brothers to prevent the overheating of her laptop. She has an MSI gaming laptop and as they are so expensive, wanted this to keep it cool so it doesn't break. Highly recommend.

I've had this for a month. It does what its meant to, the indents on the side meant mounting a laptop with the cooler underneath was possible. No lights was an appeal for this, has plenty of cooling. The larger fan is noisier on my one, not sure if this is the case for others but fan speed selector lets me engage or disengage it so can run quiet if I need to. I've had this for a month.

I had an old cooling pad from a different manufacturer with fan noise that is so terrible that you're so close to setting it on fire. This cooling pad is way better, despite having four fans it's barely audible even at max speeds. If you value functionality, quality, good price point and not bothered by absence of RGB features then consider getting this cooling pad.

This does a great job of keeping my laptop cool, even through hours of gaming, and meets my needs

Pros:
-great cooling - does what it's supposed to
-good angle it adjusts to
-since I've not used any other cooling pad I don't know if this is louder or quieter than norm. Either way, it's about the same as my laptop fan, and I tend to use headphones so don't notice this at all
-since it's plastic, it's relatively light so easy take around the house

Cons:
-the cord is a bit short, so is a bit of a mission if your USB isn't lined up with pad's port.
-no bells and whistles - no cool lights and not the prettiest thing in the world if tha...view more This does a great job of keeping my laptop cool, even through hours of gaming, and meets my needs

-is chunky, so likely doesn't travel super well
-only one angle adjustment setting
