en, looks nice
rating: 4

Just look nice and really help me a little bit in cooling down with HP notebook. My notebook is hot all the time and even dead in winter from time to time. With this chill pad, I cannot say it completely cools down, but is never dead again.


Poor quality, broke after three weeks
rating: 1

I almost never write negative reviews, but have to for this product. After three weeks the fan started making noise. The pad has been sitting on my desk (I don't carry or use it otherwise), so it hasn't been knocked around. I do use my laptop (MBP) very long hours, but that's why I purchased the product in the first place, to keep my laptop cool! It appears that the fan blades are now hitting another part of the unit (the grating?), slowing them down and making an intolerable amount of noise, making the product unusable.

After I unplugging the power jack several times, it also became very difficult to plug back in. The power jack is also defective. I'm going to return the product. Very poor quality design and fabrication. Stay away from this product. Reflects poorly on Targus, too.

rating: 4

Feel very comfortable using it. Very light and well built.Provides bushes for height adjustment for Laptops such as 17'' ones. Freely dissipates the heat generated by laptop by natural flow of air.Good angle to type.Must buy for any laptop size ,especially for 15 or higher.

Thank you

Don't bother.....

Less than two months after purchasing this product it did not work properly. So, I contacted the seller after reading their guarantee:
"A-to-z Guarantee
We want you to buy with confidence anytime you purchase products on Amazon.com. That is why we guarantee purchases from Amazon Marketplace, Auctions, zShops, and Merchant sellers. The condition of the item you buy and its timely delivery are guaranteed..."

After providing all the information they requested they said they were very sorry but I had to contact the manufacturer. The item was less than $20 and by the time I would go through the hoops I would have spent another $20. This really is aggravating because of their stated guarantee. My belief is that if a seller does not act positively, I will not beat my head against a wall. Rather I will write a review and hope no one else gets stuck with this problem.

This is only the second negative review I have written in all my shopping with Amazon. And they both have happened in the past month. I always rate my transactions and as a whole have not been disappointed with my purchases on Amazon.



Temporary Fix
rating: 1

I had this product for about three days before realizing I should have bought something else. The cord on it is way too long and there are no additional usb ports so it was taking up one of the only four I had. After about four months the fans just died; they just don't work anymore. I have taken the cord off and use the base just to keep it off a flat surface until I get a better one. Not to mention it seems really flimsy and if the fans would have lasted any time at all then it probably would have broken somewhere else.
