TECKNET Cooling Pad 12"-17" Laptop Cooler with 3 Ultra Quiet Fans at 1200RPM, Ergonomic Comfort Notebook Cooling Pad with 2 USB Ports, Light-weight Gaming Laptop Cooling Stand

Just bought a new gaming laptop and in order to keep it in good condition for as long as possible, I decided to invest in a cooling tray too. This one had good reviews and at the time of purchase, was £9.99, which seemed reasonable enough. I've been using it the last few days on my old laptop, which gets hot as balls in one corner, to the point that it's uncomfortable to the touch, and it's been a revelation!Pros:* The cooling tray keeps the computer so nice and cold that I would genuinely think it wasn't on.* It runs virtually silent (no noise noticeable after the computer is on because the computer itself is noisier).* It's attractive without being garish - the blue lights aren't obtrusive, which I appreciate.* It's nice and light without feeling flimsy. The little legs that pop out to raise the angle feel sturdy and the hinge is nice and stiff, they definitely can't slip down by themselves.* There are rubber strips on all four corners on the bottom and on the bottom of the pop out legs, to ensure the tray doesn't shift when placed on a surface. There are also two rubber strips on top, so the laptop stays in position even when angled. These are nice and big and grippy without obstructing air flow or sticking out too much.* The USB port means you don't have to sacrifice a peripheral to use this.Cons:* If you have a very heavy laptop or press down too hard, the metal can compress to hit the fan blades inside - the metal is full of holes to allow air flow, so it's not made to withstand very heavy loads. If you did this for long enough, I imagine you'd break it. I don't think you'd do this with any modern laptop without mishandling the product, though (I only realised because I shifted too suddenly with it on my lap and grabbed it too hard trying to stop the laptop sliding off).* There are two USB ports, but only one of them is an EXTRA USB port. One port is required to connect to the laptop, which is where the tray pulls its power. So you don't lose a port (I plugged my mouse into the tray and the tray into the laptop instead of plugging the mouse into the laptop), but you don't gain one either. Just to clarify that.Overall, it does exactly what it promises for a really reasonable price. I'd definitely recommend. To ensure its long life, I'd probably use it on a desk or on top of a lap tray rather than directly on your lap, but you can use it on your lap if needed. I tried both but it feels better on a lap tray, as the rubber feet can grip it so it feels safer than your legs.

The TECKNET Cooling Pad is a fantastic accessory for keeping laptops cool during prolonged use. With its three ultra-quiet fans, it effectively reduces heat build-up, even during intensive tasks like gaming or video editing. The fans run silently, ensuring no distractions while you work or play.The pad is lightweight and ergonomically designed, with adjustable angles that make typing more comfortable. It fits laptops from 12" to 17" perfectly, and the USB-powered design is convenient and doesn’t take up much power.Overall, this cooling pad is well-built, functional, and excellent value for money. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to protect their laptop from overheating!

Hi have brand new Asus laptop which gets hot very quickly and fans getting mad. This device makes it cool. Materials feel cheap but on the flip side it gives light weight. Fans are very quiet. Shane you can't turn the LED lights off...

Paid for free delivery so expected time was a week, but came next day.Packaged nicely, environmentally friendly in a way with no wasted material.Lightweight, easy to use, and I quite like the design. Some comments seem to question the integrity of it but I feel these are unnecessarily harsh and it could hold up reasonably well, even to decent bumps and drops.Has a couple of legs at the back to lift it up, and some pads to stop it slipping. Not had an issue with these and have been fine, not slipped once. Seen some complaints about this and I don't think they're justified to be honest. My laptops have rubber on them too and they work in tandem fantastically and you have to drag/lean on them quite hard to actually get it to fall off.Seen some reviews complain about the noise. Yes you can hear it, but it's certainly not louder then your own laptop fan at full blast, significantly quieter in fact. It is quite quiet and only really noticeable when there is 0 noise elsewhere. I feel people notice it because it's a new noise and you focus on it, but I feel you could get used to it, like you would your own laptop fan or even air con or similar. I've had it on all day whilst my laptop does updates and I watched TV and didn't notice anything.Ultimately I bought this for older laptops of mine that are crashing due to overheating. So far it seems to be helping. I need to perhaps do some more thorough tests though and try get my laptop up and running for gaming and see how it handles it. I've seen some negative reviews regarding high end usage on powerful laptops so I feel this needs to be checked out.Despite the lack of extenuating testing, I'd say it's a pretty good product and good value for money.

I was having issues with my Asus ROG laptop overheating and throttling itself whilst gaming. This pad has completely solved the issue, where my GPU was consistently between 90 and 100C under load now it is 70-80 and performance is much better.The fans on this are definitely audible but are quieter than the laptops own fans so not noticeable in use.

For casual and slightly demanding use this is absolutely fine! It’s almost silent and does keep things cool when you aren’t gaming. Regular laptops aren’t going go have any problems using this and I’d say it’s an excellent value for money for causal users.For gaming though, it’s completely useless. The fans aren’t powerful enough to actually keep the system cool. Highly recommend something more powerful for gaming.Other than that the build quality was excellent and I didn’t have any problems.
