OK, so let's discard all the possible negatives about this product. The description should say that this cooler is for laptops ranging in size from 15" and lower. I have a 15" computer and anything larger I would expect would be too close to the fans. A small space between laptop and fan is needed. Usually placing the "feet" of the computer does the trick, but larger coputers might end up having their "feet" too far out to place all four on the fan.
A second issue adressed by other review-ees is that the USB plug gets loose after use. I haven't used it long enough for that to occur, but I can imagine that if you try to use this fan on non-flat surfaces then it is possible for any USB-fitted cable to loose it's tightness.
It's extreamly quiet and I'm running it on the higher setting. This fan is so good that it has saved my computer! My built in computer fan died recently which meant that the heat would cause the computer to crash every 5 minutes. The cooler is compensating completely! This is impressive as I'm a student in the progress of writing my dissertation which means that my computer is switchen on for up to 14hours straight.
And finally let us not forget the dimensions, it only raises the computer about an inch = 2.5cm. And the design is stunning. It is also very light, so I doubt it would add much weight if you choose to travel with it.
To reiterate, as long as it is kept on a flat surface and used with a 15" or smaller laptop, it's a great investment.

Smaller,lighter and far more attractive than I expected it to be, this notebook cooler really does the job. It's surprisingly quiet, too. In fact the only reason you'll know it's there at all is that your laptop doesn't crash any more. I bought one because my laptop (just out of guarantee, of course) had started routinely dying on me after only a few hours. Now it doesn't. Simple as that.

I read all the rave reviews about this notebook cooler and thought that it was the one for me - my Dell inspiron 5150 is getting on a bit and I do a lot of Dreamweaver work and it was often shutting down it got so hot. However when I got this wonderous device I found that it sucked air in through the top and blew it out of the bottom - but and the laptop fan sucks air in through the bottom and blows it out the sides. So the two of them are fighting against each other and it actually made the over heating worse!
Have just turned it upside down and put the rear out vent under the in fan of my laptop and it works much better - keeps my legs cool too!
Stupid design flaw - can't even open the cooler up to turn fans over as its a sealed unit. They should make the fans reversable.
