Home Reviews ,,,,, We recently tried Natol's laptop stand, a compact and versatile solution that is offered at a rather low price. It is among the best that we have had the opportunity to try in recent years because it is sturdy but thin, it is easily transported with the computer and goes well, for materials and design, to MacBooks and all Apple devices.
With dozens of positive reviews also on Amazon, where it is very often proposed in promotion among the daily offers, it is a valid ally also to support musical keyboards or, in the case of the computer, to improve posture when working for several hours at the computer in how much it allows to raise the laptop screen more than seven centimeters from the work surface.
How Natol is made
It is just under an inch thick and is made entirely of brushed aluminum. The structure is solid and has large openings that allow the supported computer to breathe properly. The points of contact with the work surface and different areas on which the PC rests are reinforced by large rubber covers, so as to block both the support on the desk with four feet, and the computer that practically “sticks” to the support .
The shapes are not only made ad hoc to ventilate the machine but also improve the stability of the system: in fact, in the lower edge the support is slightly bent, thus improving the grip of the computer and preventing it from slipping away, while on the upper area a The wide opening turns into a sort of handle to allow it to be carried more easily.
From this point of view, the opening system of the stand is ingenious, which practically “disappears” inside the support thanks to one of its large openings, thus becoming thinner than a tablet when closed. When opened, however, the structure is still solid and apparently capable of supporting a weight much greater than that of a 1-2 kg laptop.

How is it going
The structure, as mentioned, is very solid and stable. We used it with our 15 '' MacBook Pro which has never moved even a millimeter, thanks to the combination of weight with sturdy rubber feet.
We have found the greatest benefits in terms of posture. In fact, the support raises the screen by 7.6 centimeters, just enough to have it at a height that does not require you to lower the head, thus eliminating stiff neck and muscle pain. It must be said that in this position it is inconvenient to use the built-in trackpad and keyboard, so it is good to accompany the laptop to an external keyboard and mouse (or trackpad) in order to have them in a better position on the work surface. Therefore this support is mainly indicated for all those desks that have a large surface capable of hosting both the computer and an external keyboard and mouse.
Even more convenient if the computer is connected to an external monitor: in this way the laptop screen can be placed next to the monitor while maintaining a height that allows it to be used comfortably as a secondary display, improving productivity and allowing you to take full advantage of a greater working area.
In the musical field it can also work to slightly raise a keyboard. We tested it with our IK Multimedia iRig, resulting in this case even more comfortable to use for recordings, as it simulates the tilt of the keyboard used during live performances.

Conclusions
The Natol support is ideal for those who want to improve posture in the office and is the best choice for those who need to always carry it with them. It is light, very thin, robust, and the design fits perfectly with that of Apple devices, thus also ensuring a certain visual continuity.
