Product Description
Students, readers, writers and crafters will appreciate this sturdy all-wood lap desk! Attached with removable hook and loop closures is a comfortable, squishy-soft pillow that is filled with foam beads to accommodate your lap. The pillow can be removed from the desk and dry-cleaned if desired. The lap desk is stained with a rich cherry finish and comes with a built-in carry handle as well as two built-in storage bays. These bays have finger wells that allow easy lifting of the lids and hidden magnets that secure bay lids so your pencils, pens and erasers dont scatter everywhere when the lap desk is turned on its side for storage. Great for home or office and travel. Product dimensions (imperial): 14.75 inch H x 22.5 inch L x 3 inch W Product dimensions (metric): 374.65 mm H x 571.50 mm L x 76.20 mm W

 Not what it appears to be December 29, 2008
A big seller at Christmas as bestbuy was routinely sold out of this item leading up to and even after Christmas, but it's a deceiving product. What looks like a nice solid laptop desk, is actually a very cheap laminate fiberboard material.
Totally over-priced and not at all what it purports to be. The bamboo and mahogany versions were big sellers, but it's a rip-off. At about $5.00, this might be worth it. At $40-$50, it's a high priced piece of cardboard, with an attractive, but cheap glued on laminate.
Don't bother with this one.
Nice, but needs more padding November 1, 2008

The top of the Euro desk looks nice, the handle at the top is also a nice addition. It's definitely not too big and bulky compared to other lap desks, but that's one of the problems because the pillow-padding underneath doesn't have a lot of padding.
If there were more padding, it would be a great lap desk. The pillow underneath can be removed (it's attached by Velcro). So if you have something else to replace the pillow with, it could work better.
Good Lapdesk September 5, 2008
Bought this lap desk some time ago and think it's above average. The cushion is below average and not very comfortable. I also don't care for the cubby holes on the top as they stick come down too far. I do like the wood, it's lightweight, and a decent size for my 17" laptop.
Overall, I would look to buy this product again if I could find it without the cubby holes.
Thank you for the reviews - not gonna buy it. June 23, 2008

There is enough consistent data on this product that steered me away from buying it. Thank you for your reviews. Sorry to hear about your bad experiences.

I received this item as a Christmas gift. The desktop has a very nice finish on the wood and the small compartments in the upper corners are really handy. They are each big enough to hold a couple of pens/pencils. The lids of the compartments are sturdy and secure with the magnet closure.
Now for the negatives. The cushion underneath the desktop is basically a small tufted throw pillow. It's not the most stable base, but it's okay. It's secured to the desktop with Velcro. When I unpacked the item, one of the Velcro strips attached to the underside of the desktop was coming loose. They are glued and stapled...and not very well.
All in all, this item is functional and attractive. But if the quality doesn't improve, I wouldn't pay $40 for it myself.
