is the item portable?

Yes, but I don't know exactly what you have in mind. It has the same dimensions as a medium sized laptop computer. It is not heavy, but yes.........it's definitely portable. My mother purchased it a 18 months ago, and it was a great help to her as she was confined to a hospital bed. After she passed away, I brought it home, and it transports well.

Yes, the bookstand could be portable. It would fit in a backpack just fine. I'm still very happy with mine, and still use it quite frequently. Hope this helps.

Sutisa, yes. I would call it portable. With one caveat: If considering moving it from room to room -- no big deal. But for traveling I would wrap it in something protective: There are 3 main parts and --when "broken down" -- the three pieces are loose (but connected). It just occurred to me that a simple velcro strap might secure it nicely. At any rate, my wife just timed me: It took me 5 seconds to undo the hinges, and 5 seconds to lock it back into place. Ripley

well, it's 16" x 11" by 3" when folded up, and it's made of solid wood. so if you put it in a backpack, it's portable. it's totally worth bringing anywhere you have a lot of reading to do and will be there for a while, but you wouldn't want to keep collapsing it and moving it. i own 3 of them, and i set them up in various places in my home where i do a lot of hands-free reading so i don't have to keep moving them!

It's not really meant to be portable. It's rigid and a bulky item for carrying. Maybe in a large backpack, but not in a thinner attache type case.

It is portable with a carrying case. No wheels. Lightweight compared to some others I've hauled around.

Personally, I wouldn't try to use it as a portable item. Granted, it is not heavy but it is bulky and takes up quite a bit of room. If you were to use a larger backpack, it might work.

No. Thats not what they meant by portable. It plugs into a standard AC outlet. They just meant you can carry it around from chair to chair.

Yes, very portable, but cheap made find out more, read more reviews about this product.

Not really. It's too large to be portable. It's a nice product and a GREAT value but not really ideal to knock down and set back up.

I would not call it "portable". Maybe to carry to the patio and back, but to the office?

It's 20 pounds. Pick it up, carry it outdoors and plug into an outdoor outlet. But if by "portable" you mean battery operated walk around, no.

Yes, the base plastic with a hinge across the bottom that will fold into a thin unit that is easily transported. Both the power and USB wires disconnect from the base. So, the unit is very portable. One could easily pack it into a roller-bag for a week-long business trip, or pack it into a laptop bag.

It can be portable. Just need batteries. New models come with rechargeable battery.

Yes! I would be relatively careful with it but as long as it doesn't get shook around a bunch its definitely small enough and durable enough to be portable.

Item does not fold but it's light enough that you can bring with a travel crib or play yard. I probably would not have called it portable, hope this helps.

No in this case it means that this unit has to be powered by the USB so it's not really portable, sorry.

Yes ,it is very portable....I once took it to a mountain by simply putting this scope into my 17 inch laptop backpack and carried the tripod separately....tripod is a little heavy, however its very well built and it can be reduced to almost the size of a tennis racquet.....I am not sure if this answers your question,but just wanted to let you know

Yes, it is portable, mostly an indoor unit, ideally made as a table top unit, no carry handle.Very nice sounding!

It is portable. However, when it is filled with water it is rather heavy. I usually use a pitcher to fill the top of the santevia with water instead of having to have it next to the sink.
