Is it top heavy? If you use it on your lap does it tip over easy?

A little top heavy, but not enough to tip over when it's on your lap. The keyboard slot is close enough to the center to keep it from tipping.

I have not had that problem when I use it a table. In my lap, it is stable as anything else.

No it doesn't tip over on my lap. I think it is balanced based on the angle of the iPad and the placement of the magnetic strip. if you tip it too far forward the iPad will tip towards you. That has only happened when I'm using my lap tray with an added pillow tilting it forward while laying down in bed.

Sits well on desktop or hard surface. My wife uses it on her lap routinely. In my opinion well balanced.

Not at all. It feels very natural like you would expect from your laptop. I use it work and frequently type on my lap for hours with it. Good luck.

The top definately makes the ipad heavier but for me it is totally worth it. It doesnt tip over easily when you use the correct side (i.e. magnetic side with the keyboard) but you have to be careful not to use the other side cuz it does tip over then.

No, it does not seem top heavy at all - I've never seen it actually tip over during use.

It is top heavy but i have tried putting it on my lap it so far haven't tilt yet. But if a guy were using it on the lap you will face difficulty because we are big size unlike woman.

No, it is very stable both in landscape and portrait. In landscape the iPad magnetically attaches to the keyboard so you can pick both up as a unit. In portrait there is no mechanical connection, but the iPad is quite secure working at a desk or conference table.

While it is not super heavy, it is substantial. I haven't seen it tip over even once

If your laptop is heavy, it won't hold your laptop when the top panel is flat. It will tip over.

I love it, but I do not have to worry about tipping over. It is stable for me, but truth be told, I could tip it very easily. It is not very wide. And it is not very heavy. For someone elderly, you might want to get a bigger heavier model. Or, if you could attach this to a heavy base with 4 U bolts.

I have found it very stable. It hasn't tipped on me yet. On carpet, wood, and really thick carpet I've had no problems

It's not very heavy. However, I think it would be a bit awkward to use on your lap. Since the sides open up, it becomes very wide and would become difficult to get up and down or to even close it up. Hope this helps.

We are quite elderly, but we have used this item now for a couple of months and have not had a tip over problem. However, it is not anchored to the floor, so I suppose one might be able to tip it under unusual circumstances, such as falling and grasping a handle for a sidewise support. We also added a seat riser to the commode, which helps us rise to a standing position easily. Hope this helps.

I don't recall but I'd estimate around 10 pounds. I just checked the user manual but it didn't say anything about the weight. I have had no problem resting it on my lap for an hour or two at a time with a cooling pad underneath.

It's very stable for me - female 130lbs. I've never felt like it would tip on me. Hope this helps.

It is very sturdy. I have even moved the table it was on while DJing with little to no sway. As for comfort it depends on the table you are setting it on. The angle it holds it at would put the keyboard of most laptops at an angle similar to a normal desktop keyboard propped up on it's back risers. I think it's fine.

Funny you should ask :-).....that's exactly the reason I bought it. My daughter sets her laptop on it when she's in bed. That way, it doesn't overheat, and it doesn't fall on the floor. Perfect!

It is very sturdy. We have had ours on carpet for over a year and it has never tipped over.

very easy to adjust position. i would adjust to desired position & then put lap top on. why risk dropping your laptop.

Never had a problem with tip over. I have two different units from them and neither was prone to tip over.

It is sturdy. I think it would be fine but it doesnt tilt all the way back like a table so I dont know if you would be able to put a lap top on it or not.

Another "yes" vote for lap typing and that's a priority for me. I could see this varying based on body shape but I can sit on a couch or chair with it on my lap and type comfortably. It feels very stable with the rear clip out (in landscape mode) and although I wondered initially I think it is weighted correctly so that it wouldn't risk tipping over backwards.
