I'm thinking about this for an elderly friend with a hand tremor, so the pages won't jump around while she reads. Is it easy to turn the pages?

I have no trouble turning the pages, and I don't have to take the whole book out of the stand (as someone below said). I just lift the page out of the right-hand holder and place it behind the left-hand one. Very easy.

In order to turn the pages you have to physically take the book out of the stand.

No, I wouldn't call it easy. It's not extra hard but you have to physically deviate the page out of the way of the page holder. It's kind of easy to pull a page out from behind the holder, however, placing it back behind the other page holder is hard. The page holder and book are pressing against each other and you have to use two hands probably to counter the resistance and loosen the page holder while holding the book. I just tested this now on a soft-back reference book and it was not easy to turn the page and re-fasten it behind the page holder on the left side.

Unfortunately no it is not set up to flip the pages on its own, however the hp office app that you use with it allows you to arrange pages in the screen and subtract that pesky last page that it often blank for me on the screen. Sorry couldn't be of more help!

It's easy as long as I don't clamp the two supports down tight - I leave them a little loose so I can pull the pages up over them from the right and tuck them into the left. If they were clamped down tight, it would be difficult.

Yes, it rolls all the way back. You can make a triangle out of the top half by folding it, that way you can prop it up on the longer side when you are reading. It is stable enough if you are putting it on top of a table, but might be slightly unstable if you are putting on a soft bed. Hope this helps.

No- the lip that hold the e-reader or tablet would make turning the pages very difficult.

Easy is always subjective, but as others have noted, the clips that hold the pages can be adjusted, making it relatively easy to turn pages while keeping a book or document in place. I still love my Cosmos for it's ease of use, multiple adjustment options, light weight, and beautiful Caribbean sea turquoise color.

Not sure I understand your question. It doesn't magnify well if you lay it directly on the page. It requires holding it away, which doesn't allow hands free. But for the price, it's ok.

YES! There is a little "arm" that flips up on each side to hold pages open. "Arms" are padded so they do not leave any marks on the pages. I can be reading, walk away and when I come back later, my pages are still open at the place I finished. Hope this helps!

This is bound perfectly. Enough so the pages turn easily but it doesn't come undone. Hope this helps.

Yes! I was just reading a large, heavy book, hands free! You have to use it in the unfolded position.

If the page holders are place it is difficult to turn pages. I just use it without page holders in place, they remain out of the way I can turn the pages easily.

If you don't have your document secured in the "clips", turning pages is very easy. With the curved shape, your document and/or book stays put without the clips.

While you don't have to hold the book, you do need to turn the pages, and depending on the type of binding, some books will not open flat, so every time you turn the page, you need to move the bottom lever to tuck the page under it.

I would imagine so. Seems the thing that holds the book open could be loosened and pages turned with one hand.

Yes, but I found that it works better if you cut around the page turning buttons for easier access.

Well, you can, but is stands up with the long axis in the verticle, so unless you have a table which puts the open Kindle at eye level, it is not very useful for reading.
