I have degenerative disk disease in my neck & migraines, so I can't look down. Could you put this on lap & read without looking down? Thank you!

It all depends on if you use your eyes to look down only. I use it for my IPAD. I also have Arthritis in my neck. This product works for me.

As long as you set it high enough, as on a table, books, etc. I think lap would cause you to look down.

If u are laying down the peeramid pillow will work, but if ur sitting in a chair prob not. U might want to use a tv tray or hospital side table that is adjustable.

I had a c5-6,6-7 fusion, then a t-3,4,5 tumor removal - in a recliner I use two bed pillows with the peeramid on top - it is not quite large enough for my Kindle, but it helps a lot. On you lap - I don't think it would be high enough, but mine has been a god-send for the additional support for the kindle

Yes you can. It works quite well with either a book or your e-reader if you sit it on a pillow or two. Hope this helps.

I really love mine and use it all the time but it does require me to look down when I use it in my lap. If it was placed and a table (ie kitchen table) I believe you might still need to look down an inch or two.

Yes, on my lap it works without problems. In bed, when you lie down it may be difficult :-)

I think whether you have to bend down to read comfortably depends more on your height and the height of the table/counter you put the cookbook holder on. I haven't experienced any discomfort when trying to read using this product. Sorry if this isn't helpful.

I am currently using it on the top of my desk. It definitely helps to not have to strain your neck. I currently have it on the second setting, and it works out fine for eye level.

No Problem, there is a lip that you set tablet or kindle on, then adjust the level/height you want for viewing/reading. Karen

No. This is more like a plate holder. It's meant for a flat non-moving surface. It also puts the tablet at an angle that would be sub-optimal for reading.

Yes you can read, but you will need two pillows under your head I love my IPEVO, although you will have to Velcro it together, so it will not open a little.

Hi, sorry it took me so long to reply. My mom does not like using a computer so she jots the readings down in a notebook. I know that's not much help...

I would imagine you could. But a friend of mine and my brother who work on computers don't advise having the bottom of your lap top to close to a surface so the fans have room to cool. This is why I bought this. Because I'm in my bed a lot due to spinal surgery and other medical problems. I want to do every thing I can not to have the expense of having to buy another lap top. I've added little rubber feet to keep it on the stand.

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.

Yes, but the angle it creates is not that great for reading. Also, your stomach moves as you breathe, which make reading a little more challenging.

I would be hesitant to try this for two reasons. One, I don't see there being enough room to do this and leave reasonable space to navigate the mouse. The second, and maybe more important, I would not really "rest" my hand or wrist on this. I don't think it would bear any real weight at all without placing stress on the armature.

You're not supposed to stare into it. It's best if it's slightly above you like a reading lamp shining on your material and you just glance up occasionally. I finally figured this out because I get light induced migraines. this apporoach gives me the advantage of the lights without the accompanying headaches.

Yes - I would think it would work fine for paperbacks ! Since it sits on your lap, you could just put it on a pillow to make it higher and less neck bending.

The magnifier must be held few inches above the book. I assume that this would be awkward for prolonged reading.

It is ok, but to keep it on your lap, you would require the laptop stand to be placed on some soft material. Since its base edges are sharp, it's not comfortable to keep it directly on lap.

Not at eye level, certainly not 2ft in any way I can figure. My landscape oriented 23" monitors are about 8" above the desktop. However, if you tilt the monitor back, you can stand and look down on the monitor. I frequently do this when drafting documents via Dragon - it may be psychological, but I feel like I think better on my feet!
