Is this stable when used on one's lap?

Probably not. Unless you are really still and a good balancer. It is just a folding plastic stand and would probably roll off your leg. It is best for a table.

Really not meant to put on a lap. Sits well at a table or on the floor. Very stable and well made.

It does not slip very often. It's happened a couple of times, but mostly if I have it on my lap or something unsteady. On a level surface it's fine.

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.

no I do not believe it could be used in the lap.Weight I would guess three to five pounds.I'm completely happy with the board, don't think it could be any better but not for lap use

Have had no problems with this issue. I often use the laptop on my lap and it seems firm to me.

I have no problems with it being stable. It doesn't tip(unless all your weight is on one edge). Or bounce/shift under you. And I have balance and depth perception issues! So I think you'll be safe.

If it's on your lap and it's at an angle, yes it will. If you have it set on a table or anything flat, it stays upright.

The Lap Pro is designed to be angled by rocking the whole unit up or down with the device in the trough. Place your device in the trough (between the handle and the chassis) and then roll the entire unit away from you make your device face flatter towards the ceiling or towards you to make it face you more. Because it is a beanbag it will hold the position. Your device will never be flat in your lap because the Lap Pro itself is not flat. These instructions were stated in the products description on the selling page here on Amazon. We hope this answers your questions and hope you are pleased with your purchase. -RC-

The only way I think that will work is if you leave off legs and use flat surface. There is nothing underneath the top to stabilize on your lap. The laptop might slide back and forth on the top as there is no guides on sides to keep on to the surface. It works best to transport from hotel to hotel or place to stop during your trip and use.

It is very stable, but I don't recommend you put a monitor on it.i just put my laptop and papers on it.

There is a tab on the bottom that holds an ipad or something of that size up and the top of the Lapgear is held open by an arm, but it would be awkward with the shape of the laptop. That's just for me, however. I just tried my laptop on it, and the weight is supported. As I said, just a bit awkward.

It's very stable. of course, it may depend on the type of carpet, and the height you have it configured to, and the weight of your lap top... but It's rock solid for me with a 15" macbook pro retina on all of the carpet I've ever placed it on.

I tested it and it is very stable and can be used with one hand without tipping. It doesn't seem to slip. The back bar rests against the toilet tank keeping it from moving backwards.

Yes it is stable, however I would use a small fan to ensure longer life of the device.

No. It's quite stable. I cannot use my legs at all but never had any problems. But you always have to be careful for your own safety.

I found that it works very well on your lap, but of course you have to be careful not to tip your legs too suddenly. It is very sturdy and I could not be more pleased with it.
