Does this laptop float? Is there a way to make it float?

Not unless you're tripping. Or have access to a genie. Or can levitate stuff. If you have a genie, or can levitate stuff, I'd like to borrow you the next time we move. Could save a lot of time. Besides, I think you owe us one.

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 just "sits" on your laptop, with a counter-balance weight on the back. It does not clamp (securely or non-securely).

It doesn't make sense to float unless your trying to use it on a large area. I use it in a bird bath and use a rock to weigh it down. Works fine for me.

Ours didn't float at all. It was a family event in FL in August. Maybe you would have better luck.

I'm very happy with mine. I have had no problems. It does have little "feet" on the back that raise the back of the computer a little, but I personally like that. This was a good buy!

I didn't weigh it myself. It is light weight compared to my last laptop for sure. You need a special scale to weigh it. So I can't. Just figure they are right

Yes, it does float, and it works well. I don't like two areas; 1. Zinc Clevis Slip Hook with Latches are rust easily, 2. storage strap doesn't work very well.

It does not slide around while using the laptop but when moving the lapdesk the computer does slide and could fall. When in use it is pretty stable. There is also no room for a mouse to move around if not using a finger mouse on a laptop.

No, the top surface is smooth.... but my laptop has four rubber feet and doesn't slip off at all.

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.

nope it won't float but it'll get knocked out of place if the water from your faucet its it directly, it's solid metal so it won't float

sure hold up the laptop, but if you trying to moved away from you ,it's unstable and your computer may fall

No it doesn't float. It just makes noises as if it were actually hovering. It's not really meant to be stood on either. Just more of a collectors piece.

That's going to depend on how you use it. If you put heavy items in it and/or squeeze all the air out of it, then no. If you put reasonable weight in it and maximize the air in it when you roll it closed, then yes, it should float.

Yes and no. If I positioned it in the perfect right position it would be able to sit but if I moved at all in any direction it would move the fans in a position that would make it get stuck on clothes or something. I would suggest a $15-20 laptop fan. Much sturdier and quieter.

Very true. My laptop has a rounded front. The low height of the pegs and the weight of the laptop combined leaves the laptop in a very vunerable position. It's slid off a couple of times.
