Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Belkin F5L001 Laptop Cooling Pad
Customer Review: Great until it broke
Summary: 2 Stars
this was a great way to cool off my laptop, but after about 3 months of use the back legs broke , once they broke it was completely useless, the fan still works and everything, but i can't use it because it can't stand up anymore. the legs are made of thin plastic that connect at 2 points to the back of the cooler, they need to be much thicker or connect at more points. so its back to fan shopping for me.Customer Review: cheaply made
Summary: 2 Stars
This is extremely easy to use- but it seems extremely flimsy. The plastic feels cheap, the fan is noisy, and the design of the product is poor in my opinion in that the "stand" at the bottom does not lock into place - so that if i scoot it away from me - it collapses. Additionally - my laptop slides off the top quite easily. Very poor design. I cannot stand this product - though it does keep my laptop cooler. Customer Review: I'd try something else....
Summary: 2 Stars
I've had this for a while.
The good:
-While it worked it kept my laptop awesomely cool.
-Fairly quiet
The bad:
Fan has now quit working (about a year in, so maybe as to be expected)
**FLIMSY STAND!!! the back that is supposed to lift the pad up for air, and for some reason they thought it would be great to use a little plastic door, that can hold the cable for storage, to do this. I have almost completely screwed up my laptop because that stand would suddenly decide not to hold anymore. If i wouldn't have caught it, it would probably be smashed. I was really surprised it was supposed to sit on that. I taped it up and not long after it completely broke off. For the money, they still could have put something a little sturdier to hold it up.
** I think this is very important since I don't think anyone wants a dropped laptop.
- They show in the picture that you can use this in your lap. I never found this successful, partly because of the flimsy stand and party because it was uncomfortable and easy to get your clothes blocking the fan.
I hope I can find something a little better now that the fan finally died....
Customer Review: ehhh.. could've been better

Fast shipping & product looks great, cools down the laptop ...but the fan makes too much noise. Customer Review: Worked great for 2 months...
Summary: 1 Stars
Not worth the [...]; a completely disposable "investment". It worked great for 2 months, then started making a grinding noise and only worked intermittently. Then the DC-in plug pushed into the unit, so I can't use it at all anymore. 3 months of use - not worth it at all. Will be complaining to Belkin, which generally makes good products.
