Booklift Document Holder

Well, it didn't look much when it arrived, but it's actually very good. I have a number of computer books which are 600+ pages long, and this holds them perfectly and is nice and sturdy. You can adjust the angle too, and the design does not damage the book. An excellent purchase.

Good: It folds up very nicely. Has quite a wide set of viewing angles Easy to setup and take down The page holding pegs are a nice touch. Very light. Bad: Flimsy – being made out of plastic rather than metal means that it can’t really take a battering. The back in particular looks quite vulnerable to being snapped. I’d hoped to be able to just throw it in a bag and cart it around, but I think I’m going to have to be a bit more careful. Overall: It’s really good – I’ve never tried using one of these before, but this appears to be doing the job

My colleagues have commented on what a neat piece of equipment this is and I agree, it folds away easily to slide down the side of my monitor and although lightweight, it has no trouble supporting a heavy lever-arch file or large number of individual sheets. It can be adjusted to a number of angles, as required. Since starting to use it, I no longer experience neck pain whilst working and am really impressed to have such an excellent aid for an affordable price. Highly recommend.

First Impressions: This is cheap. There is flex in it, and the plastic seems brittle so that if you pull and bend it a lot I imagine it could snap. However holding a book in a single position it should do well. It is cheap, so you can't expect metal parts. The angle it holds at is 45degree to 60 degree. It's not very upright, but then for a desk holder you do want some angle on it. I'm using it to hold physics books for studying, but I imagine it will hold single sheets and thinner books also. If this was used in an office environment I'm not sure it would last long but as a home user it will be fine for me. Folds flat for easy storage/transportation.

I purchased this to replace one that I had had for years but the placed holder regularly slipped and so purchased this. This is absolutely no better and frankly was a waste of money. I'm surprised becuause Fellowes usually means quality. Not on this product, I'm afraid.

Might not be a thing of beauty but it is a thing that is very useful. I bought it for use at home. I have bought other book holders but sadly they never held a really large book well and I have a lot of very large books but these days are too heavy for me to hold and I do not like reading with a book flat on lap or table and me bending over it. This has held every book I have put in it well and no overbalancing. The only slightly negative thing about it is the fact the parts that hold the book open do not slide so are not adjustable. The still hold the pages open on a book but the page is curved a bit so have to hold it with a finger so can read it easily but that is only at the start of a book, once more pages are read it is fine. Similar problem as you near the end but again it does still hold even the largest book open at your page and no slipping off the page. It is very light and folds up well so could easily be carried around in say a laptop bag along with laptop without either being harmed. So perfect if you want a book holder that holds lots of different sized books that cannot be kept in one place.

I use this frequently when I'm translating books, or comparing different books for study. Despite the material, it can really withstand some heavy books. I've tried it with books which are 500+ pages and it copes fine. The only flaw is that the two pop-up plastic parts which secure the book aren't too sturdy. This means with certain books that it won't hold open the book until you're on page 30 or so of a 300-400 page books. I suspect this may be in part due to the type of binding used in the book. Overall it's fantastic value for money.

It's hard to imagine such a simple piece of plastic could turn out to be so useful, but it really has. I regularly read large technical books as part of my coding work, which often require alternating between flicking through pages, and typing into a keyboard. The 'context switching' of doing both is surprisingly difficult. Often, I'll start typing something, and then the book will slam shut 300 pages in. Technical books weren't designed to be portable! This is a very simple solution. Rather than looking down at a book, I can stare straight ahead and keep my place. The clips at the bottom hold the page straight, and are thin enough not to get in the way. This has made dealing with textbooks SO much easier. It's sturdy and well-built, too - doesn't feel like it'll fall apart anytime soon.

Excelente. Gostei.muito e vai atender perfeitamente

Soffrivo di dolori al collo allucinanti per colpa dello studio, che obbliga a tenere il collo storto per ore. Con questo leggio mi sono letteralmente salvata. E' carino, leggerissimo ma robusto, completamente pieghevole e trasportabile ovunque sia in una borsa che in uno zaino (chiuso è completamente piatto). Comodi i ''piedini'' sul davanti che reggono le pagine col libro aperto. A mio avviso è perfetto come leggio da tavolo, se si vuole leggere a letto sì e no, ma se non si è troppo esigenti è utilizzabile anche sulle gambe a letto o sul divano. Per chi se lo chiedesse non è utilizzabile anche per i computer portatili. Chiunque studi tanto DEVE prenderlo e liberarsi per sempre dai dolori al collo. Regge anche bei libri-mattoni di Diritto. :)

Exactly what I wanted. Adjustable. Perfect for my home office.

vraiment utile et fonctionnel

Buen producto, justo como la descripción.
