Lightning Review: Kangaroom Bamboo Laptop Stand and Charging Station

12:00PM July 2, 2008 | Jason Chen

The Gadget: Kangaroom’s laptop stand and charging station, which offers a ventilated laptop stand as well as two phone/iPod holders so you can have a place to charge your gear without cluttering up your desk. It’s even tilted, since many laptop users enjoy typing at an angle.


The Price: US$45

The Verdict: We’ve been fans of Kangaroom’s organisational kits for a while now, and this bamboo laptop stand continues their tradition of quality organisational products with a gadgety tint. In this case, this product design combines four good concepts into one useful device.

• Laptop stands = useful
• Things made out of bamboo = fun for eco-fetishists and pandas
• Gadget charger dock = good times for gadget-heads
• Ventilated middle = keeps your laptop cool

And all of those features in a sturdily constructed shape means we’d gladly pay the US$45 for one of these. It even feels nice when you take it off a desk and put it on your lap, giving a nice bamboo barrier between a hot laptop and your fleshy (uncharred) thighs.
