Couchmaster Lapboard² - Couch Gaming USB-Hub Desk for Mouse & Keyboard (for PC, PS4/5, Xbox One/Series X|S)

I really wanted this thing to suck so I could send it back, but, it's awesome and works great. Super sturdy, holds my Corsair K100 no problem and still has plenty of room for the mouse pad. I think even my special edition K100 with 18 G keys would easily fit. It is very well engineered and I was very surprised the cable was so well built and long enough to reach across the room. I think they should update it to maybe add on some USB C and extra more external accessible USB A ports. Since it sort of sucks to unscrew/screw the back open to add anything I just added a small USB hub for my HOTAS setup. I have a Wart Hawg HOTAS and I don't even have to power the hub I added on. Is it worth the cost? I think so, I sure couldn't find anything to compete with it and it does the job. It makes playing ESO and Star Citizen much better with a solid foundation under the controls.

The cable that comes with it is very long and is able to carry enough power that I have keyboard, mouse, game pad, phone, and a headset all plugged in and working just fine. I had to add a small usb 3.0 hub otherwise I was one port short but now I have some extra.Build quality feels really sturdy. I bought the version that doesn’t come with the cushions and I’ve used the included velcro to attach it on my treadmill. It’s really nice and sits still and I have no problem leveling a character in World of Warcraft while walking on the treadmill now. I don’t review products often but I might buy a second one of these so I had to share. I had it in my wishlist for a really long time and wish I had bought it sooner.

Super well made and well thought out for I/O. For the price, though, it's a shame there aren't any pads on the bottom. Its very hot and pretty uncomfortable as-is. I bought a couple long keyboard wrist rests and Velcro'd them to the bottom. It makes it 100% better, but added a lot to the cost. This lapboard is probably the best available lapboard (RIP Roccat Sova) but you'll need to mod it unless you are ok with hot, sweaty legs.

Seems to be an expensive item for something that's effectively replacing a wooden plank. (definitely looks prettier than one). That being said, I cannot imagine setup without this. We bought it for my wife to game on her PC at the living room TV. The USB 3 extension cable that it comes with is plenty durable which is a must in this environment as she has dogs walking on and around this cable frequently.The plastic is surprisingly durable and houses the inner USB hub quite well.The ONLY drawback I can think of is the back panel plates. They're secured with a number of tiny phillips head screws that make changing devices a pain. (while you probably aren't going to change devices frequently, she has had a couple instances where her controller has come unplugged from the inner hub and screw removal is problematic given that the mouse and keyboard then have to dangle below the tray while you play operation with 20 screws. If they were magnetic or you had a quick access port to the hub via the top of the tray I think it would be that much better (maybe a gen 2 idea).Definitely fits the bill and is something I can't imagine not having at this point.

Love the product

Pros: You can use a full size keyboard and mouse, integrated USB 3 hub, responsive, convenient 15' USB 3 cable with quick disconnectCons: Price, no wrist rest or tray to hold keyboard and mouse in place. Full size mouse pad. Every time you move this thing the keyboard and mouse are going to fall off.Ok, this is definitely not for everyone. If you are looking at this, you have a very, very specific need. That is you want to be able to use a full size gaming keyboard and mouse (cabled) and want to be able to sit on your couch or recliner and play games on a 4K TV or something across the room. You want something fairly substantial in size (1" x 14" x 33") that will sit across your lap and be able to play for fairly long periods of time. If that sounds like you and what you need, then this may work for you.If you are on a budget and want something cheap, then move on. This thing is way too expensive for what it is. Come on, its a hollow board with a USB hub inside it and a mouse pad glued onto it. Nothing more. No wrist rest, no rail to keep your keyboard and mouse for sliding off every time you move it, nothing else.For me the main concern is the size. I needed something BIG. Much bigger than the random imported stuff that Amazon is selling. The only thing I found in that category for gaming is this. All the others I have found were made for 13" laptops and act as a portable desk or something. All of them were too small for me. Nothing substantially large enough to fit a full size keyboard and mouse. So for that purpose alone, this works. It is long enough to sit fully across the two arms of my recliner and let me play while across the room. That is basically it.Price wise - yes it sucks. But for me if I had purchased this instead of the 4 or 5 other lap desks I had tried beforehand that I had tried to get to work - it would have been an even wash.I am knocking 2 stars off for the price and the fact that there is no keyboard or mouse rail to hold them in place when you move this. Because when you move it off your lap (or even tilt it up too much) - its pretty much guaranteed that no matter how careful you try and move that things will simply slide off this thing. It's basically a given.
