 Works. September 20, 2008
I have a Dell inspiron 6000 that gets really really really hot... to where I fell almost like I'm getting burned. Enter Chill pad.
I can feel the air being sucked in, and I can put my laptop back on my lap ;)
Pros: Works as described. 1 year warranty if bought new.
Cons: Well, I want to say the cheap material. I'm guessing it costs Tarugus about 1 dollar to make this unit, so its a bit overpriced at 29.99 (21 here on amazon). But this 'cheap' plastic makes it very light so it adds little weight to the laptop... so it's not really a con per se. While I think it should cost about $10 less, it does the job and does it well.
I would recommend this product if you're tired of laptop burns :P
 Mediocre at best September 20, 2008
I'll start with the good. For its price, the device does add a fair amount of circulation to the underside of your notebook. I don't recally my MacBook getting particularly hot while using this, even during downloads. I'm usually wary of powering devices with my computer's battery, but I didn't notice a substantial difference in battery life.
That said, the price is what it is for a reason: it's cheaply built. I've only had it for a few weeks and one of the fans is making distracting noises and most of the rubber inserts have fallen out at least once (and they're easy to lose). Also, said inserts have a tendency to leave nice black markings on your notebook. They come off easily, sure, but it's still irritating. It's also not particularly comfortable on the lap, if you're using it for that.
Personally, I'd go for something slightly more expensive and better quality.
 Don't waste your money! September 16, 2008
I bought one for myself and one for my boyfriend. After having it for 3 months, it totally stopped working. Such a waste of money!
Horrible! September 15, 2008
I orderd this chill pad in May. Didn't actually open and use it until the end of August. it has abruptly stopped working as of last night! Piece of garbage..........
Good product! September 13, 2008
Had this product for 3yrs before it finally quit on me. I just replace it with the Zalman NoteBook Cooler. Notebook Cooler Black
