Overview

This portable workspace is designed for trips from your dining table to sofa to bed. It keeps your overheated laptop elevated for better ergonomic comfort, has a phone and tablet mount, and a built-in storage tray just below the work surface. Join a video conference on your phone while taking notes on your laptop. Watch a show on your iPad—hands-free and at the right angle. Store your 14" laptop, snacks and cables in the embedded storage tray. Pro-tip: it also doubles as a side table that sits on your sectional or a solid breakfast tray

”A sleek option that even includes cord management, Arlo Skye's The Lap Desk is a good pick for those who use a lap desk more than a traditional desk.”

A review from Katherine

"The design is very clever - the cover can be raised to any height, which is great for sketching or reading. This is my favorite thing I've bought for myself in a long time!"

    Perfect lap desk for work or pleasure

    My wife uses her Stowaway lap desk everyday, whether she's working on her laptop, doing sticker puzzle books, or even having a fresh fruit snack I've prepared for her. With a clever spot to prop up her phone, store pens and books, and a comfortable base, this lap desk has it all.

    Great gift!

    I got this as a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it! He said this was his favorite gift that I've given him, and that he appreciates the quality and feel of it. He uses it to watch basketball games on his iPad and journal before bed. And sometimes I steal it to WFH.
