A laptop riser is a stand designed to elevate your laptop screen to a more comfortable viewing height. It can help improve posture, reduce neck and shoulder strain, create extra desk space and make it easier to achieve a more ergonomic workstation setup.
Position the laptop riser so the screen is directly in front of you, with the top of the screen at or slightly below eye level. Keep the screen roughly an arm’s length away and use an external keyboard and mouse so your elbows can remain comfortably bent and your shoulders relaxed while working.
A laptop riser can help reduce overheating by improving airflow around and underneath the laptop, particularly compared with placing it directly on a desk or soft surface. However, it will not fix underlying cooling issues such as blocked vents, dust build-up or a faulty internal fan.
The amount of desk space depends on the design, but most laptop risers have a relatively compact footprint similar to or smaller than the laptop itself. Elevated designs can also free up usable space underneath, allowing you to store a keyboard, notebook or other desk accessories when they are not in use.
Look for a laptop riser that suits your laptop size and weight, offers good stability and provides the right viewing height for your workstation. Adjustable height and angle settings, non-slip supports, ventilation, durable construction and portability are also useful features, particularly for hot-desking, hybrid work and sit-stand desk setups.
