What's great about it: quiet and efficient
What's not so great: nothing
Cools very well is very quiet. It is really good for using laptop on a bed or sofa because of the open sides and many holes for airflow. I recommend to everyone.

What's great about it: keeps laptop cool
What's not so great: power cord breaks easily
I have a huge laptop, so i bought the largest cooling fan i could. It worked just fine, until one day when i had to start wiggling the power cord whenever i plugged it in. Through general wear and tear it had lost all functionality within a few months. Would not buy from again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Ergonomical, light weight, quiet
Since I bought this fan, my laptop has run more efficiently. It used to get over heated with in minutes and start lagging. It is quiet and keeps my cpu cool. Since I do most of my surfing on my lap, it also keeps my legs from getting warm. Its everything and more for my needs.

What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Does not cool
I bought this when I couldn't find the Belkin chill mat, which is what I'd been using for nearly 3 years. This Targus is the worst chill mat I have ever purchased. The fan pushes very little air and would not keep my laptop cool. I had to shut down my laptop periodically so it wouldn't overheat. Needless to say, I took this chill mat back, and I've repaird my old Belkin.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Easy to use
What's not so great: Stopped working after less than 6 months.
I bought this on Dec 15th, 2011 since my gaming laptop was scorching a circle burn onto my thigh while trying to run SWTOR and WOW...it abruptly stopped working today. Both fans. $40 wasted? Maybe. Depends on if the manufacturer will replace it, which I've written to them and requested. Still stinks, laptop is back to burning my lap.

What's great about it: Really keeps your lap and laptop cool
What's not so great: Kind of a pain to take it on the road, doesn't fit in the laptop case.
I was looking for a laptop chill matt and I've bought several Targus products. It was a little more expensive, but it has two fans which makes it better for active cooling. The ones without a fan are a joke. We've had some 80°F weather already this year and I can sit and use it for 4-5 hours comfortably. The laptop is cooler than ever.
Two issues, 1) There's no room in my 17" Targus laptop case to take it on the road, I do carry a lot of paperwork for work. I also get a warning from the HP laptop that I should switch to a higher wattage power supply if the battery is not 100% when I start. Once the battery charges the message goes away. HP's power supplies are pricey, so I'm not replacing it.

What's great about it: Keeps my laptop ccol enough not to shut down for being overheated and my leg doesn't burn anymore

It keeps my laptop from overheating and shutting down and also keeps me from getting burns that actually blistered up a like a 2nd degree burn.

What's great about it: angled to help set properly on a table. or your lap.
What's not so great: needs to move more air, or have a third fan installed.
I use my laptop a lot during the day, and normally have it setting on my lap, so it was always warm. I purchased this chill mat to help solve the heat problem. It has worked to an extent, however, the fans could put out a little more air, and need to be moved lower on the mat, or a third fan needs to be installed to help cool the lower section of the computer. Overall, I am satisfied with this product as it has helped solve the heat problem while my laptop is on my lap.

What's great about it: insulate me from the heat of the laptop while keeping the laptop cool. Provides a nice working surface
What's not so great: It's a bit thick, but that's not really so bad.
This chill mat is effective at making it easier for me to keep my laptop in my lap for extended periods and with a firm surface does not block the air vents on the PC but instead provides a mild cooling exhaust powered by the PC's USB port. It works for me.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Silent
What's not so great: Doesn't cool well, rubber pads fall off easily.
I buy only Targus brand stuff for my Apple Laptop. The pad is decent but not wort $30 or more. The pad runs silent which is a plus, but the fans don't really work that well. My computer doesn't overheat using it but still gets very hot. The rubber pads that keep it from falling off are definitely not secured well at all. In my opinion Targus definitely could have done better on this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
