Lap desk - Advice on Buying

I’m convinced that setting my iPad on my lap is not doing my neck any good.

Since it’s Prime Days, I’m checking out the little breakfast tray type tables. Any I’ve looked at have bad reviews for the leg stability.

Has anyone found a nice deep lap desk?

@Jules i had the same issue looking at / using my iPad …I was getting a stiff sore neck , so I went to Clarke Rubber
store where you can get foam ….cut to the size you want …. in my case I got a “scrap piece” of high density foam for next to nothing ( the H.D .is firmer ) .

I mostly use my ipad while sitting on the lounge

14 inches long ….6 inches high …8 inches wide ….i put that on my lap and sit the iPad on top of it ..it’d just the right height for me …I sew ,so i covered the foam which I put a zip in to take it off if it needed washing ( the cover)

I was going to mention what we Aussies call a stable table but they are to low for me I was still getting a neck ache using one of them .

Sorry for not responding sooner. I just saw these replies.

@Fritz, I’ll look for something like that.

@Kadee, you and I have the same neck problem. I can’t do all the fancy things you did. I need to find a work around because I know this isn’t healthy sitting like this.

During Prime days I spent ages searching for something. Found one thing and then read the reviews. Bad.

This is the best thing I ever invested in.
It fits my IKEA rocking chair perfectly and holds books I'm reading or my smart phone right in front of my face.

What about a piece of foam ….like I mentioned ,and just put it in a pillow case, and fold or tuck in excess fabric under when using it ….or you may find a half size pillow slip somewhere @Jules the covering is only for keeping it clean …cause if you are like me sipping a cuppa while playing games on iPad

I had never ending headaches from looking down at iPad
