Antec Cooler November 24, 2009 mc This cooler is the best cooler I ever had. I used targus and another brand before, but they both broke in about a year and they were not doing a good job cooling my laptop. The antec cooler does a great job in terms of cooling. It sucks the hot air in, so that the aluminum top does not get all hot and warm up my computer (like the other coolers did). The temperature of my computer has never been better. I don't know how durable it is, because I only have it for a month, but even if it breaks I am still going to buy the same brand. In terms of noise, it is a bit noisier than the previous coolers, but that's because of the suction, I guess. All in all it is a great cooler.
Great product November 24, 2009 C. J. Zhou Purchased this for my MSI GX630 gaming laptop. Works perfectly right out of the box - just plug and play. My laptop is already REALLY quiet, but this thing flies under the radar even more. I like the blue LED and the fan speed settings, and the cooling quality is good. The only thing that it lacks is an on/off switch, which is no big deal since I leave my laptop running overnight most of the time anyways. Overall great buy!
Pretty Good November 17, 2009 Bobby Riddim (new york, ny) Laptop was overheating causing unexpected shut down. This fan has kept the laptop cool enough to stay on and not shut down. Try different seating arrangements for you laptop on the fan.
Bad design, terrible for big laptops, broke quickly November 16, 2009 Simon Bayangos (San Francisco, CA USA) I'll keep this short and bitter. I have a 17" laptop (Gateway 7811) that I play games on. Wanted something not too bulky to sit between the laptop and my lap and provide some additional cooling.
This thing is a little too small for a laptop of this size but doesn't do too badly. The #1 main issue is the terrible USB plug design. The power plug piece broke due to cord placement. Overall, when working, it provided a very small amount of cooling (about 4-5 degrees according to speedfan). The inability to turn off the super bright blue LED, the cord storage panel on the bottom popping off frequently, and the overall cheap quality of design/materials all contributed to me hating this thing. But the terrible USB power plug design was really the main issue. That plug will snap or break, it's only a matter of time.
Antec does the job November 15, 2009 David Nobel (North Dartmouth, MA USA) After over a month, I am very satisfied with the Antec Cooler and would order it again. Durability is still an open question, but at this price, I would be very happy to get two years out of it.
PROS
Fairly priced
Relatively quiet
Light weight
Effective cooling with my Macbook Pro 15"
Well-designed to carry around with laptop
Pass-through design of USB plug frees up port
CONS
"On" light is a laser-like blue LED from hell
