I bought this for my Macbook Pro and found out I can't use it with the power cord plugged in, which is how I usually use my laptop. Because of the design of the USB plug it completely blocks the power port. I wish there was a warning on the specifications, that this is not a Mac friendly product.

I use this for a 17" Dell with 8gb ram and 1tb hard drive. The computer gets HOT. I have had problems with the computer over heating on other cooler stands. This cooler does a GREAT job of keeping it cool. The only reason I don't give it 5 Stars is the LED light. It is way too bright. I will be adding electrical tape to it as the light has the planes that fly over my house confused and trying to land. Petty, yes, but it does keep it from receiving 5 stars.

I happened to get a bad one, where only one of the two fans was operational. Nevertheless, even in this state, it did a great job cooling down my Macbook Pro. I'm returning it for another copy of the same model.

It does a good job in cooling your laptop if you don't mind having a big hunk of metal on your desk or in your lap. To make good use of it you have to have it on the 'high' setting but what you get is a mini jet engine coming from under your laptop.

Much improved over previous versions, this keeps your laptop cool even under heavy use and abuse and recharging. Blue status LED is rather bright, but I can live with it. Rubber feet on the top can be pulled off easily if you're not careful about how you store this in your bag.

I'm buying this fan for the third time, not because they break, but because I now own 3 laptops. My original is still running like new after about 5 years. The fan makes all the difference in the world, it keeps the built in fan in the laptop from ever having to run. The computer runs soooo cool, I'm sure it is extending the life of the processor. If you sit on your couch with a laptop on your legs, and have felt the "burn", then you need this product. Buy this fan!

I got this for my 2011 MBP 15". Unlike some other reviews, this unit does work when the computer is on battery power and plugged in. The low setting is very quite and high is tolerable. My laptop runs pretty hot so I needed something to help keep it cool. The price was great!!

On the whole, an excellent product. It is quiet and efficient. The USB cord to connect to the computer, though, is too short. It's a shame they couldn't have made it a little longer.

I use this product with my laptop that is around five years old. The fans inside don't work too well at times, so I decided to try this out after reading several good reviews. This fan won't let you down, it works very well. My laptop never overheats any more, as it did before getting this, even with other brand's fans. This works well, keeps the laptop cool, and also has high and low settings. It even has a light on the side to show that it is powered up. I would recommend this to anyone, especially for the quality and price.

Nice and easy to use. Just plug in the USB and you are ready! Has a low and high speed, both are quiet and the fans displace plenty of air up and around your laptop.

I use this cooler for a laptop that is on continuously. Before the cooler, the CPU fan would run now there are no obvious hot spots in the CPU area or the HDD area. I didn't notice any info in the description that there is a Hi/Low fan speed switch. This definitely helps in lowering the noise level from acceptably noticeable to almost imperceptible. Glad I have this cooler.

Comments about Antec USB Notebook Cooler (Aluminum/Black):
It fits under 15" MacBook rather nicely.
Fans are relatively quiet on low speed setting, and a bit too loud on high setting. Fan noise is of quite good character, low frequency and steady, noticeable but can be easily tolerated for long durations of time (and I am very picky about noise).
Tested it while monitoring all 14 temperature sensors in my MacBook (crazy, isn't it?), and made the conclusion that if you hit CPU hard, temperatures will go up one way or another, but with cooler turned on, once period of high load is over, temperature does down quickly, while in normal circumstances heat soak is keeping everything hot for a long time.
Well worth the price, bought a second one for the office use.
