I have had it for about a month. I replaced it with this magma vektor mainly because of its size. It is a bit more compact when closed and fits inside the bag I have, which has limited space. It is much more durable and stable than the Magma, less flexible but much more stable and easy to open and close. I chose this one because it also has a metal plate that attaches to various height positions under the laptop, which is very convenient as it prevents the mess that can occur with external hard drives, etc. It doesn't touch anything underneath. Additionally, it can be screwed onto furniture with an additional attachment (which I haven't tried) that will presumably provide ultimate stability.
