Still balancing your laptop on a stack of old books? It’s time to upgrade. Having the right laptop stand can make life more comfortable, so you can stop craning your neck while you work. The best stands raise your laptop’s screen (or external monitor!) close to eye level, which is better for maintaining a healthy posture. Some can even fit into a backpack for easy travel or switch configurations from sitting to standing. These are our favorites.

Updated April 2024: Our favorite stand from ObVus Solutions has been discontinued. We’ve moved the Branch stand to the top spot. We’ve also added Logitech’s Casa Pop-Up Desk as a pick, as well as a few more additions to the honorable mentions.
