would like to know how do the bookstand holders move, do you have to slide them to turn pages or do you pull them forward ?

The holders can be moved sideways in either direction (left or right) to turn pages. But they can also be pulled toward you to move pages. You have a choice. I have no trouble moving my holders either way.

The holders will have to be pulled out away from the pages to flip pages, then replaced on pages. At least that is how I have to work my stand. The holders do not move very easily on my stand.

They slide sideways. Hold between your thumb and forefinger then push (or pull) with your thumb along the long axis.

There is a magnet inside the flat board, near the top. I can tell it helps to hold my iPad and keep it from falling forward. I don't believe that magnets this weak can damage the digital readers, because my keyboard connects to my iPad magnetically and I've been using that for years.

I have not used it for books but, I love mine. Very durable and easy to fold and move.

I bought an acrylic book holder on ebay. You can check there. Read sellers reviews before purchase.

Yes you would just have to hold the book horizontally. They slip in from the sides. I have pictures displayed both ways and put a page of vertical pictures together and 2 pages of horizontal pictures together.

Of course, but if you'll need to use the pages holders and the book is thinner than half and inch it may not push the page down tightly against the back of the stand. It will still hold the page back though. How small of a book are we talking?

These holders are removable and can be moved from base to base. Just lift the holder up slightly and turn the holder 180 degree to lift it the rest of the way out.

jasmine book stand is for read, if you want to write, you need to hold the book stand with other hand to stablize it . otherwise,it might slide backwards.

It only pulld down. You have to lift it off the holder and then you can move it in whatever direction you want.

yes. at the moment, i am reading a small paperback book while using the bookstand. but, before reading a new paperback, i always take the time to fold back each page. this way the book stays more "flat" and is easier to handle, whether in a bookstand or in your hand.

The short answer is no. The major flaw in this product is the deck. Its not deep enough...there's not enough of it. It's not good for thicker books because the pages sag below the deck. But it's better than not having any bookstand! Also, there's a matter of the metal page holders which sometimes require both hands to navigate. Hope this helps!

There's a small prong that keeps the book cover in place. So long as the book you pick is big enough the cover will stay up. I've had my shelf installed for over a month and it hasn't slipped once.

I've got every shelf (except for the top, most shallow one) filled with a mix of books. It's held up fine, with very little wobble/no tipping at all. This is without the wall attachment, meaning I've just got it just leaning at an angle against my wall.

I push the books toward the spine. Most of them are of the dize that they reach or almost reach the front of the shelves. i have smaller books on the top shelves that aren't flush with the front, but it still looks good. Hope this helps.

I tried using it one-handed (both left and right) and if you press the book you can use your fingers to move the bar. I have used mine for magazines, newspapers, books, and my Kindle. I use mine daily!!

I lifted one side of the book out of the holder and turned the page, then slid it back in the holder. It worked ok.
