Will this swivel so the two wheels shown on the right are flat against a sofa and the top holding the laptop is over the sofa? Or is the top always over the long base?

This stand is lucky to stand on its own I had to secure it to 2 corner walls to keep it studry. This thing is junk but I didn't find that out till it was all together . Do yourself a favor and look for something else.

The wheels do swivel anyway you wish to position your cart. The back wheels (right side) have locking features to prevent the cart from rolling in the locked position. The base has adjustment knobs to allow you to position the tray in the position that you need it to be, and at you desired height. The top tray can be adjusted to a slanted position for easier viewing too. I love my cart. It works for me!I set my 17.3 inch laptop on the stand, and have it tilted for viewing. If I want to change position for the top, I just relieve the knob, and simply change the center post assembly to the position that I need. Then I re-tighten the knob. I can have it done in just a few minutes. The wheels do swivel anyway you wish to position your cart.

I don't have a protractor to measure the actual angles so I have to give you the data in terms of inches. Here goes: the flattest setting has the front of the laptop sitting 1/2" above the tabletop and the hinged side about 3" above the tabletop. There are four settings and each, in order, raises the hinged side of the laptop to 5.5", 6.25", 6.5" and 6.75". I find the lowest setting to be helpful for me if I have a lot of typing to do. If I'm just reading and surfing using my mouse, the higher settings are very helpful.

I don't think so. There was another model that we were considering that tilted, but that one had a ledge or something to keep your laptop from sliding off when it's in a tilted position.

Yes my 17in laptop goes on it. It is a little wiggly but it works. I did not try propping it up yet.

The base does not swivel. I mounted it on the wall. The wall mount swivels.

Very true. My laptop has a rounded front. The low height of the pegs and the weight of the laptop combined leaves the laptop in a very vunerable position. It's slid off a couple of times.

I have a 50" LCD Flat Screen TV on it but I am not using the swivel. I turned the swivel to the inside when I assembled the stand so I don't know if that would make a difference in stability.

It's not wide enough to support a laptop. I use it for laundry soap, dryer sheets, etc. Hope this helps

When placed on a desk with the legs deployed in a 'Z' configuration it is quite solid unless one would lean heavily on it. I'm 5'4" and I could easily type on the laptop standing up by the desk. The stand could be raised quite a few inches higher for someone taller and still remain fairly solid. I've uploaded a photo showing my installation over my Logitech Momo sim racing wheel.

This is for you! The base stays put while the top swivels. I like this product a lot and recommend it, especially for older, heavier television sets (which I will not get rid of - who needs HD or 3D?). Hope this helps you decide!

Funny you should ask :-).....that's exactly the reason I bought it. My daughter sets her laptop on it when she's in bed. That way, it doesn't overheat, and it doesn't fall on the floor. Perfect!

I have mine tilted forward as much as possible. It raised the very front of the laptop up by 4", the area where the keys begin by 5" and the back where the screen is attached by 7". I have a 15" laptop

I do not know the exact dimensions, but the main section holds my 17" laptop without overhang. The non tilting section is fairly large and a good amount of space. I don't know how sturdy it is without the wheels, but the base is pretty sturdy. It is the part that hold the top that I am disappointed in, it is feeling flimsy and moves around a lot. Also, at 30" at the shortest, it is too high if you are sitting on a couch or in a recliner. I would not recommend this product.

It holds it in place somewhat, it will kinda slide down till it reaches the lip on the edge. Inspite of this slight inconvenience, have still been happy with it. I have an 17" laptop on it that I think because it is kinda heavy would move on anything it is placed on.

Yes, it just slides over the top. Buckles secure it at the bottom and sides as seen in the picture. The wheels are not protected they are open as seen.

The shape of the swivel is a half circle. Measuring mine, if your TV base is a rectangle, the back of the base will hang over about an inch. The back of my TV base is rounded, so it does not hang over. I hope this helps.

Yes, I bought this and found it was too tall with the wheels to fit under my couch. The wheels just screw into the bottom and without them it's flat. However, the screws hold in the plastic caps on the base so I ended up wrapping some electrical tape around the part of the caps that fit inside the metal base to make them fit more snugly and keep them in place otherwise they would just fall out. I also added stick on felt pads to the bottom of the metal base on each of the four corners since I am using it on a wood flood. It is working great now and easily slides under my couch.
