I initially bought this stand for my 12.9” iPad Pro and it’s been a perfect companion, providing just the right amount of support and flexibility when I’m drawing in apps like Procreate, Concepts and Affinity Designer in my home studio. The stand is very sturdy, has a rubberized lip on which the tablet rests securely without slipping, and offers a variety of height adjustments to get just the right angle while drawing. I am so much more comfortable while I work now. In fact, because if its design, I can use this stand at my illustration table, even with the top tiled to about 30˚. This also makes it a practical solution for using my iPad with an external keyboard while I’m doing other work, browsing the net, watching videos or simply typing a review on Amazon. It’s worth pointing out that this stand can work with most tablets and drawing tablet monitors with screens of 16” or less, as I discovered first hand after buying the XP-Pen Artist 15.6 Pro Drawing Pen Display Monitor (XP-Pen’s alternative to Wacom’s comparably-sized Cintiq) just last week. While I love the device, the included non-adjustable stand leaves a lot to be desired. So, I grabbed this one from my studio, put it onto my desk and set up the drawing monitor. It works every bit as well with a 16” drawing tablet monitor as it does with the 12.9” iPad Pro. I can easily adjust the height so that it’s comfortable to draw at my desk and I don’t have to battle with the device’s cords, since I can just tuck them behind the stand. So, now I use this stand with my active device, while the other gets placed on the one from XP-Pen while it’s not in use. At some point, I’ll probably pick up a second Parblo stand so that each device has its own dedicated to it. That’s mostly so I don’t have to set this up every time I want to work, but can just sit down and get right to it. I definitely recommend this graphic tablet stand from Parblo for anyone working on a drawing tablet, graphics display monitor or tablet like the iPad Pro. It’s definitely worth the price for the comfort and stability it provides. If you found this review helpful, please mark it as helpful, as this helps other users. Thanks. Read more

I'm really impressed with the quality of this stand. I wanted a stand to hold my iPad at a better angle for drawing, lettering, and when using my iPad as a second screen for my laptop. I am very happy with this purchase. The Photos: First photo shows the stand with an 12.9" iPad Pro. The stand is perfectly sized for this size tablet. Second photo shows the back of the stand. You can see how the iPad just barely extends past the edge of the stand. Third photo shows the 12.9" iPad in portrait position (again, mainly to show the size of the stand in relation to the tablet) Fourth photo shows the back of the stand. You adjust the tilt of the stand by pulling up on the little slider tab, set the stand to your preferred angle and then release the slider to lock the stand in position. The stand is very well made with quality materials. It supports the tablet well and remains stable as you draw or type on the screen. I tried using it to hold my 15 inch Macbook at a more ergonomic angle, but the weight of the laptop is a little much, resulting in there being too much "bounce" when trying to type. I don't think it would be a good option as a laptop stand unless you have a very light touch as you type. The lip at the bottom of the stand is a flexible rubber material that serves two purposes. First it makes the stand more stable and keeps it from moving when you work with it. Second, the lip it creates for holding your tablet can flex allowing for thicker tablets or perhaps tablets in a cover. I use it with my iPad and no cover and the fit is perfect. The Parblo PR 100 tablet stand is ideal for the 12.9 inch ipad. It's adjustable angles accomodate multiple drawing angles as well a 90 degree angle to hold the tablet when using it as a second monitor. Read more

I have a literal pile of stands that I've purchased over the years...my goal was to find one that I could use for both drawing and general viewing on my tablets. Some are better than others, but they all have one thing in common - none of them are FULLY adjustable. Most are fine for drawing at a low angle, but none can support a steep angle, much less a full 90°. Then I stumbled across this Parblo stand. It's everything I ever wanted, a sturdy stand that can support all of my devices (I use a 12.9" iPad Pro for the most part, and it fits perfectly. But I have other tablets as well, including a 15.6" drawing monitor and they all work great on this thing.)...and can be adjusted to ANY angle I want! It has the same kind of sliding/locking mechanism found built-in on many larger Huion/other drawing monitors, which I happen to think is a much better solution than most stands that can only be propped up at a few predetermined angles. This stand is also SOLID. It is not going to fall or slide out of position by accident since the slider locks into place when you release the tab. The "foot" and bottom of the stand are covered in a rubberized silicon type material which keeps everything from sliding around your desk. (The bottom of the stand features a "bracket" made of this material, which I found a little creepy at first, but after using it realized it's actually pretty genius. The soft material cradles the bottom of your tablet, gripping it firmly so it won't slide, but the material is soft and smooth so it won't leave any scratches.) Overall I LOVE this stand and am thrilled to have found it. Well worth the price if you ask me! Read more
