AI-generated summary
For £25.98 ex-VAT, the Targus AWU100205GL laptop stand is one of those “boring but useful” buys—assuming you actually need an ergonomic lift rather than more connections. In day-to-day office use, the value is mainly in keeping the screen at a better height and freeing desk space (particularly helpful for hot-desking setups or smaller UK office desks). If your team sits for long stretches—accounts, admin, support, analysts—this is a straightforward way to make the workstation feel less cramped without paying for a premium desk ecosystem.
That said, I wouldn’t treat it like a “must-have” unless your laptop usage is consistent and you’re willing to adjust your posture accordingly. If you already have an external monitor or you’re constantly moving laptops between locations, a stand can end up feeling like clutter rather than comfort. Also, given it’s listed under hubs/switches, don’t expect any connectivity benefits—this is about physical positioning, not I/O. Overall: good value for people who want simple ergonomics on a budget, not the right pick if your main issue is ports, docking, or desk flexibility.
