Work from the comfort of your chair. When we first designed our Original Lap Desk in 1992, we sought to create an expansive, portable workspace for reading, writing and working on a laptop. A design that would be easy to store and beautiful too. The shape was so unique we patented it. With the Levenger Lap Desk, you can sit in your favorite chair and do serious work. It's long, strong and ultra-light, and provides a sturdy surface for your laptop and notebook. A Levenger 35th Anniversary Heritage Product.
