  • Much sturdier and balanced than first appearances
When the book seat (don't like the name) arrived it looked way too small and stiff to be of use to me. I always read hardcovers and usually quite thick. I tested it with a famously thick book, War and Peace and it held perfectly. The see through page holder can stretch out as far as you need to accommodate book size. I would imagine a very tall book like a coffee table book would be hard to manage, but they're not meant to be read lying down. Second, I had the impression it would be really bean baggy, really floppy on the bottom to adjust well to all irregular surfaces. Again, it looked too small and thin on the bottom. But it works pretty well, and you'd have to work at it to knock it over. So it gets five stars for the book holding function. the only negative for me is the page turning. They say it's "incredibly easy" but that's not true. But I don't think it's possible with any book stand. You don't have to pick the book up, turn page and put it back in again. You leave the book alone, which is a plus. And pulling the page holder is easy, at which point you have two options. First, you can pull it down so it completely clears the book, then turn the page. This is what I do and works ok if a bit awkwardly with big hardcover books. I don't see it working with paperbacks without the book closing and losing your page. For those books, I think you keep the book holder upright and pull it out about an inch so the book can't shut, then you sort of fold the page you're turning up at the bottom to clear the page holder. Both options are easier than my confusing description, and probably as easy as it gets. But it's still a bit messy. I spent a lot of time on my one slight criticism, but as I said I think all similar products have that. Overall it's a great product. ... show more

  • So cute!
I got this for my sister for her birthday and she absolutely loves it! It’s so cute and will hold the book perfectly. It is super light and does exactly what it needs to do.

  • Bought for my mom and she LOVES it
My mom is an avid reader; however, she also has lots of problems with arthritis in her hands and wrists and would complain about how holding the books for so long made the pain worse. I found the book seat searching for possible solutions for her and gifted it as part of her birthday present this year. When I called her the day after, she was over the moon excited for how well it worked holding her book and for how much better her hands and wrists felt. She also mentioned her shoulders felt better, too, which surprised her b/c she hadn't related her shoulder pain to reading. She's a happier reader, and I'm happier daughter. Thank you! ... show more

  • Smaller than expected
Item was smaller than I expected; should have read the specs. It is very useful holding the book but I find it tedious to move the Plexiglas holder every time I turn the page. Other than that, it is what I wanted; a hands free book holder.

  • Great for reading while sitting, not so much for laying down
I love to lay in my bed with a great book and read at the end of the day. This would be perfect if the base wasn’t so bulky. Other than that, I have no complaints. Turning pages are easy and it’s the best thing I’ve found so far.

  • Solid product
Great product to put on a table or counter. I haven’t tried placing it on my lap as that’s not how I read. It’s much better than bending your neck down to read and better than my preferred position: reading with my arms on my knees and the book on the bed. Really satisfied with this purchase!

  • Easy to use book rest
I like the color, texture and style of this bookrest. The bar holding book in place is best for paperback or lightweight books. I use to lean my Ipad mini or cell phone while I am sitting at the table. I am cautious not to soil the fabric. Haven't tried to wash
