  • 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

  • It works laying in bed!
Just got it and it works! I can lay in bed on my side and it holds a hardback book open. Because it is a bean bag one can even kind of angle the book. The little plastic plate keeps the pages open, but it is still easy to turn the page behind it.

  • Very handy Very handy
Works perfectly! Light weight, soft, well made, nice color, and comfortable. It’s very easy to use and adjustable for multiple size books. It also works well with my cell phone. It has a very well thought out design. It could also double as a travel pillow. It is a little pricey (the reason I took one star off), but worth it for me since I read all the time. If it was a little cheaper, I’d buy a bunch of them as Christmas gifts. I have a giant family though so not in my gift budget unfortunately. ... show more

  • Great book holder but loses density
My family got me a red one of these a couple years back, and finally I have something that holds the pages open while I read, or holds my Kindle tightly enough that it doesn't fall out. My only complaint is that whatever it's stuffed with has now packed down or smooshed inside, so I have to constantly shove it into just the right position for it to remain upright, otherwise, it's floppy and falls over. I'm hoping I can somehow open it up and stuff it more full to avoid that problem. Even so, I like it well enough that I ordered this teal one for a friend. ... show more

  • Best book holder ever!
I absolutely love this! I use it to read with every book and I take it with me everywhere I travel! Its super comfy to hold. Also my hands dont get tired from holding the book because I can just flip the pages and it holds it in place. Whoever invented this is a total genius!
