I developed some serious problems with my neck and quickly realized I needed to raise my book in order to read. Although I was initially hesitant about purchasing this, I could not be any more pleased. First, I like the size of it. It is not bulky and has a loop built in, so I can store it on the doorknob behind the bedroom door. Secondly, the color (olive) is very pleasing. But MOST of all, it holds my books at an excellent angle which I can adjust by shifting the inner pellets around. Paperbacks stay open and the acrylic band at the bottom will keep my place. Turning the page is easy once you get the hang of it. It works with all book sizes. When reading in bed, I do place a small pillow under it sometimes, just to raise the height, but this would not be necessary for everyone.The Book Seat is very portable and I use it in all rooms of the house. It would be great to use on trips. I have used it with my iPad but do prefer the Amazon portable stand for that. Using the iPad in the vertical position is preferable when using the bookseat but not impossible horizontally. It would be ideal for use with a Kindle.Almost hands-free reading. No aching arms. No strain on the neck. I'm purchasing another one for my elderly mother.

I just got this book pillow as a prep for knee surgery and reading in bed. This pillow supports either a book or my iPad with an acrylic bar that shifts into place to hold a book open or prop the iPad up. I appreciate the fact this book pillow sits easily in my lap or on my bed and doesn’t tip over when in use. It’s very lightweight to carry and looks easy to clean as well.

This is a great item for those who like to read in bed because it supports your book very well. I use it for my IPad too, but it’s a little clumsy with that. Great for books!

Whatever you're worrying about, forget it. I think I read every review on this item and thought, well, I'll just TRY it, I can always return it...No! This baby is stayin with me!The fabric is a soft moleskin or faux suede.Yes, it holds up a kindle.Yes, it holds up thick books too.Ive used it on 700 page hard back books; it holds them just fine.You'll notice a plastic "lip" at the front that can be adjusted to fit just about any width book (maybe not oversized huge text books or coffee table books but you get the idea) buy pulling the toggle. By the way, you don't need to lift your book to turn a page, just flip the plastic lip down and turn .OillaTo Weight or not to Weight:Some people suggested throwing a handful of marbles into the stuffing to weigh the pillow down for heavier books and I fully expected to have to do this. But in the end it doesn't need it. I use it on my lap, hugging it like a pillow but even if I leave it standing (with book or kindle) on the couch or table it holds upright just fine. So it's your call. Yes, the tag says DO NOT OPEN ON FEAR OF DEATH (or something like that) but seriously, unless you're going to inhale the beads, it's really a non issue.Would I buy it again?Yes, I would and I HAVE.After using it for a couple of hours I went back on Amazon and bought one for my daughter (who kept stealing mine) and my sister (who likes to read in bed).LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!

Comfortable holder for eReaders (Kindle, Nook…) but not stable enough to hold iPad without wanting to tip over backwards. Also, plexiglass holder on bottom interferes with iPad’s bottom button.

This book seat delivers on its promise. It is very well made and really does enhance your reading experience. It has helped me with neck strain. The one thing I would improve on is the plexiglass holder at the bottom that secures and keeps your book in place. I'm a fast reader so I have to turn the page frequently. Loosening the holder each time then cinching it back is a bit annoying. Perhaps the manufacturer will tinker with the design and create a tension holder instead. Other than that, I am quite happy with this product.
