Has anyone tried it with a 17" laptop?

This item is a waste of money!!! Its really cheapley constructed, uncomfortable and its not made for women with any size chest. Regret buying this crap!!!

I have used it extensively with an HP EliteBook 8560w which is a large heavy beast, especially when I attach the extra external battery under this laptop! This laptop only has a 15.6" display, but I find it to be a bit cumbersome in the Connect-A-Desk, due the laptop's size and weight, but also due to the screen size. I would think that a 17" display may be even more awkward. But, having said all that, there are very few other choices out there for a "mobile" carrying platform. In general, the Connect-A-Desk works reasonably well.

I have a 17.3" and it works fine, you just have have adjust the straps a bit differently than on a 15" which I also use.

Leslie raises a good point, but has she found any other alternative solutions that are better? I have not found anything else. (FYI: if you have a larger waist which sticks out a bit, using the Connect-A-Desk can be somewhat awkward for typing!)

yes it will...it will not be a perfect fit but it works due to the small leg/ holders at the bottom of the cooling pad. My laptop is also 17.3 and it works just fine. I am very happy with this purchase.

No,designed for nothing above 14 inch. There are other choices out there for 20 inch. It would be highly unstable for that large of a laptop.

My 13 inch Asus Zenbook Prime was too small for that bag, so I have a feeling 17 inch would fit in perfectly. If not, you can always return it ya know :)

I had to borrow my wifes 17" laptop on a few occasions (I prefer smaller 12-15" laptops) and it fit fine. A little tight maybe, but not noticeably - I never had to struggle to get it to fit or anything.

Yes it does. I have a 17 inch laptop. It is a really good bag. Recommended.

I have a 15 inch laptop and it fits perfect. A 17inch would hang over the sides, but I think it would still work. I love this thing.

I've only used it with a 15" laptop, but I'd say yes as I've seen some Djs use it for their equipment that is even larger than a laptop. Unless some new fangled, unheard of before laptop stand technology debuted in the last 6 months, this is hands down, the best balance of portability, set-up ease, secure latches, flexible heights and angles for your laptop.

Yes this is universal stand with a usb cable that goes to a 4 port unpowered usb 2.0 hub that is attached double sided tape to the back of the stand Even though I have a 16" laptop, I don't see any reason why it would work with a 17" laptop. I like the stand because it's made of durable steel construction, has a few positive locking tilt positions and holder for paper document that you may be reading while typing into your laptop. The paper holder covers the keyboard so you will need a usb keyboard and mouse to use this product.

I actually bought this as a present for a friend and her laptop was a 15 inch! I think it would work for a 17 inch as well but I didn't see it open.

So far I have not had any issues. I love it, it works great for me. I have a 17 in laptop and my laptop site perfectly on it. It also has the mouse pad which works great and is very sturdy.

The unit is 14 inches wide. It works great for my 15.6 inch laptop an I would assume it would work well for a 17 inch. It has two fans to help circulate the air.

I wouldnt suggest getting a 17in for a 15in laptop especially a mac because those are slimmer than the typical laptop.

I have two Laptops, one a Think Pad the other a Lenovo, both 13" across. Both fit on the 17 inch without a problem, leaving about 2 1/4 inches free space on both sides. If I had purchased the 15 inch they would have fit without any overhang. I actually like the extra space on the sides however, it does require more desk top space.

I don't have a 17.3 laptop but. It would be worth a try. Great cooling system

I have a rather large size laptop and it fits well. My laptop measures 16 1/4 " side to side. Not sure if they measure diagonally to get to the 17.3". Hope this helps

Hi, the laptop will fit tight but it will. I tried with my 17' and it fit perfect. I would go for it.
