The Twelve South Curve is built from a single aluminum piece and takes its name from the stylish curved foot. Perforated anti-slip silicone pads line each arm to keep your MacBook firmly in place, and a hook design adds an extra level of protection.

Don't worry about overheating; the Twelve South Curve only covers 30 percent of your MacBook base, allowing plenty of open-air cooling to take place. As it's made from a single aluminum piece, the Twelve South Curve is also exceptionally sturdy.

It raises your MacBook six inches off the desk and is available in two colors: matte black or white. Sadly, neither of these colors match the aluminum design of a MacBook, but at least they still look good.

The Nulaxy C1 laptop stand uses a Z-type hinge to offer adjustable heights and angles. Simply raise or lower the laptop from 3.15 inches to 10 inches above the worktop. The sturdy hinges keep your laptop firmly in place, supporting an impressive 44 pounds of weight.

Although the Nulaxy C1 doesn't disassemble for easy storage and transport, you can easily flatten it to the lowest height, making it easy to slip into a backpack.

The large flat base for your laptop to sit on uses rubber pads and hooks to keep it in place no matter what angle you use. Unfortunately, there aren't any air vents to keep your laptop cool, but the aluminum design acts as a heat sink to avoid overheating.

Built from 5mm premium alloy, the Orionstar M5 can hold 10–15.6-inch laptops weighing up to 8.8 pounds. This stand uses an open-air design to keep your MacBook cool. It raises a laptop six inches off the desk, which is a good height for avoiding neck and back pain when working on a laptop.

A cable outlet in the back of the stand lets you feed your charging cable up to the laptop, with rubberized edges to avoid damage over prolonged use. The solid laptop base also features four rubber feet and two hooks to keep your laptop in place, although some reviews mention problems with the rubber falling off.

Due to the platform base's style, Rain Design says this stand is only compatible with laptops up to 10.4 inches in depth rather than measuring it by screen size.

This also means you can disassemble the stand if you ever need to flatten it for storage.Unfortunately, there's not quite enough space to store a keyboard beneath this stand because of the swiveling pillar.The solid laptop base also doesn't offer much airflow. But it does work as a heat sink by draining excess heat away from your MacBook. Two rubber pads also keep your MacBook in place on the stand, with a front stop protecting it from sliding it onto the desk.The Lamicall is available in Silver or Gray, with both colors coming pretty close to standard MacBook designs.

The Macally ASTAND is constructed from several aluminum pieces and features two braces across the base and back of the stand. It raises your MacBook six inches off the desk for better ergonomics and offers a space beneath the laptop to store an external keyboard.

It isn't quite as sleek as other MacBook stands because the seams between each metal section are pronounced. However, it is exceptionally light and offers great airflow for keeping your MacBook cool.

The Macally ASTAND comes in silver or space gray. The silver looks like a good match for most MacBooks, but the Space Gray appears slightly darker than the matching MacBook design. There are rubber pads and hooks to keep your MacBook from slipping around.

The Nulaxy C3 uses a popular laptop stand design to raise your laptop six inches above the desk. While this won't be the perfect height for all users, it's suitable for most people and should help alleviate back and neck pain.

Available in different colors, including silver, space gray, or black, you can style your Nulaxy C3 stand after your MacBook. However, the Space Gray color doesn't look like a perfect match, as it appears to be tinged with blue.

An open-air design offers natural ventilation to keep your MacBook cool while you're using it. And when you're done, you can disassemble the Nulaxy C3 stand into three separate pieces for compact storage or transportation.
