My one and only complaint so far, and not about the stand itself, is that this is one pricey product. I went to their website and most of their other products are on the high end and priced high in accordance. It is true that you get what you pay for, and the quality is very good. However, because of the high price, I waffled for several weeks before deciding this was the best one. I'd also like to get their stands, but it was hard to justify the price and ended up getting stands made by other companies for my other devices (Spindo, and Satechi). You'd think that there would be a package discount of some sort, or ways to reduce the cost, but I didn't see anything on their website. Overall, I spend around 200 bucks to trick out my desk, and this stand alone took nearly 40% of my budget. I just got this stand on Saturday (4/23/2016) and it is now Monday (4/25/2016). I hope this stand will still be in good condition 10 years from now considering what I paid.
Regardless, I am glad that I paid a bit extra for a very high quality stand. I would highly recommend this stand to other Mac users. In the end, I bought this stand after weeks of looking around, and I think it will be worth spending the extra $20 bucks or so to get it.
I have my 2011 MBP placed on the stand by my monitor. I'm able to have a comfortable dual monitor setup as the height is adjustable on this stand, which makes lining up the monitors easy.
Great for graphic designers, coders, etc that need to have the extra screen real estate. I watch a lot of tutorials related to coding and design, and having the tutorial play on my MBP screen while I follow along on my external monitor is great for my workflow.
Since this lifts the MBP off the surface, it really helps with the heat issues that these laptops have. I even have a small desk fan pushing cold air under the laptop.
Definitely not comfortable to type on the laptop's keyboard while on this stand. The upside down "V" design makes for a shaky experience when resting your palms on the MBP. Would highly recommend pairing your mac with an external bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
Though I use an external keyboard, typing on the built in keyboard while the computer is on the stand isn't a problem at all, though not ideal height wise. The MBP is rock solid with no slipping and only the tiniest bit of downward deflection if you press firmly on it. The foot matches my Thunderbolt Display perfectly with the exception that it has the Twelve South logo on it. The stand can be moved around on the desk fairly easily but I would not say overly so by any means. It stays put unless you apply sufficient force. Before opening the box I felt the price was a bit steep but went for it because I wanted the adjustability. But it does in fact feel like a $70 stand and after using it I have no issue with the price. Well made, high quality stand.
For those who have commented that the stand is wobbly, note that the stand is designed to be a riser to elevate the MacBook level with an external display/dual monitors or eye level and used with an external keyboard/mouse. It is not meant to be typed on regularly. I get some vibration/wobble when I type on my MacBook while on the stand. I did, however, found a little “hack” to reduce the vibration/wobbliness while typing – I flipped it over so the arms act as the base and base act as the arm. The base also has non-slip grips, although minimal, that keep my MacBook from slipping. I may purchase additional non-slip grip pads to add to the base to further ensure it from any slippage.
The one thing I wasn’t too happy about was the price, but overall, I am happy with the HiRise stand from Twelve South.

It is definitely worth the price because the built quality is sturdy. The material is strong. I do like the leveller? You can adjust the height of your monitor using the leveller and placing them in different height slot.
The packaging was great. Felt very premium. The high dense foam definitely protected it from dents and scratches during transportation.
It is quite big so measure your desk or space. For me it’s fine as I do work electronically and don’t need much space for textbooks and other sorts of documents.

After using the stand for a couple of weeks with my Macbook Pro, I've noticed that the actual stand is not level and that it shifts from side to side. Even after tightening the screw. Therefore, I see my screen at an angle.
Lately, I also find that Macbook Pro slides off the stand itself. I've been in important meetings where my computer literally crashes down.
