Customers are mixed about the quality of the cooling pad. Some mention that it keeps the temperature steady, and is a great product for a Macbook Pro. However, others say that the fans aren't very strong, and cooling just 1-2 degrees isn' t going to do the trick.

132 customers mention81 positive51 negative

Customers are mixed about the noise of the electronic device cooling pad. Some mention that the fans are extremely quiet, while others say that they can hear them running. Some customers also mention that auto mode favors silence over functionality, and it would slow down the fan speed quite.

43 customers mention19 positive24 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the fan speed of the electronic device cooling pad. Some mention that it has temp monitoring mode, fan speed selection, and auto modes. The dual fans run at a very high RPM without producing very much air volume. They say that it automatically increases speed sometimes. However, other customers say that when this would happen, the fan would run at reduced speed, but would make a buzzing. They also say that the fans could be a little faster to produce more airflow.

"...1. The temperature readout is a joke, so this thing never speeds up on its own...." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the usb ports of the electronic device cooling pad. They mention that the support for connectors broke on both ports, the USB ports in the back aren't secured very well to the frame, and the piece inside the USB port fell out.

This is certainly one of the best investments that I have ever made regarding the care of my LAN nodes. I was skeptical after reading the OEM ad for the product. However, I have entrusted the welfare of a LOT of my IT related equipment to the quality cooling care of ThermalTake for a long while and have yet to be disappointed. This product is certainly no exception!!This ThermalTake MASSIVE (TM) laptop cooling pad exceeds my EVERY expectation! Interestingly, the dual fans run at a very high RPM without producing very much air volume, CFM. However, the combination of the aluminum surface and the large air ventilation footprint are EXTREMELY effective at pulling out the heat and sending in the KOOL.The control console offers both automatic and manual options for controlling the base temp. and, thus, the fan RPM. I set the base temp. and then select the auto setting. The pad thermally monitors the base temp and runs through the four turbo fan settings as needed in order to maintain the optimum temp. that I locked into the config panel.I set the base at 80 and it stays within 2 degrees either side of that temp. This marvelous ThermalTake MASSIVE (TM) cooling pad immediately went to work on lowering the operating temp of my laptop that is situated atop the cooling pad. My laptop houses a Gen. 11, i7 CPU that typically operates at between 120 and 150 Fahrenheit. The exhaust air from my Dell PC normally fluctuates from 112 up to 117, as the normative operating temp. Within minutes of activating this cooling pad, it effectively reduced the exhaust temp by 30 degrees, down to 85!!! AMAZING!! My PC's fan doesn't even cycle at all!No matter at what setting the turbo is running, I CAN NOT HEAR THE FANS over the basic normative room ambiance in my home.The ThermalTake MASSIVE (TM) cooling pad features two USB ports. One to provide power to the pad and the other is an aux. Out, for running I/O peripherals. Hence, I didn't loose any valuable USB ports.There are two retractable supports on the rear of the pad that have two settings. These avail me three options from flat to a 2" lift in the rear for angling the cooling pad. Without employing the rear supports the cooling pad is 1" high in the front and 1.75" in the rear. With the rear supports extended, the cooling pad raises up to a 3.75" height in the rear.The aluminum top surface is VERY slippery. There are 4 pegs that protrude up through the aluminum surface. Two positioned forward and two near the back of the aluminum surface. They are spring tensioned so that they can be manipulated up and down, yet provide resistance in order to prevent the laptop from sliding. All four also adjust laterally from left to right. These are supposed to engage the bottom of the laptop in order to secure it. In my case, they do very little in the way of accomplishing that. Hence, I keep the pad surface level and have employed a thin textured rubber film, that adheres to the aluminum surface, all around the aluminum perimeter as well as down its center. This accomplishes much toward stabilizing my laptop upon the cooling pad.The ThermalTake MASSIVE (TM) is a VERY well engineered device that is manufactured with high quality materials.

I can't yet speak for the longevity of this product, but it works quite well. I've been using my laptop as essentially a desktop for a while (so I don't use this in my lap), and have had to throttle it to keep the fan from constantly ramping up to jet aircraft mode.

With this thing I've turned off the throttling. This keeps idle temperatures about 8c lower, and it makes it difficult to get the CPU hot enough for the fan to ramp all the way up.

It seems to just make the internal cooling more efficient.

The cons:
1. The temperature readout is a joke, so this thing never speeds up on its own. I've left it on "auto" which seems to keep it running on the lowest speed (which is plenty for me). It's possible the temperature readout would work better on laptops with aluminum cases. But for me it just reads 24c all the time.
2. The vibrations are greater than I'd like to see, but they're in line with desktop computer fans. I wouldn't worry about spinny hard disks. But if you actually used your laptop keyboard this might be annoying.
3. There's no actual manual. You're left to guess about how to control it...

EDIT: I had to revise my review from 5 to 1 stars - within a month, one of the plastic arms that hold up the stand snapped and made this useless. I wasn't putting pressure on it, wasn't doing anything unusual, just simply moved the arms to a higher position and it snapped. I'd noticed when I received it that it had a "line" on that arm and that is where it broke. Very disappointed.

My old Alienware M17x is huge, old, and runs VERY hot. In fact, it has been frequently giving me blue screens of death as it crashes and shuts down from overheating. Simply browsing the internet keeps the fans blowing hard (and I've cleaned it out several times) and doing something like video viewing or editing cranks up the fans to jet engine sound level.

So I wasn't expecting miracles with the Massive A21 cooling pan, but it comes pretty close. While I'd thought I'd prefer a dial to adjust the fan speed rather than normal and high, the single large fan is quiet enough I just keep it on high. The controls are simple - a small on/off switch on the back side of the panel, and a button that gives you normal and high speeds. But honestly, that's all I need. This pad is all about simple. I didn't get the one with the thermal sensors because that's just one more thing to go wrong - I can push the button for normal and high with better discretion than some sensors. Plugs into a laptop USB port. It does not have a USB port on it, so you do lose a USB port on your laptop, but I have 4 on mine and I never need more than two at a time anyway.

Since I've started using this pad, my notebook fans stay quiet, and the bottom of the laptop stays cool. The bottom of this laptop hasn't been cool while running for two years! No more crashes, and very quiet again. For the money, well, cheaper than the new notebook I thought I was going to have to purchase due to the overheating of this one.

Really great, doesn't make to much noise and works well for gaming too! Now I can play games without burning my fingers because my laptop was getting way too hot. It's really light too and adjustable! I really love it!

Es un gran producto, lo que deben de fijar es colocar barra al frente para sostener los equipos en la base cuando esta inclinada, ya que por el acabado del producto en la placa de aluminio, en mi caso con la MacBook Pro 13" se resbala.
Con respecto a los ventiladores, el nivel de ruido que generan es casi mínimo y para el objetivo principal el enfriamiento cumple con lo necesario, baja la temperatura en la superficie de 35º C a 25º a 28º C, para una refrigeración extra para tu laptop es genial y si es una MacBook creo que es muy necesario.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good cooling pad for over-heating laptops
Reviewed in Canada on March 16, 2019
I have an 8 year old HP ENVY17 laptop. At the time, the GPU and memory were top of the line; but the knock was that it ran hot -- and it did and does. Of late it was getting to the point where it BIOS shut the laptop down a couple of times to protect it from overheating (100 degrees C on all four cores). I have always used a targus laptop cooling pad; but it was not cutting the mustard. So I selected the Thermaltake A22 and the difference is just short of amazing. The fans are orders of effect better at moving air, just as quiet (or noisey depending on your sensitivity to such), the aluminum seems to make a huge difference is cooling the computer. I seldom gush over products -- but this is worth the price and I hope it will extend the life of your laptop in the way I trust it wll extend mine.
