The 15 Best Wooden Laptop Stands

If you’re on the hunt for a great laptop stand, perhaps you should first consider what a wooden laptop stand can accomplish for you. First, there’s the aesthetics. With the possible exception of one-piece aluminum laptop stands, laptop stands made out of wood, whether bamboo, pine, oak, or even composite material, tend to outclass their metal compatriots in the aesthetics department. There’s just something beautiful, minimalist, and subtle about the fine grain of natural wood. This is especially true if you’re trying to match your laptop stand with your office desk.

Secondly, whether horizontal or vertical, wooden laptop stands tend to stand the test of time a little bit better than height adjustable laptop stands that have many moving parts. Those moving parts are prone to breaking a bit more than a solid piece of wood with perhaps a simple angle adjustment mechanism. Another advantage of a wooden laptop stand is that they can bear a bit more weight than metal stands in most cases. And while most laptops are fairly light, wooden stands tend to flex less and stay more rigid than their aluminum counterparts. And of course, just like laptop stands made from different materials, the wooden variety is just as portable. So are you ready to be introduced to the best wooden laptop stands currently available? Let’s have a look at them.

1. WishACC Bamboo Adjustable Laptop Stand

This wonderful and capable laptop stand is made from high-quality bamboo and has a double-ventilated surface area to keep your laptop running as cool as possible. This is particularly useful for non-mac laptops. Five different adjustable angles by way of sturdy metal in a wooden groove mechanism will ensure that no matter what size laptop you place on this stand, there won’t be any wobble. From 20° to 48°, the five viewing angles provide plenty of flexibility for your personal preference, which is a nice touch. So no matter whether you’re using an external keyboard or not, you’ll always have the right angle for comfortable typing with this wooden laptop stand. And to top it all off, this bamboo laptop stand features a nice grain and thin profile, so it doesn’t look too bulky on your modern office desk, no matter whether it’s a sit or standing desk. 

2. Samdi Wooden Laptop Stand

While it’s only the second item on this list of wooden laptop stands, I think it’s safe to say that this is the best-looking wood laptop stand there is. Available in either a birch or Walnut finish, this gorgeous laptop stand uses the natural curvature that only wood grain can accomplish to provide a sleek, minimalist, and sturdy frame for your laptop.

But what truly makes this laptop stand a cut above the competitors in the wooden laptop stand market is all the thoughtful design touches that result in a multitude of features. First is the thoughtfully carved strip-shaped holes in the stand’s surface to create a better cooling experience. Next, we have the nicely shaped lip that holds the laptop in place along with a thoughtfully carved out notch to allow for easy access to your laptop lid. The carved out hole in the stand’s neck is also a nice way to provide some manner of rudimentary cable management. And finally is the ability to quickly store your external keyboard on top of the foot of the stand, allowing you to free up more desktop space.

3. Ergonofis Laptop Stand

Simple, strong, and with striking angular lines, this perfectly crafted wooden laptop stand made in Montreal, Canada, is more a work of art than a laptop stand. But if you don’t mind having a work of art on your desk, then this wooden laptop stand available in walnut, birch, and maple will elevate any workspace. Each of these laptop stands from Ergonofis features soft padding made of natural cork to allow smooth movements or adjustments on top of your work surface while saving it from unnecessary scratches or dents. And of course, because of the hollow storage area beneath, you’ll be able to tuck your external keyboard and accessories underneath neatly. They make great wood in Canada eh?

4. Layture – Real Wood Notebook Riser Stand

This unique bamboo laptop stand features an aluminum inlay into the surface to provide efficient ventilated cooling across nearly the entire width of your laptop.

The natural bamboo finish provides an airy look and feel, while the hole carved in the rear provides simple cable management.

5. EqualPeaks – Paramount Eco Wood Laptop Stand + Phone holder

Every time I include a product sold on Etsy in any buying guide, I get a little burned.

This premium wooden laptop stand is made from birch plywood and would make a nice stand for anyone that owns a Macbook or Macbook pro.

Good work on the brand name there. Make it as ridiculously unpronounceable as possible and call it a day. I suppose it’s a good thing this company knows how to make a good wooden laptop stand. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have given them a second look. In any case, this highly versatile laptop desk is something that is decidedly not minimalist. But what it may lack in aesthetically coating your eyes in waves of visual pleasure, it makes up for in utility. Made from bamboo, this multi-use stand can be used as a laptop desk and as a TV dinner tray, serving desk, or even a vertical laptop riser for office workers that prefer to stand at their desks.

It’s stunning. Available in walnut or maple finish, this wooden laptop stand from Grovemade is the ultimate expression of woodworking taken to create an object that screams to sit atop a modern and fashionable desk surface.

Yes, it will also suit other laptops, but this is a perfect solution if you run with a Macbook.

This is a pretty simple stand without many frills, but what you get is a stylish laptop stand that will feel right at home if you’re aiming for a minimalist aesthetic. Modern, stylish, sturdy, and ergonomically tilted. What more could you want from a beautiful wooden laptop stand. I suppose the very cheap price is also a big upside.

11. Oakywood Wooden Laptop Stand

Here’s another amazing wooden laptop stand that we can safely say is perhaps the best-looking laptop stand in the world. Well, maybe it’s tied with the Grovemade stand I featured in this list earlier.

Available in two solid wood finishes, walnut, and oak, this stand will raise your laptop about six inches off the ground and has been engineered to provide the most ideally ergonomic angle for typing and viewing. Slide your external mouse and keyboard underneath the stand, and you’ve got one neat desktop workspace.

12. iWoodStar Elevated Wooden Laptop Riser

Here’s another gorgeously crafted laptop stand made out of polished and lacquered bamboo that can hold laptops between 11-17 inches in size. Rising 5 inches off your desk at a 25-degree angle, the sloped and smooth slopes of this hand-crafted stand perfects a minimalistic look. Because of the unique wooden pattern of Bamboo, each stand is unique. No two are alike!

13. SAMDI Heighten Wood Notebook Stand

The design of this wooden laptop stand from SAMDI may be the most subtle and quietly awesome design I’ve seen so far. With a gentle S-curve construction, this lightweight laptop stand is available in white birch and black walnut. With its uncomplicated design with air slots on the surface to promote laptop cooling, this stand can work both for laptops, iPads, and other tablets. The 20-degree angle is a little less aggressive than other laptop stands but still confers plenty of ergonomic advantages. And finally, the very nature of its design makes it almost appear as if though your laptop is floating on air.

14. ErgoTree – Wood Laptop Stand

As the legend goes, this laptop stand was born in a coffee shop. Well, at least the idea for it did. Hunched over his laptop, creator Kyle noticed that practically everyone was doing the same. So why not create an easy to take with you and fold multi-functional laptop stand. The result is the ErgoTree laptop stand, which will bring your laptop to the perfect eye-level height. Made from bamboo harvested from Bend, Oregon, this laptop stand also features rare-earth strong magnets that allow the stand to lock itself together for easy transport and storage.

15. WooderfulShop – Wooden Laptop Stand

Calling this wooden laptop stand something other than minimalist would be a disservice to the very essence of that word. But let’s not pretend that this stand is full of features. It’s not. But what it may miss in the features department it more than makes up for in its portability. Available in two options, the classic design, that doesn’t feature cut-outs, and a “fresh air” stand with large cut-outs for added air cooling, this beautiful oak wood stand for laptops or tablets is made by hand and uses a gorgeous wax and oil finish to complete the look. Anti-slip stickers on the feet are included, and because it’s essentially two movable pieces of wood, it can fit a laptop of any size. But obviously, the best aspect of this wooden laptop stand is that it’s insanely portable.
