Is it stable when writing? Do you have to support the board?

It's pretty stable. I can write at the top and it shakes a bit, but not so much that I have to support it with my other hand.

It is surprisingly sturdy and balanced, if it is an ink jet it might wobble when it is printing. It wouldn't fall over. I have a 3 year old visitor that uses it as a personal table and she hasn't had any issues with tipping. the base is really solid. I put a round placemat on it and if you put a printer on it, you might want to put one on it too.

It's OK if you write slower and more deliberately. liek the rest on here said, some lines can disappear. it works OK if you don't scribble fast

I have not used for writing. However I would say yes . This is a quality item .. Sturdy and looks like it does online.

Mine keeps the laptop in place and there is no give to it as you type. It's quite stable.

I have. Yes, it worked ok ... I found I tended to move slowly on it because it's a pretty bouncy movement for typing, but at least you're moving a bit. I tended to use it when I was reading.

Yes...it is very stable. I too have been known to hit the keyboard a tad to hard and have never had a problem with it.

That's what my wall is. It isn't smooth really but it's not rough. It's slightly bumpy if that is any better at explaining. And well when you write on it wont have a smooth like paper line. But it's doable. My kids used it until it didn't stick to the wall anymore.

Matt, The unit itself is very stable. The keyboard doesn't shift in relation to the iPad and the iPad maintains the angle you choose. But I hate typing on my lap, because the iPad & keyboard is much smaller than a laptop. I had the exact situation Saturday and the unit moved because my legs don't lend themselves to stability. I can't keep my thighs together (good thing I'm not a woman!). My solution is to put my briefcase or a large folder/tablet on my lap to provide a more stable surface. But the shifting is not the fault of the Airbender. In fact, I'm finding is very stable in almost every configuration. Matt, The unit itself is very stable.

Very stable. Ours hangs from the bed headboard and it doesn't really bounce at all when you tap. It is probably most resistant to movement when you have it in a bind. For example, if you crane the neck to where it is under the most tension on one side/compression on the other, it doesn't move as much as if you had the neck perfectly straight. This is true for most things in general though, so I suppose it depends on what orientation you are looking for. That said, it's minimal bounce is perfectly acceptable in any position as a means to swipe and tap around the iPad; I probably wouldn't want to write a novel on it like that though. Very stable.

I've been doing a lot or writing with this, and no sign of wobble yet. I alternate (depending on what I'm doing - drafting type project, or just writing) between an upright use, and a more angled (and harder on the "nib") use, and it still is nice and solid.

It's heavy. It might hold for a while. The thing is the surface of the board is not very smooth that makes erasing the writing is not that easy.

Yes. Maybe a medium sized one... But if you write really hard or fast it could knock the whole thing over if you don't hold on to the easel as well as the board... I would use it more for display purposes.

You could mount it if you needed to, but you lose one whole side of the board. The stand is very sturdy and I like the fact that you can flip the board to get more writing space without having to erase.

Yes it is stable, however I would use a small fan to ensure longer life of the device.

Ours is pretty stable. Some bounce, but not a lot. We use it in the kitchen for recipe display, mostly, so there's more swipe than tap, and we have it mounted about 15 degrees off vertical in landscape orientation. I don't know about extended keyboard entry, although I can see how lots of taps might amplify the bounce. Hope that helps!

Feels like painted partical board. It's pretty sturdy and stable. No complaints.
