KLIM Wind

I'm a pretty serious gamer, but because of my housing situation, I don't have space for a desktop rig. Keeping a 17" laptop cool when I'm raiding in Final Fantasy XIV can be a challenge, especially since I live in a place that regularly hits triple-digits Farenheit in the summer. I've typically gone through cooling pads a couple times a year because they just don't last...until I discovered KLIM.I purchased this cooling pad 2 years ago, and it's still working just fine. The airflow is steady, constant, and quiet; the only maintenance I've had to do is to occasionally vacuum the dust and cat hair out of the inside. It is well-build and well-balanced enough that I have no trouble with a 17" gaming laptop, or even the new 18" I just bought. I'm very impressed with the quality of this product, and when I set up the new gaming laptop for my wife, I'll definitely pick up one of these for her.

So I recently purchased a new legion pro five laptop. While this laptop doesn’t get super hot, it definitely gets warm and to definitely stand a little bit of airflow around it if you want to keep it at optimum temperature. I read some of the positive and negative reviews on this unit and tried it out for myself.As far as airflow and sound level goes, it works good it is independent controls on the back with a total of four fans each switch controls two of the fans one switch controls the two on the left the other the two on the right, turn it all the way one way you feel an audible click that powers them down or you turn them all the way the other direction, and they are at full power. Even at full power. These are very loud. Yes you can hear them but if you’re doing anything else at all even typing on the keyboard you can’t hear them anymore. While they are not very loud, they do move a fair amount of air and with my laptop sitting on top of it it keeps it much much coolerThe lighting on this unit is not overly bright. However, I’m not worried about the lights that much as once the laptop is sitting on top of it you can’t really see them in a completely dark room. It does give a slight ambience from below, but with even a monitor on You can’t really see them anymore. So if you’re worried about the lights being to Brat, don’t worry you’re not going to notice them.The USB cable has a nice links. It doesn’t seem to draw very much power. I think this is a great bang for the buck. It works well with my Lenovo legion however, it might not work as well with some laptops as it all depends on how your air flow is designed around your computer, but I would definitely recommend

-this item is a HUGE help! I run 3D design software programs and this has made a HUGE difference! I had already bought flip out legs for my device (you would think the makers of gaming laptops would design the bottoms better- but it probably because they want you to HAVE to buy another! While I have a raised hollow base on the bottom of the laptop, it still does not have anywhere for the hot air to escape) While the legs propping it up is a big help, it still feels like a mini heater when I am running the software for hours at a time. I use a laptop stand, so it is not on my lap.Finding a cooler that was reasonably priced AND fit my laptop has been insane! This item is not an exact fit, per se, BUT it gets the job done! I have about 1/4" overhang on each side, past the widest areas of the cooler (top and bottom corners). I cannot use the flip up guards on the unit, as I am already hanging over the back of the unit by 2 1/2-3 inches. My desk has adjustable tilt and i keep it adjusted for typing purposes. I have the unit legs extended, and use the legs I added to my laptop to keep it on top of the device (in case it were to try and slide).Quality: Definitley feels flimsier than I expected, but I also didn't pay $60 for this- so that is probably to be expected.Lights: Fan lights are not as bright as the all the advertising images (of ALL the coolers that light up) would seem. My lap top totally cover the unit, so it is even more subdued.Noise: While not silent, I feel it is pretty quiet (not that I have used one of these before). My laptop makes more noise than this when I run my 3D software!What I don't like:location of fan switches and USB ports are in an awkward position. Unless your device is SMALLER than this unit (which is probably 15" laptop or below) it is very difficult to reach and turn fans on and off, as the controls are located in the center middle. The front guards seem really flimsy if they are needed. I feel like they could make the legs adjustable too.Other than that is lightweight and doing the job I need it to! Very little heat emanating from the sides of my device!

(Please ignore my mess of a basement in pics) Will update later down the road, but for the moment I am more than satisfied!The short of it: great for the price. I've only used the Notepal X3 for the past few years, and this is just as cool as the Notepal's single fan, and obvs more dispersed with four fans. Can't turn the lights off, but they're about as bright as my keyboard backlights. Very nice cool white. There's a USB port on the back so you're not out a plug, and two dials for the top and bottom set of fans. The pegs to hold your laptop in place are kinda sharp, as others have mentioned, but the material of the fan and the rubber footies on the bottom of my laptop keep it in place, so I'm not worried about it sliding if I don't use them. Running nothing but Discord and YouTube, all four cores are averaging about 30-32° C. Comfortable for your lap or a lap desk, and laying it flat doesn't jostle or rattle the fans. Only packaged in a box and a single sleeve of bubble wrap, but I haven't seen anyone else having issues about returning it, and the seller seems amicable enough to reach out with problems.The long if it: I'm going to be comparing it to my Notepal X3 A LOT but it holds up fairly well right out of the box. For nothing else, it kicks the Notepal out of the field in quality. I'd be very shocked if this ever broke on me. Both of my new Notepals' had wiggly, loose power ports, and the plastic always felt it was one wrong drop away from cracking. The Klim is far sturdier (at first glance I thought the frame was metal, it's definitely hard enough), and while I'm not one for throwing things, I at least have a bit more faith that it wouldn't bust if I were to drop it or something.If you're debating this vs. others because of the price, double check the other colors available, cuz I got mine 50% off because they were overstocked 👌👌👌I play FFXIV on an Acer Aspire, which tends to (as expected of all MMOs with graphics not total poop on a laptop not necessarily built for hours and hours of gaming) make the laptop warm. Not to the point I can't touch it, but enough that I worry about it not being elevated or having air flow or anything like that, or playing XIV for more than an hour without a break. I've been through three (one handmedown, two new) Notepals in the past 4-5 years, so I figured I'd take a chance with this one since the reviews were more positive.The fans on max are like a box fan on medium; it's on, not whisper quiet, you can hear it spinning, but it's not roaring. The output of air thus far is decent too. Both elevated with its legs and flat on my lapdesk, the cores are averaging out about 30-32°C. XIV running in the background got it to about ~58°, and tabbed in got me between 64-68. I don't have my numbers from my Notepal, but surface temp is pretty similar.I also like that since my Acer is 15.6" there's a bit of room for the air to blow on me, similar to the vent on my old Notepal. That said, I could definitely see laptops on the 16-17" range having overhang issues. But, again, the rubber feet and the pad's grating hold pretty dang solidly, so even then I'd trust it to hold a bigger laptop.One of the things I did check was the fan to chassis contact, as my Notepal would groan, skid, and rattle if I had to pick it up to adjust it or my laptop. Right off the bat, I didn't have that issue with the Klim. I took my laptop off my lap desk and set it on my lap; at no point did the fans scream from contact, like my Notepal would have, and it was actually very comfortable to have it there. I wouldn't put the the legs up, they're practically stilettoes, but it'd be nothing to get into a comfortable position with or without my little lap desk.If anything, I AM dappointed in Amazon for not putting it in an Amazon box (what's the point of asking at checkout) and that it was just left on my stoop in the middle of a rainstorm. But there was no damage to the fan itself that I could see, just some bumps on the box... I do worry for future customers that only a sleeve of bubble wrap is the only thing inside the box padding the product.

I originally bought this cooling pad almost five years ago based on several recommendations from other sites. One review compared benchmark temperature drops, and the KLIM Wind beat the competitors by several degrees. My laptop gets hot enough to burn skin, so I knew I needed the best. This cooling pad worked as promised, possibly even better than promised. So much so that I had my workplace buy one for my office laptop, too!The only complaint I have (and it's relatively minor) is that the provided USB power cable isn't as long as I would like it to be. I assume it's relatively short to reduce desktop clutter and/or because the main use case is to power it from the laptop itself, but I need all the USB ports on my laptop for other things. But whatever: longer USB cables are available and cheap. And as a semi-offset, the two USB ports are connected, so I can kinda still make use of the USB port on those occasions that I power the cooling pad from my laptop.The KLIM Wind was clearly a 5-star product that served flawlessly for over four years. But eventually, the two lower fans started spinning slow and not lighting up without a burst of air from the duster. I had hoped that a thorough dusting would fix the problem. And it did help, at least for a couple of weeks, before the two lower fans finally stopped spinning altogether. I needed a new cooling pad, so I headed back here to buy another KLIM Wind. That's when I discovered (realized?) this bad boy comes with a 5-year warranty! A quick exchange of emails with customer service (including the Amazon order number) and a brand-new replacement was shipped to me in only a few days. Hands-down, this was the easiest, most pain-free technology warranty service I have ever experienced. That pushes this to a 6-star product!

This is the first time I've ever bought or used a cooling pad, so keep that in mind.Fans are very quiet, even when maxed. Whole pad is quite light. The blue lighting in the pad is neat but a little silly, since your laptop will mostly be blocking it!I'm a strange person who mostly uses my laptop while lying in bed; I keep a couple sheets over my body to protect me and then place the laptop right atop my abdomen like a big idiot. My laptop is a high-performance gaming laptop, so naturally it got hot, heating up the sheets and blasting hot air out the sides, and generally making me miserable. (One time I was dumb enough to go without bed sheets for "just a little while" and got a huge blister on my belly as a reward.)Somebody suggested a cooling pad to me. I was skeptical that this would work, especially since the pad would be lying atop my bed sheets instead of propped up on a flat surface like it's really supposed to be. But with the fans set to maximum, the laptop now merely gets warm even under demanding situations, and the pad itself (the thing closest to my body) stays nice and cool.Just a heads up: If you're like me and are dumb enough to lay a gaming laptop atop yourself, be careful to grip the cooling pad from both sides when it comes time to lift pad and laptop up and away from your body. If you grip it from the middle, you're liable to push the plastic underside of the pad upwards and smoosh it into the fans, which creates an unpleasant noise and probably isn't good for the fans. (I know you can just disconnect the laptop from the cooling pad and move them individually to avoid this issue, but you and I both know that we're all in a hurry.)

Highly recommend this product for a few reasons - in comparison to other models I have tried. I have a gaming laptop which I use to run AI software - which is very taxing and when AI software is active my gaming laptop kicks on the fans to super high speed for very long periods. I hooked up a fan on the back of my laptop to help, but it was noisy and having a fan on in winter months blowing air around is not enjoyable. In the past I used these cooling pads but they were lousy. I saw this one had slide stops at the bottom of it, which right there I was immediately sold as others I used in the past didn't have that and my laptop would slide off all the time. The fans are large and move a good amount of air and the fans are quiet. My laptop fans do not kick on super high speed anymore when running the AI software. Also, the back feet give great height since I keep my laptop to the side of my main monitor (basically dual monitor setup, but 2nd monitor is the laptop) and this device allows adjustment to lift my laptop up to make viewing easier. Highly recommend this product - great design! I will say the colors do not matter, so just buy whatever color is cheapest as your laptop sits on-top and you never see the fan colors.

Con - The biggest issue I had with this product is that the little pegs to keep your computer from falling off stick out so far that they dig into your wrists when you actually use the computer for gaming or typing. So the incline feature is honestly useless if you want to actually use your computer for more than just searching things. You can attempt to put them down slightly so they don't dig in but if your computer slips down it'll just shut the pegs all together and they become useless yet again. For gaming if you're only using your left hand for keys then you can put the right peg up to keep it stable.Second, the fan is louder than my computer fan. Granted there were louder ones I've had but not 'silent' as it advertises.Pro - It does the job and I do like the fact you can turn off the top fans or the bottom fans and adjust speed. That is a big thumbs up from me.It does actually keep my computer a good 4 degrees cooler when gaming.

I’ve been using the KLIM Wind Laptop Cooling Pad and it has impressed me both in performance and durability. The cooling efficiency is good — the fans are good yet reasonably quiet.But what truly sets KLIM apart is their after-sales support. One of the legs of my cooling pad broke, so I reached out to their support team through Amazon. To my surprise, they responded quickly and shipped replacement legs completely free of cost from their Netherlands warehouse. I didn’t have to go through any complicated process — just a simple message and they took care of everything.It’s rare these days to find products backed by such reliable and customer-friendly service. KLIM not only provides a great product, but also stands behind it with excellent support.Highly recommended!

J'utilise le produit lorsque je joue à des jeux qui nécessitent de la puissance, et le refroidisseur fait son boulot. Depuis quelques mois, pas de soucis et l'ordinateur ne chauffe plus en jouant. Le seul petit point négatif c'est qu'il faut poser le refroidisseur sur une surface plate (comme un bureau) car à genoux ce n'est pas très à l'aise même si c'est une configuration assez rare pour jouer. Bref, je recommande.

I previously bought the Cyclone type from KLIM and couldn't stand it because of a whirring sound that drove me crazy within ten minutes of turning it on. This version barely makes any noise and absolutely no whirring. Much much better. It's perfect for my 16" gaming laptop with a bit of space for adjusting and will probably do fine with a 17"

Refroidissement optimal. Très efficace.

Ventajas:-Es ligero.-No ocupa mucho espacio, para mi portátil de 16 pulgadas va perfecto de tamaño.-Coloca el ordenador a una altura comodísima para la vista y las manos, perfecto para editar o jugar.-No suena mucho, no se percibe apenas (evidentemente si estás callado en una zona cerrada pues suena más)-No enfría tanto(ver desventajas) pero al tenerlo en una posición alta hace que el ordenador pueda respirar por debajo.-Producto muy bien presentado y simple de usar.-La base es estable, mi ordenador pesa 2kg y ni se resbala ni nada, se mantiene bastante sujeto ( eso sí, no recomiendo ponerlo entre las piernas, mejor en una mesa, ya que el material no es acero ni nada y puede que se parta por una mala posición con el peso añadido)Desventajas:-Pensaba que enfriaría mas( no está mal, el ordenador se mantiene menos caliente que antes, aún así no esperes un congelador, a mi me funciona bien porque tengo un ventilador integrado en el portátil y entre el producto y el ventilador mantiene el ordenador frío, que no sé si hará la misma función para los que tengan un ventilador adjunto)
