5 Stands to Keep Your iPad at Attention

Wooden Desktop Cradle $19
The wooden platform gives you a solid base for watching movies in bed. Unless you're in a waterbed. In which case, let us know how 1975 is unfolding for you.


Compass $40
Folded flat, the Compass iPad stand is about the size of a candy bar. Harder on the teeth though.

 

Joule $129
Handmade in California, the Joule stand is the prettiest option out there. It adjusts easily, is rubberized on the bottom, features a red velvet cradle, and whispers sweet nothings to your iPad while you play French art films.

Elegant $29
A handmade wooden stand looks homey on your nightstand until you're ready to use it. Or until your girlfriend steals it to prop back issues of Bon Appetit while she's cooking.

 

Eva $18
A case/stand combo that makes your iPad look like a retro TV. Excellent for watching The Jetsons on Hulu.
