LEVO G2 Deluxe Book Holder

I got this because I wanted to read at night in the bed and trying to hold a book above my face for extended lengths of time was very uncomfortable and caused eventual wrist pain. I've just spent my first evening with it and it is AMAZING! It's very well-built, sturdy and does not tip over easily even with a heavy book like my 2215 page hardcover Henry Morris Study Bible! It's pricey, but solves my problem beautifully! With all the time it will now allow me to read in comfort I'M VERY PLEASED AND EXCITED with my investment. I couldn't wait to write this review! The design is perfect and well-thought out. I use it basically to suspend my books above my face and it handles this very securely. The page holder clips work surprisingly well. I was afraid they may be awkward while turning pages but that's not an issue at all! I love everything about this stand and I highly recommend it it! This is one of the few items I've ordered that has far exceeded my expectations! I'm looking forward now to reading all my many books comfortably in bed before going to sleep. I love how it allows me to read and shift my body position while the book stays untouched exactly where it is! SWEET! Assembly was very easy and quick! I would think ANYONE who loves to read would love having one of these! It's a Godsend for me...because now I can spend more quality time with my Bible study books which I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!

This product deserves a top review. Packaged great, the toughest part of putting together was getting out of package. That means it was secure, no shipping damage, well thought out! The most impressive piece is the base. Plenty heavy enough, could have been made much cheaper, most buyers wouldn't have a clue, but the manufacturers knew where to put the money, the base. Thought out! Next are the polls which work very smoothly, nothing flimsy, thought out! The resistance is perfect, which means when you adjust where you want the book platform, it stays put, thought out! The book platform is a great size, can handle most books, it swivels to perfection, no need for the straps in my situation which is sitting in a chair, thought out! Now for those who want to lay down to read, the book holders are perfect, thought out! All and all, a thought out product. Only took about five minutes to assemble. If I could read two books at the same time, I would have another one. Thanks product makers

I ordered this barely days ago and it has already arrived. Unpacked and assembled in less than 30 minutes, including trying to whisk away those pesky styrofoam crumbs. I used only a U.S. quarter, a phillips screwdriver and a pair of pliers. Instructions are modest but adequate, sequential and in verbiage with images, not in those universal symbols used by a certain Scandinavian company. I did not have to insert the casters since the base came with the casters in place. (Perhaps that is a recent improvement). Also LEVO included two extra sets of the tiny bolt-washers-nut assemblies needed attach the page holders. Very generous thank you. The stand is soooooooo adjustable - EASILY adjustable. It is heavy, rolls well on the casters and is stable. I sit in a very low chair and with the vertical supports collapsed completely the book is at just the right height. If the vertical support was completely extended I could read from it standing up (I am 5'6"). My current book is about 500 hundred pages. Poor eyesight requires that the page be fairly close to my face to see the print. I tried a stack of pillows but my arms/hands still got tired of trying to keep the book in position. I have frequently thought about getting some kind of book stand and I am really glad I finally did. (I have a 600-page book in my reading stack.) This book stand is a marvel! It is black and does not match anything in my home but I am never giving it up. A small price to pay for such a wonderful tool. I only shopped online and fancied some of the other book stands I found - more elegant, beautiful woods or classy chrome. But in reading the reviews I found previous buyers were disappointed and some were just stuck with a bad purchase. Overall, this stand has gotten very positive reviews and I can see why. The only small issue that came up was in mounting my fat book on the plate. It mounted just fine but because it is quite thick and I am at the beginning of the book, the left page was closer to the plate than the right page. This made the right pages bend toward the center spine and the page did not lay flat. I put a 1/2" thick book under the left side of my book. Anchored the left strap again and now the book pages are flat on both sides of the book. I may not have described this well but if you mount a thick book you will immediately understand the issue. And please note - it is not an issue with the book stand. I highly recommend this product and would buy again, and again. If I can tear myself away from reading in comfort I will come back and post a photo.

As a person with numerous finger, hand, wrist, forearm, elbow, bicep/tricep, and rotator cuff injuries, I cannot say enough about how much I love this book stand! $200 is a lot of money, but it's pretty clear to me already that it was money well spent. I previously purchased a much less-expensive book stand made by Lecco which has done a passing job but has to be physically picked up to be moved and the mechanism for both holding the book and adjusting the height and angle cannot compare to this Levo G2 Deluxe. You will not tear or even damage pages with this book holder and it is sturdy enough to hold a lot of weight. The heavy base with casters insures that this thing isn't going to tip over but it can easily be rolled out of the way with one hand. Just as importantly, this stand gives you a nearly limitless range of positions from which to keep a book handy. I use it in a recliner with a laptop or keyboard and it is so sturdy and the movement of the arms and other parts is so smooth that everything but turning the pages is a one hand job. And speaking of turning the pages, this product has an ingenious method for doing just that, again without any issues with damaged or torn pages. It is so well-made. If you need hands-free access to books for any reason whatsoever, do not hesitate to purchase this stand. It does require a minimum of assembly but it is not complicated at all-- the directions are very clear and the wrench is included. I cannot recommend this product highly-enough!

The construction of this book stand is clever and very user-friendly. It’s easy to move, adjust the height, and even use while lying in bed—which is a huge plus. For lighter, thinner books, it works amazingly well. However, I was disappointed that the head doesn’t hold heavier or thicker books securely. My biology and medical textbooks tend to slide or tilt, even when adjusted carefully. That was actually the main reason I purchased the stand. If you mostly read small- to medium-sized books, this is a fantastic product. But for large or heavy books, it may not be the right fit.

This baby is seriously beefy - it's large and sturdy and would probably hold just about any size of book, except perhaps the Gutenberg Bible. While it's well-constructed and impressive, I still rather blanched at the price. If we weren't literally getting it for somebody who can't hold a book anymore, I would have passed on this expensive bit of hardware. Just for hands-free convenience, it wouldn't have been worth it, for my own personal use - but for NECESSITY, and for someone dear, it more than meets our hopes and expectations. One word of warning: although it's large, heavy, and sturdy, when you're adjusting a decent-sized book is on the book stand, it can overbalance while extended - even with the heavily-weighted base - so be careful. The wheels are nice, and the brakes lock and really hold, and I don't worry about it breaking, so we're pretty happy with it. It extends nicely, is quite adjustable, and is overall a good product. Having to turn pages with your left hand (per the instructions) can get a bit fatiguing for a right-handed person, though.

An excellent product! I have arthritis in my neck which makes it uncomfortable to look down to read a book in my lap. The Levo Book Stand lets me place my book at eye-level so that I don't have to bend my neck at all. No more pain! The unit is heavy, very sturdy, totally adjustable.....a little difficult to wheel around on carpet, but that's a minor problem. I like my Levo so much that I ordered two additional book holders so that I can swap out books quickly and keep the stand at the same height. Levo was a great find!

I love to read, but I have a messed up spine and hands, and it is difficult and painful to hold books up to read. My collection of failed apparati to remedy this issue includes tabletop stands, pillows, and clamp arms. None of them worked very well, and I got out of the habit of reading over the years. I recently had an idea that there had to be a floor stand version of what I had, and that might work. But in my search, I found something far superior. I hesitated at the cost, but recalled that you usually get what you pay for. I would now pay twice as much for a new one if something happened to my beloved book stand! We actually call it the Book Stand of Legend. I’ve had it for nearly a year now, and I can’t go a day without using it. I’m devouring books at the rate I did as a kid, and it’s utterly fantastic. It holds the heaviest 1000 page hardbacks I’ve put on there without even trying. The Velcro straps at first seemed clumsy, but they work incredibly well for holding hardbacks. I did trick it out a bit with magnets to hold paperbacks securely, and that is literally the only improvement I would suggest. The weight of the base keeps it completely sturdy it’s the arm fully extended. The page arms are AMAZING!!! All three exclamation points completely necessary. My fingers are particularly weak, and I can easily change the page one-handed while drinking coffee with the other hand. The book support tabs work quite well for hardbacks, again slightly less well for paperbacks, but my added magnets hold those just fine, and the tabs fold down when you don’t need them. The caster wheels are also wonderful, and allow me to move this remarkably heavy stand easily with almost no effort at all, even to other rooms, though I had a very hard time moving the base plate at all during assembly, and I’m not sure I could pick it up now if I tried. I can swing the arm smoothly and easily to tuck it away when not in use. It is a permanent fixture in my reading corner, but takes up less space than an ottoman. If you’re digging through reviews because you’re actually considering buying this, just do it. You’ll thank yourself later.

Absolute amazing! Good and solid quality build coming from a craftsman perspective, everything feels very solid and heavy. Building process was very uncomplicated. Just lifting the weight plate I already knew this was going to be worth it ordering it from the UK to Germany.

What did I dislike about this product? The PRICE 🤣🤣. What did I like about this product? The fact that it was everything it promised to be, and more. When it first arrived, I was shocked by the weight of the package. The description on Amazon did little to mentally prepare me for how heavy it truly was. After going through the 40min hassle of setting it up, I really began to appreciate what a game changer this product was. For the first time in years, I was able to sit and enjoy a book for a decent length of time, without a neck ache.

Hochwertige Verpackung für einen weiten Versandweg von New Jersey. Daher auch die recht lange Lieferzeit. Der Aufbau ist unkompliziert, das erforderliche Material inklusive Werkzeug ist verlustsicher verpackt, für den Aufbau gibt es auch einen Video-Link. Fertig aufgebaut kann man ein Buch einspannen und handfrei im Fernsehsessel lesen. Was fehlt, aber durch einen Folgekauf nachgeholt werden konnte, ist eine Leselampe. Damit steht einem entspannten Leseabend in der Vorweihnachtszeit nichts mehr entgegen

Too much expensive with very bad customer service!

Very sturdy, well packed in very nature-friendly stuff, comes with very lovely welcoming letter from seller Serious Readers in UK, relatively easy to assemble. Stable, handy. Maybe I’d like better white or grey stand, but there was just this gunmetal colour in offer. A little “träurig” colour. Seller is very careful about clients, I contacted with them by phone and via email about special cradle for iPad Pro 12.9”, so far everything is almost ideal. Never felt better in my neck, arms and eyeballs during reading and using iPad Pro 12.9”, than now, with this. Only negative - overpriced. I do not regret purchase, but in US Levostore and in UK 30-40% cheaper, but as it comes to EU, it becomes 261€. I do not regret, I was hunting for just this stand for 3-4 years, and always was written: it does not ship to your country or - out of stock and we don’t know, when it will be available again. And now I finally got this, while I’m alive yet! Harry Jirgensons, MD, Riga, Lettland
