 Do Not Buy This - Looks Good - Does Not WorkFeb 06, 2010
Horrible rip off. The Mac Book Air does not balance on this and the bottom rocks. The fan is poor and there is no on or off switch. You have to plug it in to the one usb port on your air. BUT that usb port is special. And the pass-through on the Zefyr is not special - so you can't plug a super drive into the pass through - only into the Air itself. The idea is great but it's like nobody even TRIED to use this thing with an Air! PLEASE - don't buy this just because it looks so cool. We have to stick together and when something doesn't work at all we have to vote with our dollars and make manufacturers and reviewers hear us. I have the Mac Book Pro version and it's fine - though it still needs an on/off switch. The Pro is bigger and fits on the Zephyr right. BUT IF YOU HAVE AN AIR - PASS AND DON'T FALL FOR THIS. And shame on the reviewers who clearly didn't use the thing with an Air . . .

 barely adequateAug 30, 2009
The USB cable is on the wrong side (left), and the fan is placed so that it does not cool the hotest part of the MBA. Does not sit well on my lap and rocks back and forth when placed on a hard surface. Also must be very careful when sliding the unit shut, the USB cable can easily get cut. Does cool the unit by 5 to 7 degrees.

Bad design but nice concept. Mar 07, 2009
Does NOT fit Macbook Air. An aluminum sink is a good idea, but the problem is that it does NOT contact the aluminum (MBA sits on the rubber bumpers) of the MBA so it does not transfer heat. Fan is also on the wrong side of the device for MBA. Fan is located on the right side of the cooler, but the hottest part of the MBA is on the left side. Price is also MUCH too high for what it is and how it performs. Would be better if it had fans on BOTH sides.
Aside from that, the fan is quiet and the USB port does not get taken up by the plug.

 Nice little coolerOct 04, 2008
It could be better in a few ways, but this cooler has a lot going for it. It's small and with the wings slid back together is even smaller. It's very light weight. It's even cool looking.
The fan doesn't seem like it does much good, so I usually don't bother plugging it in. (When you do plug it in, you can plug another USB into it.)
I mostly use this if I'm working in bed, where it not only dissipates at least some of the heat but it also keeps the air vents from getting blocked.

Not for MacBook AirAug 09, 2008
Pro's:
1. Becomes slightly warm, presumably by drawing heat from the MacBook and not from it's own fan motor
Con's:
1. Does not fit well with a MacBook Air (partially obscures video-out port)
2. Somewhat awkward to setup (each time used, not once)
3. No "stick" to keep it and the Air from slipping out of place with each other
4. Does not balance properly with an Air, i.e., requires weight of one's hands on the keyboard to keep the Air grounded
5. Roughly as loud as the MacBook Air's fan at full RPM--but the Zefyr is always at full RPM, unlike the MBA exhaust that adjusts to need
Summary:
It doesn't do much, what little it does is done awkwardly, and it looks nice when not in use.
