  • Portable.

Cons

  • None

Guide Review - Wheelmate Steering Wheel Desk

The Wheelmate attaches securely to the lower portion of your steering wheel, which makes it easy to remember that you should never try and operate a laptop and drive at the same time. The Wheelmate would get in the way of safe operation of the vehicle.

The convenience of two work surfaces in one gadget provides mobile professionals with a great way to work and help them stay organized in their vehicle office.

The Wheelmate is portable - it will fit easily into a laptop case or in-vehicle organizer when not in use. For those die-hard caffiene junkies, it does include a cup holder.

Using a properly sized and secure surface like the Wheelmate means you'll be less prone to errors in your work because you aren't comfortable and you'll be able to work more ergonomically, which means less chance of causing injury to yourself.

The Wheelmate is a very reasonably priced piece of mobile gear which would enhance the working experience of any mobile professional who relies on using their vehicle as a mobile office.
