Just found the wedge-e ereader / tablet holder and its looks like an interesting little product for reading in bed. Thinking of buying one but before I do was wondering if anyone here has one and can give me some feedback? The website I found it on is www.wedge-e.netFeedback please...

It certainly looks like it would work but you might want to check out the CoylCushion thread and the link under Alice's signature. It is cheaper and gives you the flexibility to change the angle. Plus you can select the fabric you want from a lot of choices and even add a design. Check out the thread and read the reviews on this. At least it is another option for you.

Wedge-E though? Seriously? What a name...
It looks pretty neat but for $30 that's pretty steep. I love my Coylcushion.

I just purchased the Wedge-E in the gray color. I got it over the weekend. I love the thing. It's extremely lightweight and only weighs 6 ounces. It holds my iPad or Kindle at the perfect angle. My devices don't budge or move around on it. No reshaping or repositioning of the Wedge-E required. It does everything I need. Great to use in bed. When I am tired and done reading, I can just toss it aside when I'm done with it.

Lauri, Just got my wedge-e too... Five Stars! Used it all weekend. This is exactly what I was looking for in a holder. It's well made and the angle is just right. Got a lot of questions over the weekend asking where I got it. It is actually alot smaller than it looks on site, which I prefer. I definitely would recommend the wedge-e if your looking for a holder to use on the couch or in bed. My Kindle loves it...lol

Thanks for posting this. It looks like exactly what I'm looking for. Do you remember how long it took to arrive after placing your order?

I would think that the fact that you can't reshape or reposition the e-wedge pillow would be a con, not a pro. That's why I like the CoylCushion, it can be repositioned any way depending on whether I'm reading with it on my lap, laying down, or sitting at the table reading. One of my favorite aspects of the cushion is its adaptability.

Those that have the wedge-e do you have a picture with it reading in bed? Just wonder how it works lying down.

There is a picture of a girl using it in bed on their site, I use it in bed to read and it works awesome. If for some reason I need to adjust the angle a little I put my blanket under it. The best thing imo is the rigidity of the lip and support of the foam. It holds the kindle steady, doesn't go crooked if I shift a little while laying in bed. To me a bean bag just doesn't cut it, ever sit on a bean bag?? All you do it constantly adjust the thing.

Looks rather wide to me. I don't really have that much space to spare when in bed on my side to angle that holder correctly for me...at least it doesn't look that way. It looks like a nice product...but probably not right for me. And I don't want to have to worry about getting a blanket to stuff up under it when I need to change the tilt. JMHO.

I don't really post but I thought this looked cool although it is a little wide for me. I read the thread and I don't know if the people posting do work for the company but they lost my business if they do and if they don't well you helped them lose my business. I believe Kaisersose your posts were very hateful so thanks for helping me choose the CoylCushion  I hope this company does great though because I don't like to see companies go under.

I believe Kaisersose your posts were very hateful so thanks for helping me choose the CoylCushion  I hope this company does great though because I don't like to see companies go under. The photos here and on the company website look to be the same person or coincidence that they have the same shorts and color wedge-e. It is a bit odd to have so many new to this forum with this thread being their only posting esp as slow as things have been lately. If it is the company staff than just be honest and come out and say "I have this product that you might like.....". then let people ask questions and decide what works for them. Soliciting people to join and post reviews (if that is the case rather than just appearing to be) is a turn off to me. I'm sure it is a decent product and people have different preferences but I prefer an upfront approach.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I like the coyl cushion and almost bought one but I prefer the wedge-e. I don't regret my decision. I Love my Wedge-e!
It's just too bad that anyone else who may be looking to get real honest feedback on the wedge-e can't because there appears to be coyl cushion employees, owners, family, or paid spammers on here putting down the wedge-e and promoting the coyl cushion. So obvious! Lol In my opinion it just makes them look bad...
I'm sure the coyl cushion is a great product but I would have to say I prefer the wedge-e. I appears to work with all type of tablets. Its simple, sleeker and more modern looking and i wanted something with a fixed angle, which could be a drawback but hasn't been an issue with me yet and I have used it many times on the couch and in bed. The size is just right and it's very lightweight. Best holder I've purchased so far in my opinion.
Well just wanted to post some REAL feedback because it looked like there where some coyl cushion pumpers on the thread promoting their product and bashing a great product. Didn't think i was gonna start the coyl cushion attack on the wedge-e. Lol
I am new to this forum and just got a kindle recently and was just looking for a good holder and found the wedge-e and was just asking for feedback on it, thats all! No affiliation to wedge-e.
Good luck wedge-e!

OK, folks, let's not send this thread downhill. I'm going to move through and prune off topic posts. A reminder that this is a topic for discussing the Wedge-E couch holder. A fine point: people who have tried both the Wedge-E and another product may post their comparisons and reasons for preferring one over the other. That's reasonable and useful for members making purchasing decisions. However, as everywhere else on KindleBoards, vendors of a product should restrict self-promotion to their own product thread. Also, remember that KindleBoards is the nice Internet forum. Let's not disprove that in Accessories, of all places!  Thanks, Betsy KB Moderator

Like the look of the Wedge-e, love the name too, but I too wonder how it reads in bed on your side. Would love to see a photo of that.

I read in bed lying on my side and I have the Coyle cushion and I like that I can jamb my kindle into the cushion so that it is standing on its corner. My cushion is fleece and is quite comfy as a pillow too.
