Spigen Mac Studio M4/M2/M1 Max, M3/M2/M1 Ultra Transparent Filter Case Stand Transparent Built in Air-Filter Desktop PVC Dust Prevention Ventilation - Crystal Clear

The underside of a Mac Studio catches a lot of dust. I mean a lot. When I traded in my M1 Max Mac Studio and was unplugging it, I was shocked to see the massive, thick dust ring that had collected. I had not cleaned the underside in 2.5 years! This stand has a built in air filter so when the Mac Studio sucks in air the dust is filtered. The filter is washable. The stand fits the Mac Studio perfectly and it looks good too. It is pricey, but as far as I know Spigen is the only one selling such a stand so I guess they can dictate the price without competition. I'm planning on keeping my pricey M4 Max Mac Studio for 5 years at least, so this stand is an investment. What is an extra $50 bucks when you just dropped $3K, right?

Well designed. Like that it elevates the Mac Studio off the desktop by a little, to allow for better airflow / cooling. The only thing I wish is that it "held" the Mac Studio a little better. The Mac Studio doesn't "Sit" snugly in the unit. That's not to say that it's going to slip off, but it can rotate a little within the borders of the stands depression.

The Mac Studio is one of the best computers that Apple has put on the market to date. Due to running background utilities, I need to keep my Studio powered on 24/7. In doing so, it is highly susceptible to dust, dirt, and dog hair getting sucked into its bottom filtration. Even if you casually use the Studio for a few hours a day, over a period of time, a lot of gunk is going to collect in the air filter. This stand from Spigen was brought to my attention by other Studio owners. Here on Amazon, the asking price ($36 at the time of purchase) is almost half of what Spigen is asking on their website ($70). So, you are getting a great deal purchasing it here. The stand is very simplistic. And, when you place your Mac Studio upon it, you feel as if Spigen didn't put enough thought into its design. The Studio just kind of plops loosely on top of it with no locking "snap" to ensure that perfect fit. In fact, you may have to use tape to hold the stand in position as you flip your Studio over during installation. You, of course, remove the tape after it's in place. The flaws in design aside, this stand serves a very important purpose. First, it raises your Studio a few inches off the desk making it less prone to collecting dirt. Next, the stand has a removable plastic filter ring that can be easily cleaned. With the filter ring in place, dirt and debris get trapped there before it reaches your Studio. The stand looks okay. One would wish it were silver-colored to match the Studio. I am just gratified to have something like this as I was very concerned about the amount of dirt I found collecting under my Studio in just under 3 months of ownership. Would highly recommend this Spigen stand only if you can get it for under $40.

I’ve been using my Mac Studio for a while now, and it’s impressively quiet, practically silent, even during intensive tasks. Despite its excellent performance, I decided to invest in this airflow stand to ensure optimal ventilation and protect the longevity of my device. After using it for some time, I can confidently say this product is a fantastic addition to my setup, though it’s not without a minor flaw. The design of this stand is sleek and modern, perfectly complementing the aesthetic of my Mac Studio and Studio Display. It’s compact enough to fit snugly beneath my Studio Display, even when attached, which is a huge plus for those of us with limited desk space. The stand elevates the Mac Studio just enough to promote better airflow, helping to keep the device cool during long work sessions or demanding workloads like video editing or 3D rendering. The plug-and-play nature of the product is another highlight. No complicated setup or tools required. I simply placed my Mac Studio in the stand, and it was ready to go, seamlessly integrating into my workspace. The build quality of the stand is generally solid, with a premium feel that matches Apple’s design ethos. The materials used are lightweight yet sturdy, and the minimalist design ensures it doesn’t distract from the clean look of my desk setup. I also appreciate how the stand maintains the Mac Studio’s stability, with no wobbling or shifting, even when I’m typing or moving things around on my desk. However, there is one notable drawback: the corner leg protectors. These small pads, intended to prevent the stand from scratching or damaging the desk surface, were disappointingly flimsy. Shortly after I started using the stand, the protectors on two of the legs broke off, leaving the rough corner edges exposed. Unfortunately, this resulted in some minor scratch marks on my wooden desk, which was frustrating, especially for a product designed with such attention to detail otherwise. I would have expected more durable protectors, given the premium price point of this accessory. Despite this issue, I still highly recommend this airflow stand for Mac Studio users. It does an excellent job of enhancing ventilation, looks fantastic, and fits perfectly in a compact setup. The plug-and-play simplicity makes it accessible for anyone, and the overall design is a great match for Apple’s ecosystem. If the manufacturer could improve the durability of the leg protectors, this product would be nearly perfect. For now, I’ve mitigated the scratching issue by adding my own adhesive felt pads, and the stand continues to perform admirably. If you’re looking for a stylish and functional way to protect your Mac Studio’s airflow, this is a great choice. Just be mindful of the leg protectors.

The stand fits well under the Mac Studio. You have to center it over the stand - this is only a problem when you move your Mac. Overall the quality of the plastic of the stand and filter look good. They could possibly make a revision improving centering and perhaps even some new asthetic but it does the job. I haven't found a better option than this one.

This does the job admirably, keeping dust out of the Studio's intake. Its alignment pin makes it easy to remount the Mac atop it after moving it to vacuum. I vacuum each 2-3 weeks so the filter stays clean, but this product makes it easy to sleep knowing the Mac is not sucking in dust. It's also nice that the filter can be removed for cleaning if needed; as I said, I just vacuum both sides of it every couple of weeks.

The product quality is excellent, with fine workmanship and good transparency. Although it’s made of plastic, it doesn’t feel cheap at all. The overall height is well proportioned—not too tall. I don’t expect it to provide perfect dust protection, but having an extra layer of filtration does significantly reduce the amount of dust being inhaled. This is the same principle used by front dust filters on most large PC cases. While the price is a bit on the higher side, it’s definitely worth buying.

Perfect! I’m a YouTuber and editing makes my devices get hot! This has kept my Mac Studio cool and running efficiently It looks nice too it’s very lowkey and sleek Highly recommend
