"Great little stand with precise control and nice grip," wrote one of the 9,200 five-star reviewers, who uses their stand to prop up their phone or tablet while cooking. "The stand is made from quality, finished metal and the hinge to alter the viewing angle is strong and hasn't loosened up over time. Works well for my iPad when placed horizontally, and my phone fits comfortably in the stand with no wobble. Highly recommend!"

Not only can you adjust the Omoton stand up to 270 degrees, but the aluminum gadget also has a bottom hook that can hold any size cell phone that has a case on it. Plus, the hook area and stand bottom are equipped with silicone pads to keep your phone in place and further protect it from damage.

"I love this phone stand," added another reviewer, who shared they're also a fan of the fact that they can easily charge their phone while it's on the stand. "I kept trying to lean my phone on my kitchen counter while cooking, and the phone would constantly slip down flat. So I saw this one that had an adjustable stand, and I have to say, it is awesome… I give this a 10 in my book!"
