elago W3 Stand Compatible with Apple Watch Series 8/SE2/7/6/SE/5/4/3/2/1 (45mm, 44mm, 42mm, 41mm, 40mm, 38mm) (Classic White) - Classic Monitor Design, Compatible with Nightstand Mode

My husband was always knocking his Apple watch of the nightstand. Saw this in a 20 Best FB post so thought Id try it. He loves it. Had to notch out the bracket to get the charger to fit correctly (its an older model) but now it works perfectly for him.

There’s nothing to not like about this. Reminds me of my Mac Classic every time I charge my watch. Yeah, there are iPod and Nintendo chargers out there, but this one is just perfect if you started with a Mac Classic. Love it!

Nice texture and feel. Walls of the unit are thick, but about right. Since it’s a one piece molded elastomer part needs to be thick. I made a wood core to slip inside the unit, which allows me to secure to a surface. The front frame of the Mac can be pulled down very easily, but has enough strength to put a little pressure on the watch and push it toward the charging puck. Never had the original Mac, but did have the upgraded version with either a 40 or 80meg HD. As you can see in the pic, mine has a keyboard and mouse.

Overall, a fun/clever product, with a few caveats... Pros: * Quality materials * Good value (purchased from Amazon for $11) * Cute/clever/whimsical design Cons: * Apple watch fits a little too loose in the stand which causes a significant air gap between the front of the stand and the watch display, especially when viewed at an angle. * Occasionally loses charging connection to the back of the watch because of the same lose tolerances. * Charging puck sits a little too far inside the stand, contributing to the loose connection. It should be noted that Im using the stand with a 42mm Stainless Steel Apple watch series 1 with Stainless link bracelet/band, so the largest possible watch, and it still has a loose fit.

Such a simple device. This is 3rd charger Ive used for my Apple watch and the only one I like. This charger is on an end table alongside my bed. My bed is about the same level as the table and during the night my pillow would slide over and knock watch off whatever charger I was using. And it was not easy to get the watch settled on the other chargers. With this one, it drops right in and stays in place. Plus the display is easy to bring up the time function in an easily readable format. A very simple device but very well designed and effective.

This is one of the things I truly love and appreciate daily. Unlike things you buy and use every now and then or things you use daily but arent quite perfect: this is perfect for daily use and it has that cute vintage look. The soft silicone wont ever scratch my AppleWatch and holds it in nightstand mode position. I never have to fidget with getting the watch in or getting it to stay in the right place. Because its one piece of molded silicone, it stays where I put it on my bed table nicely. It doesnt scratch the finish of the bed table, either. It doesnt matter what band is on my AppleWatch, this just works. It is simple and useful. So few things are. I just saw this on my bed table and having used it daily for months it struck me just how much I appreciate it and I wanted to write a review. I dont know how you could waste money on this unless you dont have an AppleWatch.

The best purchase I made!!

just pop in your original or third party charger and slide your watch with the crown facing up. it will attach and start to charge your device, as well as to enter nightstand mode. mine is a 45mm apple watch series 7 and as far as I know it should work all the way to the very first generation. I’ll get the iMac charger stand variant for my office as well. this one is staying on my nightstand.

Works exactly as it should. Brings me joy each time I see it.

This is an awesome idea for an Apple watch charging stand. It works flawlessly, as long as you use the original charger that came with the watch. I have an aftermarket charger that works with the watch just fine with the watch, but does not fit into the hole/space (within this charging stand) where the charging cable should be placed. Since I purchased two stands, I will need to purchase another charging cable from Apple, or find one with the same dimensions as the Apple charger so that it will fit. But all in all, this is a great product. Just wanted to give everyone else a heads up if they were planning to use an aftermarket charger with this device, that they might want to verify the dimensions of the charging dock ahead of time to make sure it will fit.
