The other day, I was reading a recipe off my iPad while cooking and while scrolling down, knocked the device from the shallow groove that it was propped on and…anyone have any tips on how to get flour out of an iPad crevice? My iPad case is beautiful yes, but functional, not so much. 

If you’ve had an iPad kitchen fail like me, you
might already be eyeing the Belkin
Chef Stand
. Another option: this very simple and sleek Tab iPad stand found on Etsy. Leave it to an artist–it’s laser cut
from clear acrylic and lets you securely stand your iPad horizontally or
vertically at a 30 degree slant. Pretty simple.
I see this as being a kitchen counter fixture
so you can access iTunes, the Internet, have an ongoing photo slide show
playing – and clearly, prevent any future flour fiascos. -Jeana 

The Tab iPad Stand is available from Etsy in
glossy white, black or clear acrylic for $35.

  1. I like this invention almost as much as the iPad itself. https://www.thinkgeek.com/homeoffice/kitchen/e953/?srp=2

  2. Glad to hear, Lori. We checked it out but were terrified to hang our iPads over a tile floor by a magnet on a swinging door. If you like it, we’re happy to take another look!

  3. The magnet is EXTREMELY strong. Hard to get off the refrigerator strong. I am more concerned about dropping the iPad trying to remove it from the magnet. It is not difficult, but you do need to release two corners individually and it can sometimes be a bit off-balanced. You could always pull off the entire unit and then remove the iPad in a more forgiving location. I really do love this product. It is fabulous for cooking. We also use the iPad as a central hub in the kitchen and check our family calendars, weather, quick email and Facebook updates, stream music, and of course, read CoolMomTech!

  4. Great review. Thanks for doing our job for us! 🙂
