Abstract: A desk unit is presented which is adaptable for multiple convenient and effective uses by a user in seated or reclining position by placing the desk over the user's lap. The desk is fully portable and foldable, yet light weight and sufficiently sturdy to support a laptop computer, large book, art supplies, eating vessels, or even a complete newspaper in vertical position with the aid of the included clip. The desk is comprised principally of a table surface, hingable ledge, hingeable working surface lid, and foldable legs. The lid is fixed in angular position by adjustable brackets to best present the contained objects to the user, and a variety of convenience features may be built into the unit such as compartments for containment of writing instruments and height adjustable legs.
