I’m looking for a stand for my steam deck. I’m not too picky on size or style, but I want it to be quite stable. It can be one that attaches to the deck, part of a case, or completely separate. The more portable the better of course, but that’s secondary to my main concern.

Ideally I want a stand that can be used traditionally, but also comfortably in my lap or in bed.

Open to purchasable or printable options.

The problem with most stands I have found is that they are too small or not sturdy enough. For example, the deckmate stand looks great and has good range, but it is so narrow that it couldn’t be used to prop the steam deck up in my lap if I want to watch videos for a bit. Ideally I could 3D print a super wide version of the deckmate kickstand, but the version of the mechanism that goes with the printable version is not as good as the pre-made one and super expensive to ship outside of the US.

I designed and 3D printed a super basic stand with this sort of design:

The problem here is again it just isn’t stable, the steam deck can pretty easily slip from side to side or tip forward if not on a completely level surface.
