The FACET is an [iPad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-ipad-stand) stand that allows users to adjust their screens to varying degrees. This design is ideal for those who love their iPad, but hate holding the contraption when in use.

The FACET is quite simple in design, but extremely effective. The [magnetic handling](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twelve-south-curve-nano) allows for the piece to hold firmly to the iPad, while still letting users adjust its degrees with ease. This degree system with the FACET is one of its many strong points. Because users have the options of three separate levels, multiple positions can be used when the iPad is in use. Whether you are laying down on the couch for a relaxing night in, or playing in the park for the day with your [favorite book](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/astropads-new-bookcase), the FACET is the perfect tool.
