StarTech.Com Laptop Monitor Stand - Computer Monitor Stand - Full Motion Articulating - Vesa Mount Monitor Desk Mount

Very solid arm and easy to maneuver. Mounting to the desk was a breeze. I simply clamped it to the edge without going through the grommet, and it's pretty sturdy. The clamp base that touches the top of the desk surface does have padding so as not to damage the desk, the bottom, however, does not. But I didn't have to tighten the bottom too hard for the arm to be sturdy. Mounted with a 28" Samsung monitor, and didn't need to make any tension adjustments for it to handle monitor movements. Overall, I'm quite pleased with this monitor arm. The only issue I had was that the vesa mounting screws that connect the back plate of the arm to the monitor were not deep enough to secure to the back of the monitor. I happened to find four spare screws around the home that worked - if someone facing the same issue didn't have spare screws, I can see them being easily annoyed or frustrated (it annoyed me a little bit, actually). It would have been courteous of StarTech.com to include a few different screw options to account for different depth lengths - it would only cost them pennies to do this. Having said this, the minor annoyance of the screws during the installation process doesn't detract from the functionality of the arm once it is installed, and that's the reason I maintained the five stars.

Pros:Sturdy, delivered early.Cons:1. Both the monitor mount and the laptop tray do not always remain on a level position whenever I change the angle. I have to find the perfect angle to make it levelled. In most angles, the monitor mount and the laptop trays tilts to the left.2. M5x12 screws do not match with the bolts. Useless!5. The biggest problem is the VESA mount for the monitor. It is on a diagonal position that it does not match with the position of the screw holes on the surface of the display. I had to interchange it with the VESA mount for the laptop tray which is positioned exactly according to the installation surface of the display. Why is the VESA mount for the monitor designed differently from the VESA mount of the laptop tray? Is this a manufacturing defect? Since the VESA mount for the monitor (which I interchanged with the VESA mount for the laptop tray) is positioned diagonally, I had to drill two holes on the laptop tray just to make use of it. Otherwise, the laptop tray would be unusable. Since I am not a technician, drilling the holes was tricky and difficult because the laptop tray is quite thick.

UPDATE: Goes from 3 start to 2. I am unable to tighten or undo the screw which holds the stand to the desk. The stand is poorly design and the plastic slips...Pros:sturdyA wide range of angles at which screen can be adjusted.A wide base, which distributes the weight of the stand better than others.It works with 17 inch laptopCons:Cable management system is a joke, it's completely useless.laptop support is not very well design. the laptop tray cannot be tilted as the laptop will slide off the tray. I tested it with 15.6 inch laptop no luck. The only way to resolve this issue was to buy a strap, as shown in the pictures.the soft tabs which prevent laptop from getting damaged, fall off too easily.Price - given all the issues as above, its not worth the current price of £99, hence it was rated 3 starts.

It's on documentation that arrived with the package says up to 28 inch displays. I have a 34 inch display so you can imagine my disappointment. I give it 3 stars (rather generously perhaps) because when assembled looks like a good piece of kit and on returning had no hassles. They really should update their product description.

Unfortunately within a year the coupling closest to the monitor has got loose so you cannot position the monitor. Unlike the rest of joints, this one isnt adjustable for tightness and is riveted so there is no wat to tighten it with a screwdriver/alan key etc. I would not buy again.

works verywell

Por el precio que pagué se me hizo justo. Es resistente y sus materiales son de calidad decente. El sistema de montaje funciona bien, en mi caso decidí fijarlo a un mueble y hasta ahora ha soportado bien el monitor. Quizá el único detalle que le veo es que el brazo que tiene el resorte a veces se sube solito o no baja bien (es ajustable). A mi parecer está diseñado para monitores de 24" que son más pesados que el de 21.5" que le puse. Fuera de ese detalle, funciona de maravilla.
