It's ok but I wish it could be lowered

Thought this stand would fit my Philips 4K BDM4037U display. The original monitor stand that came with the kit was rigid and almost impossible to adjust, and it held the monitor higher than I wanted. I was excited about this stand and thought it would allow me to lower the monitor and have more positioning flexibility with the swing arm. Unfortunately, the VESA mounts on my monitor don't offer much greater drop distance relative to the position of my hand on the Mount It stand. Basically, I lowered the stand all the way down and ended up only about 1/2 inch lower than the original stand. I was hoping I could drop it lower. Of course, I got more flexibility in positioning the monitor. Another issue with this stand is that the VESA mounting point on the stand itself doesn't do a very good job of keeping the monitor from tipping forward. I had to squeeze a few business cards into the stand and monitor to keep it from tipping too much. I've seen other comments on this and can confirm I'm having the same issue. On the other hand, the clamp, lever and stand rod are very strong and sturdy. The desktop clamp holds the monitor stand with no play or wobble. The swingarm is also very durable. The weakest link is the toggle strap just behind the VESA mounting plate.
