Review on πŸ–₯️ NB North Bayou F80 Full Motion Swivel Gas Spring Monitor Desk Mount Stand for 17-30'' Monitors (4.4lbs-19.8lbs) - Computer Monitor Stand by Mark Toth

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Excellent quality, especially for an office or desktop setup - a minor issue with frequent base rotation.

Great quality for such a low price (less than $40). Clip or grommet attachment options, it was great to try a clip before deciding to drill holes in my furniture to make the attachment permanent and most stable. frequent turns. Loosening causes the monitor to shake a lot when you move it, and it gets a little intimidating because you're not sure if it's going to fully detach and fall over. Frequent turning means turning back and forth about 180 degrees several times a day. It probably won't be noticeable in an office/desktop environment. I fixed this by removing the base and tightening the torque adjuster in the base, but it will eventually loosen again. And it's a tall order to dismantle everything to get into the base. I think I found a safer solution by lubricating the torque adjustment screw (in the base) with WD40 to keep it from catching on the weight of the monitor and loosening when the arm is rotated. What happened was that the monitor's weight caught on the torque screw and loosened it as it turned. So lubricate between the washer and the screw head so that it doesn't catch on the screw and turns just as easily. We use these mounting arms on our sofa's side tables. In this way we can play powerful PC games and other interesting PC games while being together as a family.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Can I add something?
