Very flexible use cases

I bought this to use on a large surface area portable desk and it worked great for that. However, when I was traveling, the desk required checked baggage, so I purchased a WorkEZ BEST laptop stand (pictured). After trying several positions (some of which didn't stay in place) I settled on the position shown in the picture, which allowed the external monitor to be pressed slightly against the back and sides of the laptop screen to achieve this prevent slide to the desktop and stabilizeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Low maintainability

Beware of the quick reset button, otherwise everything is fine.

The hand strap is excellent. No problem moving my tablet when installed. There's a ball socket that rotates the display between landscape and portrait. I want the ball itself to be properly anchored; The ball never leaves the hand, rather tending to rotate 360 degrees rather than the ball remaining stationary while the device uses the pan to rotate. The main reason I'm giving this 3 stars is the extremely responsive release button, which allows the tablet to be quickly detached from the mountโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Probably fits in this price range

While using it in landscape mode it fits my MS Surface 1796 which is 7.9 inches wide and 11.5 inches high. It's not designed to take serious abuse, but should last long enough if treated with a little care. It holds my Surface about 8.5 inches above the desktop (from the desktop to the bottom of the tablet) which is fine for my needs. It's still new, but looks like it can handle the tablet's weight (1.7 pounds) without sagging over time. I don't have a tablet case. The tablet holder staysโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

I was looking for something to hold my Samsung Galaxy Tab A SM-T580 while reading Kindle books. I was considering getting one of these pillow holders, but came across such a device while looking. I looked at all the items and decided on this one. Just when I was about to buy something, I noticed the half price if I bought the Revain Warehouse item. As far as I can tell it was just damaged packaging. All the parts needed were packed in sealed bags. Very good! The installation instructions areโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Something is wrong

Update: It's broken. no mount

Installation: I used the table clamp method to attach this mount to my Ikea desk. It didn't take more than 5-10 minutes and was a very simple process. Adjustments: I was able to easily tilt, rotate, etc. the mount into place. This mount starts to sag and falls off after 2-3 days of holding the Surface Pro 4 in your hands. The product description clearly advertises the Surface Pro 4 as a compatible device. I think lighter devices like Surface 3 or iPad Air should work just fine. Edit: Changed to

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Out of fashion

It does NOT hold ANY professional finish

The ball and cup design on the part that connects to the tray feels strong. The pivoting part at the end of the clamp seemed solid. Poorly designed and executed center socket head screw adjustment ruins the whole thing. It's not tight enough to hold the Surface Pro as advertised on the website, and the screw isn't strong enough not to come loose when you try to tighten it. In other cases, the rotating base next to the clip only rotates 270 degrees, so you can't rotate it directly behind theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine

I'm super excited about how cool this thing is

HELLO. Here's the thing - I made several different hands for the iPad and the iPhone. Never Android. If you're using an Android device, just remove it. Switch to iOS. Oh well. But I digress. This thing is STRONG AND DURABLE. That means it doesn't just hang down or have a problem handling my iPad Mini OR my iPad 5. Robust as hell. The grips are great too - there are a few notches to help with the angle. RANGE of MOTION is impressive. Obviously it's not IDEAL with ball joints or something likeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Expensive Insurance

New design irritates: computers and accessories

As you can see from the product photos and the instructions that come with it, it's supposed to have a screw to increase the lever tension so the hand can be held raised and moved and stays in place when you release it. The design has been changed and now they only have a hex screw in the hinge which my 10 inch Samsung tablet can't hold (I don't think it would even be possible to hold any surface with that design). However, when I contacted the company about the design change, I received noโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Only available in black

Not strong enough to hold Surface Pro 4

The product was easy to assemble, but the hand is not strong enough to hold the Surface Pro 4 on the table without sagging. I found a pinch bolt on the joint and tightened it to the point where it broke the bolt. Still sagging, but now a little slower - 9 ipm instead of 10 ipm. Very disappointed. I can't return it because I already threw away the packaging (my fault for unexamined belief in this product) so I put a folded piece of paper between the connection which physically breaks theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • It's OK!
Cons
  • The list will be long.
