I'm more of a set and forget type when it comes to my monitor, so I looked at these types of mounts rather than fully adjustable ones. I use it on my desktop attached to a 1.25 inch piece of wood. I use it to support my 27 inch Dell 4k monitor. The mount doesn't look very good in the photos, but in person it's strong and of high quality. The monitor gives me neck pain. I have one hand on top of the bar and it's strong. Installation: easy to do by yourself. There's a channel to insert a VESA mount so you can easily take the monitor with you between settings. I use my monitor as a USB hub so I have a lot of cables going back and forth and I was able to plug everything into a cable management system. The clamp is monstrous and I didn't have to drill a hole in my beautiful hardwood countertop. There is a thin layer of padding on the inside of the clamp that rests on the table. I want the part that touches the bottom of the table to have this padding as well. Durability: There was acceptable monitor shake initially, but after I re-tightened all the screws, the vibration was much less. ble. The movement only occurs when I adjust the height of my sit/stand desk and when I actually bump into the desk. Adjustability: You can actually move with this stand. The monitor can be rotated sideways. You can also maneuver your hand even after tightening the screws. You CANNOT adjust the height or tilt of the monitor when it is locked.
