I have been in the AV/IT Integration space for over 30 years.I found this unit easy to setup and use with my 32" Monitor. The gas-spring cylinder makes it easy to raise or lower the display. I like the ample 13" of height adjustment provided. I also found that the tension adjustment according to the weight of your monitor is very easy to manipulate. The VESA monitor mount, makes installation very easy. An added feature is the built-in cable management. Along with the detachable VESA panel, which makes it simple to attach and remove the monitor. This unit is perfect for the home office which struggles for desktop space.What is Included:1 - Spring Arm1 - VESA Monitor Mount1 - Grommet Base Plate1 - Grommet Plate1 - L Bracket1 - Desk Clamp1 - Hex Key Holder5 ... MoreI have been in the AV/IT Integration space for over 30 years.I found this unit easy to setup and use with my 32" Monitor.

This is a great arm for mounting a monitor to a desk. The construction quality is excellent, everything fits together well and the mounting bracket is cleverly designed for either a wide range of desk thicknesses or grommet installation. The instructions cover all the install styles and can be confusing, so I recommend you read them through before beginning the installation. Cable management is great there are covers under both arms to make a clean install. The motion of the arm is smooth and only required a little adjustment for a 27 inch LCD. It makes my desk look so much cleaner now, and being able to move the monitor around is something I now realize I cannot do without!I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review

I have a built-in nook, like a cabinet, in my home office and wanted a better way for my Dell UltraSharp U2717D 27-inch monitor to be presented. With the factory stand in place, I couldn't slide my closed laptop back under the monitor or my external keyboard. The mounting surface appears to be plywood with a veneer, and I drilled a 3/8" hole in the back against the wall and off to one side. The grommet mount worked great in this position. I don't the monitor around on the arm much, but I can if I need to. It took quite a few turns to build up the tension sufficiently to hold the monitor in place, but it wasn't difficult at all. The VESA mount adapter fit great, and I re-used the screws that came with the monitor that secure the factory stand to it. It extends out ... MoreI have a built-in nook, like a cabinet, in my home office and wanted a better way for my Dell UltraSharp U2717D 27-inch monitor to be presented.

The VESA mount adapter fit great, and I re-used the screws that came with the monitor that secure the factory stand to it. It extends out toward you quite a bit farther than I realized, which is great! My cabinet nook type setup is about 22 inches deep, and even though the base is mounted right at the back, it still has plenty of reach to extend out quite a bit and let me easily rotate the monitor into portrait mode, adjust it to face left or right, or tilt it as appropriate. It would probably work well for a standing desk. For standard installations in an commercial office setting, one person should be able to complete the install fairly quickly on their own. Mine was more complex, and it was somewhat difficult reaching the back of the desk surface where it was mounted, but I have long arms and managed it.
