Customer Reviews for Mount-It! - Single Monitor Adjustable Sit-Stand Workstation with Gas Spring Arm and Keyboard Tray - Silver

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is gigantic. I was imagining a lower profile with more flexibility. We ended up modifying it by removing the black tray and tucking the keyboard back further, this gained us some space and range. It is very sturdy and heavy duty, will probably last forever!

What took me so long to get this?
on May 30, 2018
Posted by: Craig MacArthur Nelson
In need of a standing desk to help with some chronic fascia pain in my side that makes it very uncomfortable to sit for very long, I looked everywhere and found this to be the best and the only one of its kind among any sit-stand converter available. Not only is the entire product very sturdy and the hydraulic lift feature very helpful, but the dual monitor mounts are also terrific and have no trouble accommodating my 27-inch and 24-inch displays. The separate shelf in-between the monitor mounts and keyboard shelf is also an excellent place to keep remotes, food and drink, glasses, etc. Also, I was especially pleased that the kit wasn't too heavy to keep mounted on my mostly-glass desk.What made this the best and only option for me, though, was the vertical placement of the keyboard and mouse tray lower than the height of the desk mount when in the sitting position. My desk is a bit higher than normal, and this is one of the few products that offered this necessary design feature for my situation (something one would expect to be more common). Curiously, many other mount kits require the keyboard and mouse to be placed either on the desk itself or higher than it. Why anyone would want to reach up to use the keyboard is a mystery to me.One small disadvantage (if it can be called that) is the horizontal placement of the keyboard tray, which is based on the depth of the entire assembly. When in the sitting or standing position, this kit places the tray a few feet out from the edge of my desk. Thankfully I have enough room in my office to accommodate this, but this may not be true for everyone. If in doubt, watch the video (among the other images) and observe the transition between the sit and stand position, and take note of the positioning of the user and the tray in relation to the desk itself.A minor note that I've also found that the assembly can be somewhat heavy to lift into the standing position, even with the aid of the hydraulics. It isn't difficult for me but I wonder if others may find it more burdensome.As far as installation, the entire setup was quite straightforward and took me 2.5 hours. One recommendation I could give one that wasn't in the manual would be to place the mounting arm onto the back of the desk as soon as this part has been assembled (early in the process): otherwise, the entire assembly will be too large and unwieldy to maneuver into position

Good system.

Good system...I like it for the price point. Has some \bounce to it as it extends out quite a way. Great starter system which allows me to try the \"stand up\" desk concept and keeps my desk clear. If the \"bounce\" was gone

Yes, but...

Was not sure if my 2 monitors would fit so I asked. Got response that they would. WRONG. The mounting block for each monitor stopped the monitor from using the last half inch or so on each side of the mounting bar slot. That much/little made a difference. I had to remove that much from the slot in the metal crossbar for my monitors to fit. Tough decision between sending it back or modifying it; liking the looks of it and having a Dremel swayed it. NOT happy about having to do that, but it was the only way if I were to keep what looked like an otherwise good product..3 stars primarily because when the customer takes the trouble to ask AND provides a link to the monitors' specs, an accurate and truthful response is expected.I have since rotated the mount blocks so I can get horizontal \tilt\" and it works nicely. Both monitors are canted slightly toward the middle and there is no slop or vertical movement. I think a better design would be to have a slight bow in the crossarm to begin with

Not perfect, but a good deal to be sure.

For the price, this is fantastic. The biggest shortfall I see is that the keyboard tray is NOT independently adjustable from the monitor in terms of depth. You can move the monitor up & down from the keyboard tray, but the depth (i.e. how far in front of your face the monitor is) is not adjustable. I'm thinking of some fairly simple modifications I could make to the tray with a drill and some bolts to extend 4-6\ more inches

Make your work day better

This is the perfect stand up desk. I noticed in my research of other desks that the keyboard sat higher on the regular desktop. With this desk you can lower the keyboard to you all of you desire as it extends out in front of the desk it is connected to. It was very easy to install and the ease of lifting and lowering your desk is amazing. It has made my work day better.
