Great Product

I bought my MI-2781 a month ago, love it and recommend it to my fellow engineers working from home. It is a great product for the price. I was concerned the weight of my two 24" DELL monitors would make the free standing V base front heavy and front tipsy. This has not been an issue. The moment arm distance from the center of the vertical post to the front fulcrum line of the V base is about 8" and the center of mass of my 2 monitors is about 5.5". See my attached diagram. It would be helpful if the Mount-It website would include the 8" forward moment arm length in their diagram.
I did have an issue with the MI-2781A Installation Manual which I suspect is common for most Dell monitors. Step 5 of cannot be performed after step 4 because the VESA mount on the back of my Dell monitors is recessed about a quarter inch. In other words, it uses a carpenter's mortise and tenon joint. This is common to most of the Dell monitors I have used. After the VESA compatible plate is attached to the monitor per step 4, there is simply not enough clearance to perform step 5.
Instead, I had to do the following.
- undue step 4 (remove the plate from the back of my monitor),
- perform step 5 (attach the 2 plates to the arms),
- new step (lay both monitors face down on the floor),
- perform step 4 (attach the VESA compatible plates to the back of the two monitors),
- new step (lift and set the entire V-base assembly on my desk),
- then continue with installation step 6.
- undue step 4 (remove the plate from the back of my monitor),
- perform step 5 (attach the 2 plates to the arms),
- new step (lay both monitors face down on the floor),
- perform step 4 (attach the VESA compatible plates to the back of the two monitors),
- new step (lift and set the entire V-base assembly on my desk),
- then continue with installation step 6.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A really neat product! I’ve purchased the silver, model with clamp and have it affixed to a metal side table that’s barely 1/16”. It cleanly hides monitor cords and was pretty straightforward to put together. It’s also very sturdy. The only down side is that I thought the arms would have been a bit less chunky. However I see the girth is necessary to store the cords. It does what it’s supposed to so I’ll zip my lip and enjoy it.

Works perfect with 32 monitor

Fantastic arm mount. Have a 32 LG 4K monitor weighing almost 20 pounds on it. Install was easy with the clamp but I decided to use the grommet for extra security. Adjustments to arm are easy. Don't listen to the other reviewers that say it won't hold their monitor up... they didn't take the time to adjust it.

I love this product

I love this product! I have the Asus PG348Q which is a big 34\ ultrawide monitor and this desk mount works perfectly. Saves a lot of room on my desk which actually allows me to use my desk again. Very easy to set up and move around. Cable management is good. Arm is strong and provides plenty of weight support for the monitor."

I wish the last
Section of arm behind the monitor was adjustable in length. The monitor comes out too far from the back of the desk. This is even after rotating the bottom outward. But it will work for me for now.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's an ok arm. Maybe too expensive for what it offers.

Not the best arm for the price. Over all it works but vertical tilt is very bad. To tilt down it's effortless but to tilt up, it very hard,

works great as advertised

works great as advertised... however, even at its tightest, still seems like monitor can slip.... HOWEVER, after using for almost a year, monitor hasn't slipped or sloped or anything.

Its pretty good

Exactly what I needed, very good quality build parts, it let's you adjust the screens with many angle approaches, it even has a height adjustment for every screen mount so if your screens have a height difference due to a bigger frame or mount point you can adjust them all still to be the same height ( gives you an inch +/- of margin to play with) - not that common on these products.Note that if you plan not to attach the center pole to the table and simply place it as is with the base plate, you will limit yourself to the angle of how much you can turn the side monitors curved to your direction since the center-weight-point will be moved further then the base playe and it will fall forward. In my pictures you can see the maximum angle to curve without mounting the pole to the table.
