Nice product

Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2020

Unit seems to be well designed and well built. Assembly is straightforward and fairly quick and easy. Has a solid feel and the strut adjustments work well.
One potential negative (or positive) to consider...unless you have super large monitors the design of the stand will cause your monitors to hang forward over your desk rather than at the back of it. When I had my screens on stands I placed them all the way back on my desk, with this unit about 1/3 of my desk is behind the monitors if I place them close to eye level. Not a huge deal for me since they are elevated and free up desk space...but do be aware the screens will be closer to your eyes than you are probably used to.

It was great until it wasn't

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2021

Loved this thing until suddenly the screens won't stay upright. I never even move them so It's not like it got worn out. Really frustrating.

Greatness in a dual-monitor stand for a productivity PC

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2020

Verified Purchase

I looked at a bunch of reviews and am glad I spent the extra money for this display stand. I like it a lot so far. It has only been 24 hours since installation, so I will update with any new findings.
* Use case: Working from home; not used for gaming.
* I am 6 ft tall; desktop height is 29.25 inches; chair seat height is 20 inches; eye height 50.5 inches.
* Monitors: Two Acer CB242Y bir monitors--23.8 inch with 16:9 aspect ratio.
* Mounts solidly on a 3/4 inch desktop overhang. 1 inch would be better, but 3/4 inch works.
* Desk overhang thickness is 1.25 inches.
* Instructions are not great, but there is enough info so you can figure it out.
* Seems like a quality design and build.
* Very unobtrusive footprint.
* Rotation, angle, and position adjustments are easy and smooth.
* Monitors stay in position.
* The cable management stuff is awkward, but not heinous for me.
* I can easily have one monitor in landscape orientation and the other in portrait orientation.

Very convenient for work

I installed dual screens for work and bought these arms to hold the monitors. They work wonderfully. It is easy to move them around, turn them sideways, or move them up and down. They always hold the new position perfectly. I see that they are mostly sold to gamers, but I find them extremely useful for work. I move them when I move my desk up and down (I have a stand/sit desk), when the sun shines on them during a certain period of the day, or to show something to my co-worker who sits several feet away but can see my desk. I found them very easy to install and they are very stable. Would highly recommend them.

Wish I could give 4.75 stars.

I have had these for 3 1/2 weeks and exceptionally happy with my drunken impulse purchase.
The cheeky instructions worried me a tad. As instructed, I did not "allow children to feed on contents...." and no children were harmed during assembly. Yay me! But generally the instructions were clear and accurate, assembly was very easy. (Note:loosen the cable guides prior to installing, just easier imo.)
The mount onto the desk is very solid and loved the clamping mechanism.
With two older 24" monitors, not thin and not light, the movement of the arms is fluid and holds positions without sag or wobble.
The "ball-joint" between the VESA mount and arms worried me the most. The dual monitor arms ("cheaper"@ <$50) I purchased previously had issues with the monitors....nodding off. The semihemispherical mount ("ball-joint"?) on these allow me to adjust the tilt/lean/rotation easily, without fighting it, and the monitors hold there position solidly. Very happy.
As for the finish and appearance? they looked great when I installed them, haven't really noticed them since, except for the fact that my monitors are hovering like radiant angels.
The only issue I have had thus far is adjusting the tension of the "ball-joint". This requires removing the monitor from the arm. This was a PITA, yet was worth the trouble. Since mounting the monitors, the joint has been solid, monitors move easily, and no adjustments necessary. All other joints are easily reachable, and adjustments are easy.
Wish I could give 4.75 stars. Its not perfect, but exceeded expectations and happy I got it.

Premium Monitor Stand

Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2019

This is a great stand that definitely feels premium. This monitor stand was a great stand to go with. I have tried a few other similarly priced monitor stands and this one appears to be the best looking and most maneuverable for it's price point. It was fairly simple to setup and came with instructions that were simple and easy to follow. I really appreciate the smooth movement and configuration to position the monitors correctly. Other monitor stands often require you to keep loosening and tightening bolts in order to find the best position. This monitor stand allows you to set the position easily using the gas springs. It was definitely a lot nicer to tinker with to find the perfect position. I'll definitely be going with Echogear stands in the future.

Replaced my previous mount. 5/5

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2018

Verified Purchase

Overall, the product is very good and has kept my monitors stable so far. The packaging was very neat and everything was properly labeled. Instruction manual was very simple to understand with a lot of visuals.

The only slight issue I had was the adjustable part of the mount that attaches to the monitor. In order to adjust the swivel part of this arm, you have to have your monitor detached because it's right behind where the monitor would be. By default, mine was very sensitive to movements and a slight tap would make my monitor rotate.

I am currently using a 27" s2716DGR Dell monitor and an UGEE 2150. The UGEE monitor is not a gaming monitor, but ECHOGEAR provided schematics with measurements on their home website that allowed me to measure the monitor and determine that it would fit the mount which was nice.

Exceeded expectations

Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2019

Verified Purchase

Held up my two ASUS MG279Qs which are 16 lbs each! Quality of the material is sturdy and durable. There was no drooping once tension was adjusted after fully assembled. I think adding some sort of cable management to the main mount so that all wires appeared neatly bundled behind the mount would be a nice addition

Assembly was mostly easy to understand. The first few pages of the instructions contain reference numbers to the parts needed per "Level" of assembly. On page 11, there is an error in which type of screw to use depending on the shape of the back of the monitor. It erroneously references the screws needed as part #9 alone or part #10 with spacers #11 or #12. On pages 12 and 14, it correctly references the screws as part #10 alone or part #11 with spacers #12 or #13.

Perfect for Varidesk ProPlus 30

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2019

Verified Purchase

I got this arm and it fits the Varidesk perfectly. Unlike the other arms, the clamp is adjusted from the top so it does not have the additional knob that blocked me from setting the Varidesk at the lowest position (flat at sitting height).
It is not too heavy (even with the two 27” monitors) When my back is in spasm and I want to work standing up, I am able to lift the desk without a struggle. This is much more affordable than the arm Varidesk supplies, it was easy to install (I did it all by myself, even the monitors) and it seems to be very sturdy. Time will tell how sturdy, but so far I love it

Good but not perfect

Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2020

In one of the reviews here the reviewer stated that they wished they could give this 4.75 stars, I can understand that sentiment. I spent a long day looking over mounts available on Amazon and picked this one because of the mounting clamp. My desk at work is extremely large and heavy, my employer picked out the desk and installed it in our newly constructed offices before I moved in. Due to this I had a section of the desk almost right up next to the wall and was unable to move it. As a result of this I was limited on what mount I could use. This one worked because I was able to unscrew the L bracket and slide it down the cable grommet at the back of the desk to get the clamp to the underside of the desk, I could then slide the assembly horizontally to where I wanted it and then tighten it down. Once installed I did have to adjust the tension settings a bit but once everything was sorted it seems to work well. In fairness I have only had it on a week as of this review but I don't expect issues. So why not a perfect review? Well, it is complicated. I did not mind the tone in which the review was written but I can see where other reviewers took issue with it, I did have to take a moment when assembling to make sure the arms were installed in the right way and was actually second guessing myself while putting it together. My biggest beef was with the cable ties used to hold the arms down. It is rare that I will complain about a manufacturer going to proper methods to secure something for shipping but in this case I will. The cable ties that were used to hold the arms together for shipping are extremely thick and overkill for the purpose. My standard desk scissors could not cut through them, a pair of wire cutters took them out but once free the arms shot out and I cut my finger in the process. When attempting to cut them with scissors I butchered the black paint on the arm and left a nice nickel sized section where the silver metal is exposed. Some reinforced tape would have done the job to retain these arms for shipping and would be much easier to remove. Anyway, don't be like me, use gloves when you put this together, and more importantly when you take it out of the box.

Great for a specific type of desk / cubicle / access issue.

Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2019

Verified Purchase

We needed to be able to set up some monitors in a cubicle so that they no longer would sit on a computer and could be better positioned for the comfort of the user. The main issue though was limited access because the table did not have a hole for cable management or otherwise, and only about 1/2 inch behind it for any actual wiring or otherwise. These monitor arms, seem to be the only brand that has this very neat hook / clamp instead of the typical L plate on other monitor arms, which I have no idea if they can be taken apart for this specific situation but then you have to deal with the extra labor of kneeling down underneath the table to screw the L plate back in. So with this monitor arm, that clamp requires almost no effort, at worst, we had to unscrew the long screw until it came out to give the clamp enough length to be slipped in behind the table (it doesn't fall out, just slides out and there's a catch that keeps it ready for the screw to go back in) and then the rest of the work is all above the table, so you can focus just on the setup. So my only observation is that it would be nice if this specific type of monitor arm had a longer bottom arm, or that both arms articulated or were spring based for even more maneuverability and full adjustment. Also, maybe a quick release plate for the vesa mount onto the monitor, (is there a quick release plate vesa adapter?) so overall, quite excellent for our particular situation.
