Pros: Solid construction, almost entirely metal (plastic parts include pieces such as the cable holder, screw knobs, etc), endlessly adjustable (vertical, horizontal, screen tilt, etc) and steady as a rockCons: Can be difficult to attach monitors without an extra set of hands.Solid construction, almost entirely metal (plastic parts include pieces such as the cable holder, screw knobs, etc), endlessly adjustable (vertical, horizontal, screen tilt, etc) and steady as a rock Can be difficult to attach monitors without an extra set of hands. Regarding the vertical adjustment: As some have said, it could be higher, but I found the height to be perfect near the upper end of range (which is probably true for most people). I'd imagine they thought that satisfying the relatively few people who needed their screens higher wasn't worth the majority of their customers having excess pipe sticking out above their monitors.Maybe their next generation of this stand will include an optional extention.

This stand was easy to assemble and really cleaned up my desk. Also made workstation more ergonomic. Handles two 24 monitors with ease. Would recommend highly to anyone needing to unclutter the desktop.

I Have 2 22 Inches ViewSonic displays and they fit perfect in this stand. Great quality I m super happy with this purchase.

Love the ease of ordering, the price of free shipping and the look of two monitors on my desks!

This thing is easy to put together, its light weight but sturdy. I also like the fact that it has a small footprint that does not take up much desk space.

I have a 19 inch wide screen and 22 inch wide screen monitor on this. It took me about 10 minutes to assemble, and I had NO problems putting it together. It weighs about 5 pounds without the monitors. I do recommend laying the monitors flat, installing the plates on the back, then laying the stand down over them to add the monitors. Get a second person to help you stand them up - they're bulky once they're on the stand.They adjust easily for side to side - vertical adjustment is a bit trickier as you have to adjust the ring around the column first, and then each of the arms. It's a safety thing, but once you have this where you want it you'll probably never need to adjust it again.This item does ship from the manufacturer directly, but I did receive it within the next business day promise.

Pros: Gets the job done and makes some space on the desk.I got two ASUS VH222H Black 21.5" at the time with it and it holds them just fine. I keep one in landscape and one in portrait orientation.Cons: Vertical height adjustment is difficult once you have it all setup.Gets the job done and makes some space on the desk.I got two ASUS VH222H Black 21.5" at the time with it and it holds them just fine.

Pros: Steady, feels secure, hold a lot of weight with no problems, looks awesome. Can fit full 24" wide screens. Easy to install by yourself. Wire guide thingy holds all cables so you dont see them under the monitor.Cons: Had trouble getting the monitors to line up perfectly on height. Finally realized one was pivoted slightly for the portrait mode and it leveled properly.Steady, feels secure, hold a lot of weight with no problems, looks awesome. Can fit full 24" wide screens.

Finally realized one was pivoted slightly for the portrait mode and it leveled properly. I was so excited to put my new 24 inch viewsonics on it that i didn't read the instructions and put the silver ring in the wrong spot. i also tried to mount it backwards. Take your time and read the instructions and this stand will work great. Looks awesome, almost like my monitors are floating. I had no idea how huge 24" actually is. This is the ultimate stand for anyone who wants and awesome looking desk with dual monitor set up. Now during gaming i can display temps, cpu usage and other hardware stats on the right monitor while gaming in supper high hd on the left. for games that support dual monitor this setup even looks more boss. (then i need to rely on my g19 for hardware stats)

Pros: Easy assembly, simple non-obtrusive base. Looks like it would tip easy, but it is extremely well planted. I have two 21-inch monitors on there and it seems like it could hold bigger without much difficulty.Cons: Wish there was about an inch more of upward adjustability, but it's not that big of a deal.Easy assembly, simple non-obtrusive base.

Pros: It's a nice, solid stand that, in my case, holds 2 23-inch monitors side by side. It was easy to set up and adjust. Now I just leave it alone.Cons: None.It's a nice, solid stand that, in my case, holds 2 23-inch monitors side by side. It was easy to set up and adjust. Now I just leave it alone. None. I'm using this to hold two Acer P235H monitors, each of which have particular viewing sweet spots. If you dont' get the viewing angles just right, the image degrades. That said, it was easy to position both these monitors on this stand so that I get a great vewing angle on each screen.

Pros: Solid construction, highly adjustable, clean lookCons: The tension spring that controls tilt adjustment doesn't handle heavy monitors. Should include a tilt lock.Solid construction, highly adjustable, clean look The tension spring that controls tilt adjustment doesn't handle heavy monitors. Should include a tilt lock. I purchased this stand to use with 2 Samsung T240HD wide screen 24" monitors. These monitors require a vesa adapter on the back which mounts the monitor a little further out from the back and as a result increases the leverage on the mount pivots. Unfortunately that leverage combined with the heavy monitors simply overwhelms the spring that controls tilt and as a result the monitors would simply tilt down all the way. I had to disassemble the tilt pivot assembly and drill in new stop screws at the level point to make it work for me. I can't fault the stand too much as this is a result of having to use adapters, but I question how stable the tilt would be even with direct vesa mounts for these screens. Having a screw mechanism to control/lock the tilt would be superior to the spring in my opinion.

Pros: So far this thing is Great. I have had it for a week and I put 2x 21.5 inch monitors on it and it's incredibly stable. I followed the sugestion of one of the posts below about puting the monitors on the ground to attach them to the stand and it worked great. No second person needed.Cons: The only thing bad I have to say about this stand so far is that there is a slightly noticable droop/sag on one side from which I can only assume is from the way it's all put together. I have tightened all of the bolts as tight as I can and it's still there. I knocked off only one egg for this as it is still a great product and I am just picky about this sort of thing.So far this thing is Great.

One thing to remember about this mount/stand is that it only has (i think) 10 degree's of motion to setup your monitors so if you get the largest 24 in monitors that it will support then you might (MIGHT) have a problem putting them in a way that you will enjoy. Might sag more too with the extra weight.

Great stand. Quality construction and easy to setup. Highly recommended.

Pros: The Planar dual monitor stand is a well-designed, sturdily-constructed piece of hardware. Made from black steel, the monitor stand is rigid and unyielding. The monitor stand is seemingly infinitely customizable, with rotate (90 deg), swivel (+- 20 deg), tilt (+- 15 deg), and height adjust (height above desk varies from ~1" to ~8" with my 22" monitors) options. There is also quite a bit of room for adjustment for depth (distance from face with stand stationary). The engineers put a good bit of thought into making assembly and adjustment as easy as possible. It comes with a cable management clip that I found quite useful after I tied a zip tie around It holds my twin 22" monitors with ease.Cons: The cable management clip is not entirely useful, but I won't deduct an egg for it. I found my cables slipping out, so I tied a zip tie around the main column to restrain their movement.The Planar dual monitor stand is a well-designed, sturdily-constructed piece of hardware.
