Adjustable Height Phone & Tablet Stand - 360 Rotating Aluminum Mount for iPad Pro Air Mini, iPhone, Samsung, Kindle (4.7"-12.9")

The clamp has two places to choose from to install your arm. That was a surprise to me. I thought I'd read the whole advertised features list. The clamp and arm are both heavy and sturdy.That said, the arm is very difficult to bend. It's very stiff. That is not a complaint. I have a gooseneck stand for my phone and it's very floppy, easily bendable, but it doesn't stay in place. Not so with these gooseneck tablet holders. They do not move enough to cause concern. They will stay where you put them, IFF you consider gravity and the direction of the threads.What I mean is that it started to unscrew when I was trying to manipulate it. That could easily be fixed by installing it a different way.The surface that the unit is attached to must be very sturdy itself, else the clamp cannot be tightened enough to keep it from falling with the weight of the arm.These are not problems for me. I managed to resolve all issues by installing it somewhere else. They are things you may need to consider, however.I would purchase these again, in a heartbeat, if I hadn't already purchased 5, which are installed everywhere around the house and I still need more.

Okay, so I don't leave very many reviews on here, as there are already a lot. I buy a lot of stuff on Amazon and don't write here. However, this product is completely amazing! I don't buy game consoles anymore or a TV. I use my tablet for homework, TV, and to play cod mobile. I used earthing to get my tablet set up and nothing worked good. This stand is amazing. I can put it on my headboard or on the coffee table just like the pics here. I can move it to make it perfect for me. Depending if I'm watching a TV or playing COD or firtbite. This stand is very durable. For 17 bucks it's to cheap. I would have honestly paid 50 for this. I'm going to order a second one for my phone as well now. Very sturdy, made very well. People who said on here it broke the part that holds the tablet, it's the metal ball join that needs to go in. Yes that part is not super hard or metal like the rest but it's also not cheap or flimsy. Just doing treat it like it's wall. Don't shave so hard or honestly I have no idea how people broke those. Its very well made. Takes about 30 seconds to put it together. Buy it. You will live it.

**UPDATE: 03/08/22**15 months and she is still holding up! Still as fit for duty as Day 1.**ORIGINAL REVIEW**I’m going to preface this review by stating that (with the exception of my sound system) I am going exceptional low budget, and willing to utilize very inexpensive/cheap price and quality products that, as long as they are taken care of nicely, will simply do the job. If my studio needs were more mobile, or under more dynamic or harsh conditions, I would be looking at the more expensive product lines offered out here on Amazon.With that, I chose this product To compare with it’s apparent Amazon competitor, the SHAWE brand. Turns out they are the exact same item, right down to the factory box and base barcode sticker. I chose to keep this one because the coupon purchase price ended up being cheaper.As Well, I also compared it to the gooseneck holders that have the more decorative plastic base look. Although not as pretty, this unit’s base is more utilitarian in appearance, but at least you know what is or is not going on when you’re clamping it to different surfaces.The main frame of the clamp feels and appears to be machined steel. overall it’s pretty sturdy. But I didn’t realize at first, but really appreciate now, is that there is a threaded hole on the top and side of this clamp, giving you two different directions you can send the gooseneck out of. It’s Achilles’ Heel, however, is the screw knob and the flat disc in the clamp assembly. Both do not feel anywhere near as sturdy as the rest of the construction: the screw knob actually feels like cheap plastic. Because it’s going to pretty much stay in one place, this will not be an issue for me. If I was going to be constantly changing locations, I might think twice about keeping it – or I would be mentally prepared to be changing locations very carefully – assuming that breakage of the knob could occur.For me this is also not an issue, as for my present office/studio set up I am going hyper cheap for my base set up. (In the photo, all lighting, tripods, and electronic supports - except The sound system - have run me under $100. Lots of cheap stuff, But it stays put and does the job for now.)In terms of the gooseneck itself - WA! Pardon the sexist overtone: but if you are a sissy-boy/girly-man/watered down latte drinking/only-go-to-the-beach-to-get-sand-kicked-in-your-face kind of guy, this may not be the device for you if you want to twist this gooseneck in anything other than the shape it came in. This thing is designed to stay in place once you get it somewhere, and it’s going to arm wrestle you as you try to bend it. To get it in the exact shape I wanted it, it took me about five minutes of mild wrangling.Part of that much time was because I did not want to put torque pressure on the thread screws that go into the holder, and I certainly didn’t want to apply any twisting pressure to the plastic ball and Cap That attach to the holder for your electronic device. Bad end is also fairly inexpensive plastic. As long as you know what you’re getting, and treat it with care, I could definitely see where this thing would last quite a bit. If you’re going to beat up on it a lot, buy a second one because you’re gonna need it pretty soon.One downside to the gooseneck is that as you pick your final location, you’ll need to potentially check to see if neck is going to relax at all. If you look at my photo, you’ll see that my gooseneck comes horizontal out of the holder and then downward. As I tried to bring my iPad screen more forward from the wall it was obvious that the gooseneck wanted to rotate back. It took a little bit of physics, and some additional tweaking to get it so it would settle approximately where I wanted it.As I mentioned earlier, I’m setting up my initial live streaming projects intentionally on a teeny tiny budget. Thus I’m willing to accept cheaper or inferior quality level parts or products as long as they perform their job properly if treated with care. If your situation is going to be more on the ruffian side of things, I would Suggest you go with the mantra “you get what you pay for “and look at the higher priced gooseneck systems out here.

While the product functions as intended it has significant functional limitations and durability of the holder is questionable.Function: The mounting bracket is quite bulky with about 4" length and 2.5" width. It attaches to flex arm which has a 5" solid shaft. That leaves about 8-10" of non-flex length and when the transition is made to flex shaft it is quite rigid causing nearly half the length to act only as a perpendicular extension of the mounting location. It's hard to find mounting locations other than those depicted in photos from the maker.Durability: I'm an engineer with more that 20yrs. making automotive grade parts. Perhaps my expectations are a bit high but the holder shows 2 immediate warning signs. As it is extended to hold a 10" ipad you can hear the resonance of the spring system as it stretches. The sound is consistent with light grade spring material that would loose spring tension rather quickly say within 12-18 months of continuous use. Secondly, the arms that hold ipad in place are made of somewhat thin plastic with no internal support design or strengthening materials so as you pull the arms open for mounting you feel the walls of the arms compressing under your finger pressure. As all plastics degrade with time the poor design features and material selection will result in cracking.

Item is well built, and easy enough to assemble. Item price very competitive for what is supplied.Goose neck probably not as long as expected versus description. Not sure where they took their measurements from, as I would say the gooseneck component is probably only 60-70cm.

The product came with scratches on the holder right out of the box :/
