Adjustable 4 Monitor Stand - Clamp-On Quad VESA Mount for 13-32" LCD/LED Screens | Perfect for Multi-Tasking & Gaming Setup

So because all reviews for all flavors of this product are mixed together (number of arms, freestanding/grommet/C-clamp, etc.) I'm going to specify at the outset that I have the 4-arm C-clamp mount.I started with two monitors for my PC and consolidated my entertainment onto this desk, so I added a third monitor with an HDMI switch for my consoles and Roku. This was already taxing my available space since three monitors don't really fit all in a row on this desk, ending up blocking off a lot of space that went unused on the desk surface. Then I got a second PC with another display and I was officially out of room. I had a monitor on a TV tray in front of my filing cabinet.Generally I trust freestanding more than a C clamp given that the strength of the bolt is basically all that's holding your stuff up so the freestanding base just *feels* safer, especially given that most of us have fiberboard desks made of wood shavings and glue. It was unlikely that I would have the requisite space to fit the freestanding base however, so I decided to go with the C-clamp. I didn't see any "fell apart like a Chinese motorcycle and now I have 4 broken monitors" reviews, so I felt confident enough in it.Two of my monitors already had VESA brackets on them but it seems like each mount has their own version of what's supposed to be standard mounting hardware. The brackets from my old stand were not wide enough to fit the new mount, so it's only a small annoyance I guess. Quick swap of hardware before attaching the other two plates to the other two monitors, done.So after about five minutes of figuring the finer points out on my own -- since the instructions are pretty bare-bones and don't even cover things like attaching the upper half of the center pole -- I've got the arms attached loosely and the two halves of the vertical pole put together. It's already leaning a degree or two forward. Given the weight of the mount itself it's not surprising I guess, but it makes me nervous for when I actually put displays on it.So the bottom half seems pretty stable. I put one monitor on the left side and walked away for a good 35 seconds before coming back with the second monitor and putting that on, so it's got that going for it. I was not willing to take that chance on the upper ones though, so I asked a friend to mount one at the same time I did the other.The thing has a lean of about 4.5 degrees now with 30 pounds of weight on it, which I have to admit makes me a little nervous given that physics multiples weight the further away from the center it gets. It has yet to lean any further than that, so hopefully it'll just stay put. I'll be honest and say that this mount is getting 1 star and a scathing review edit if it fails because it's gonna break at least $2000 worth of stuff in the calamity.In all, I love it. I'm able to be extremely lazy on my days off from work and don't even need to rotate my chair to get at all the entertainment I want.Some suggestions to go along with this product.
