Ergear Dual Monitor Stand Mount

Upon receiving this mount, I knew it was going to be a decent one just by its weight. And it definitely lived up to that first impression. Installation was mostly easy to figure out, though the instructions had very small diagrams and no text - still, there's only a few places things could go and it took about 30 minutes to install and configure, plus a few to do some cable management. All features except one are superb. It has integrated cable management trays that can fit about 3 cables ok (I have a displayport, usb, and power cable running through each). The overall flexibility of the mount is very good, and I was able to really customize my monitors' position. I'm not worried about the hydraulics holding up. The included USB is just extension cables, which is nice to not have the additional electronics that a hub would have. I like having two ports with easier access than behind my monitors or on my PC. As mentioned, it does have one flaw, and that is the up/down tilt. While all other joints are heavier metal and pivots, the up/down joint is a simple plastic piece and some washers that does not feel super rugged. No matter how tight I key the tension, the monitors naturally tilt downward due to weight. All other tension adjustment in the mount was great - I could tell they were keeping the monitors stable and secure. I do worry about the up-down joint being so feeble; I expect if there's any long-term failure to this mount that will be it. Still, I eventually found a position that worked despite the tilt issues - a little higher than I'd like, but it does work for my situation. So, overall I don't regret my purchase. I just wish they could add a bit more sturdiness to the part that actually connects the monitor to the mount, and make it so tilt was better adjustable. This is the sole reason this thing lost two stars for me, and it'd be an easy 5 stars if this part of it actually worked. I'm going to try to work with it a bit more to see if I can get it to better hold the weight, and will update this review if I'm able to get it working better.
