3.0 out of 5 stars Minimal vertical travel, December 18, 2004

This review is from: Moview MV17DC Elite LCD Monitor Arm For 18"x21" Flat Panel (Personal Computers)

This unit is great and does everything is supposed to do except the 10 inches vertical travel. Mine moves up one or two inches upward but that's it. The vertical travel is nothing like the Macromedia flash example here: http://www.themoview.com/products/elite.html

Addendum Jan/03/05
It was a defective arm. Moview promptly replaced it with a new one. If I could, I'd change the rating to 5

I ordered 2 of these, realizing they would have limited adjustment range - other reviews are correct in that they are very limited in their travel. What prompts my one star rating and subsequent return of my order is that they will not hold their rated weight. This model is supposed to hold a 25 lb. monitor; it failed miserably at attempting to hold my 23 lb. iMac. There is no tension adjustment (already as tight as it would go) and the computer just flopped forward. With a light monitor, I'm sure it would be fine, but don't expect even close to the stated 25 lb. rating.

The way this works: A rigid curved upright section is monuted on a clamp base; the upright rotates 360 degrees. A flexible metal tubing section continues to a universal joint. The flexible section twists about 90 degrees in either direction. The mounting plate has slots for screws to mount the monitor.

I found one of the universal joints is too tight, the other was too loose; they could probably be adjusted. The flexible section is quite stiff. Vertical adjustment is minimal and I was concerned that I would break the monitor case when I repositioned the monitor. I bought this because I have 2 positions I routinely have to change between. I've decided to return it; I purchased an Ergotron Neo-Flex NF08LD1S (Mfr. Part #: 45-185-194) which cost $10 less and is easier to work with. I'm using a viewsonic 20.1" widescreen monitor and I'm happy with it so far.
