I can't believe there aren't that many reviews of this stand out there on the world wide web, so I'll make this longer than my usual reviews. I set it up with 3 23.6" VE247Hs, and while I was a little worried all 3 wouldn't fit because of their thicker bezels, there was plenty of room on the arms for 3 full size 24" monitors as advertised.For the price, you can't beat the value this triple monitor stand offers. It's cheaper by other options by a mile yet offers considerable adjustments at the price point (individual monitor head swivels, adjustable stand height, choice of movable or desk-secured base, accessories to mount on curved or flat back monitors, designed for simple cable management, and distance adjustment between each monitor along the arms). The only real feature that is missing compared to its more expensive competitors are hinged arms for those who prefer a tighter U-shaped surround setup.However, you do end up paying for what you get. The triple screw system used for each monitor plate makes it incredibly awkward to adjust the individual monitor heights. The connection between the mount plate and the swivel is a rectangular piece with one screw on the top and 2 at bottom of each side. The side screws hold the height in place while the top screw "sets" the height because it rests against a metal base inside the rectangular piece. This means you need to first loosen both side screws, then play around with the top screw, then re-tighten. To install the middle monitor, you actually need to put together this rectangular piece together...try finessing all that in a tight space between the arm attached to the heavy base and the back of the monitor...time consuming to say the least.Now I may just have received a dud, but when I tried to adjust the height on one of the side plates, where the height adjustment pieces are thankfully pre-assembled, the factory had tightened the side screws so much that I ended up stripping the head, and now I can't adjust the monitor height for one of my side monitors.I'd still recommend it though if you're looking for a budget triple monitor stand!
