VIVO Triple Pneumatic Monitor Mount, STAND-V300G

Pretty standard but great quality triple arm monitor mount. Clamp is sturdy. Left and Right arms have TONS of movement and length. The middle arm is rather fixed horizontally and diagonally but can be adjusted vertically. This is a reoccurring theme in most 3x arm monitor mounts though so no big deal. Once you get them setup, which the setup is easy, it looks great. I would recommend this and buy it again.

Product was well packaged. Good condition. Everything was there. Clear enough instructions. It’s an awkward setup in any situation by nature of the thing but once you understand the concept it’s no issue. Product is performing perfectly so far. I loved the easy cable management features and clips.

Not horrible quality, easy to setup and use.

I’m using it with a 34″ wide screen and 2×24″. I feel like I can (and likely will) utilize 27s instead of the 24s and be ok.

If you were like me and trying to figure out what the difference between this unit and the cheaper V103G model is (since they look identical), this model (V300G) has about 5″ more arm span, which was well worth it for me, as it was peace of mind the monitors would fit.

Overall happy with the purchase.

This was the 4th monitor arm I purchased. I have two 27″ curved monitors and a sit/stand desk. The 1st arm would not hold the monitors upright; the 2nd was one stationary position which worked fine when I sat but was too short when I stood; the 3rd arm would not level. All were cumbersome to assemble but fairly easy to install. This was assembled within about 15 minutes and installed less than 5 minutes. It allows for me to make minor variations to the height when I am sitting or standing and holds both monitors level and upright. I would recommend installing the arms higher on the bar so you have a full range to go up or down in the positioning of the monitors. I had originally installed them lower but found they were not high enough when standing. Moved the arms up on the bar and now I can easily move the monitors up and down based on sitting or standing position. Very pleased with this arm.

Product works perfectly, and despite reading a review that claimed there was no “locking mechanism”, I was able to set up all 3 monitors to be hanging low just above the desk, locked in place.

The tension mechanism on both of the arms is confusing, but basically you twist one way first then lower it to where you want, then twist back the other way until the arms stop going up.

Once you figure that out, you can set the monitors perfectly exactly how you want, which makes them especially great for gaming.

TL;DR version: I’m impressed. Rather fiddly to set up, with unclear instructions (video helped a bit), but it does everything I want it to do. Suboptimal management (cables need to run behind central pole), so came up with a workaround. Really sturdy – I’ve no concerns it will fall. Overall I’d say a 9.9 out of 10 but some room for improvement.

I had very specific requirements. The stand had to have small leg-print (previous solution took up half the desk). The stand had to be very sturdy (safety top priority). The stand had to be clamped only (no drilling through my desk please). The stand had to be able to cope with a slightly tapered desk edge (so the clamps needed to be inset by an inch). The stand had to position three 24″ (HP) monitors at the correct height (top edge equal to my eyes) and preferred angles (slightly angled inwards).

I looked at every stand on the market (Amazon sells around 10 potentially viable options) and narrowed it down to this one and two others (HUANUO and BONTEC, with neither of which I was familiar, but nor had I heard of Vivo).

Being Amazon, it arrived next day, which is always exciting. I unpacked the box and read, and reread several times, the rather poorly written instructions (hint: hire a decent technical writer). I eventually got the hang of it. It became apparent that for three 24″ screens, it’s not needed to use two of the arms (one on each side), but three. rather than five, were sufficient. In fact, with all five, the screens: (i) sat far too high on the desk; and (ii) had too acute an angle compared to what I needed. It was very fiddly getting them precisely into position but with micro turns of the allan keys, I was able to get it precisely into position, which looks amazing.

The cable management system is not great. Cables show behind the main pole. I’ve put them in a sheath and used cable ties, but a cleverer system would have been to make the central vertical pole hollow so cables could be threaded through it. But I’m being very picky on this – my workaround works.

The attached picture was taken before the last micromovements to level everything out out using spirit level. That took a couple of hours but worked well.

I have used quite a few monitor mounts over the past couple decades and I always go for budget mounts. At around $100, I would consider this a mid-priced mount, but extremely fair price for the pneumatic arms.

The assembly is by far the easiest of any multiple mount that I have installed in the past. Take your time and follow the simple directions, will take 30-60 minutes. After having my desk cleared off, it took about 30 minutes to install mine.

So far I really like the sturdiness. The pneumatic arms work extremely well, after properly adjusting the tensioners. Making all adjustments is fairly simple and easily reachable.

I am becoming a bit of a Vivo fan boy as of late. I now have their desk, cable management bag, under desk drawer, speaker stands with desk clamps and under desk pc mount. Everything is great quality at extremely affordable prices.
