• Amazing clamp mechanism with the bolt on the top used to tighten the otherwise flat and padded C-clamp which made installation much simpler for me, as I needed to cut a slot in my desk to do the clamp. Having that be flat instead of bulky was great. A+ design, it was one of the major reasons I picked EVEO!
• Arms are sturdy and all the metal is thick and high quality. Great powder coat. Overall very high quality fit and finish with good attention to detail.
• Love the big sturdy tool for tightening the bolt for the clamp. I wish it had been an all-in-one tool that handled every bolt or screw on the entire unit for simplicity, but I still loved the size and quality of the tool and the slot to keep it on the back of the base so I don’t lose it. I’d also have liked it painted black to blend in when slotted back there.
• Love the included Velcro ties!
• Love the thumb screws, on the VESA mounts!
The not as good:
• Cable management space in the lower arms could use a bit of improvement. I wish they had a little more space and the sliding mechanism, which inexpensive, reliable, and good looking doesn’t allow the smoothest interaction trying to add or remove cables especially if you have many of them. I think something could be done to improve this whether it’s adding a bit of depth to the plastic to give more interior space or redesigning it as a whole with a hinge or some other closing mechanism. Your stuff will still fit but with a bit of force.
• The cable management plastic piece on the upper arm comes off the arm too easily. I’d also like to see a second tie down for cables on the upper arm.
• The cable management plastic piece on the base slides out very easily. I expected it to clip in but it doesn’t seem to.
• I had to tighten the allen screws holding the VESA brackets to the plastic slides (the ones that say TOP with an arrow) because they came quite loose with a lot of play. I did like that they took the same wrench as the rotation lock mechanism set screws.
• The rotation lock mechanism is not great and even tightened down I can’t really get it to lock. I think this could use improvement, though it’s only a minor thing for me.
Overall it’s a 9/10 for me and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a sturdy monitor arm but doesn’t want to pay $300.
