VIVO Heavy Duty Ultrawide Monitor Arm, STAND-GT55

I really love the features that this arm comes with. I was looking to clear up a little more room on my desk and felt that the base of my monitor really took up a lot of real estate! I think that this arm holds my ultrawide monitor very well. Not only am I able to tilt it, but I’m also able to adjust it as I see fit which is a huge plus! I love how sturdy this is. I do not feel like my monitor will fall or is in danger of falling. I love the versatility that this stand offers and how easy it is to adjust. The installation process is pretty easy and straightforward if you’ve install these before. There are instructions you can reference for the correct installation of this arm! Overall, I’m very pleased and happy with this. I feel that my monitor is in good hands and I’m excited with the new found extra space on my desk!!

Bought it to replace a much more expensive Ergotron hx that couldn’t handle my new 57″ Samsung. While this arm seems less bulky, it CAN handle the weight from the bigger monitor while the Ergotron can’t even with the extra HD pivot.

Mine came with some minor cosmetic damage which is too bad, but it still functional. They might want to go over their QA

I would (and plan to) buy this product again for my second monitor. It was so easy to assemble and put on my desk because of the clamp adjustment in the top of the mount. It meant no bending down under the desk to tighten and secure the mount.
This held up really well to my overly heavy HP Omen curved ultrawide monitor.
It is a bit of a pain to adjust the tension on this monitor however. It took a lot of fine tuning and adjustments to get it just right to where I needed it. I wish the tension was tighter out of the box since this is designed for heavier duty monitors.
Otherwise, this is a fantastic purchase and I do plan to buy a second one with as easy as this one was to set up and fully use.

This monitor arm is a heavy-duty beast and I am delighted to have it.
Some assembly is required and the mini-tools are included. It goes together pretty easily and feels solid as a rock once assembled.
Be aware that the clamp is adjusted by inserting the large wrench tool into the base pipe. This is a very secure method, however if you opt to move the mount, this means you will need to remove the arm from the base to do so. Realistically this should be done anyway, but who hasn’t just gotten someone to hold up the monitor while they slide that base over a few inches. You’re not doing that with this mount.
Originally I was not sure if my desk could accommodate this mount, as there is a metal pole attached to the base of the desk, creating a surface that is not flat. This base worked flawlessly though, in this situation.
The cord holder on the arm is a bit different than other monitor arms I have seen. There is a clear plastic sleeve that is held on by a catch and one screw. Unfortunately this means having to unscrew the sleeve if you need to remove your cords for any reason, but it also means that they are secure once in place. Additionally, there is a cord guide that slides into the back of the base, keeping everything safe from getting pinched when you move the monitor around.
Something else to be aware of is, depending on the size of the monitor you are installing, there is a minimal clearance you can achieve. For example, I use a 32” monitor and it will only go as low as 3” from the desk. The design of the arm prohibits it from going any lower. This may differ with larger monitors.
Something exceptional about this mount is that it comes with a VESA kit that allows for any and all configurations up to 200×200. I may end up using this on my television at some point, so having this option and the capability to do this is an added bonus.
I can’t say enough good about this mount, it moves smoothly and feels much sturdier than any I have previously used.

Stand came in a cardboard box with proper packing to keep the stand safe while shipping. Comes with all the tools needed to assemble and I was able to do it myself in about 10mins that included mounting my 49″ ultrawide monitor. Stand is high quality with no sharp bits to get caught on and smooth corners, anodizing was nice deep black with no blotching. I had to adjust the spring tension for my monitor out of the box but it was easily done with the included long allen key once adjusted I was able to fully extend the arm without any sagging. Base is large and stable with a large clamping area keeping it in place.
Its on the pricy side If you don’t need the weight capacity(my 49″ ultrawide is about 25lbs) I would look else where, I got this to ensure my monitor never moves once I set it up, that’s the only reason why I got this instead of a cheaper arm.
