The Wali Single Monitor Desk Mount works better than I expected.
First, the basics. The mount comes well packed and the instructions are very simple to understand. There is so little assembly required that the instructions are almost not needed. Assembly and installation can be done in less than ten minutes (not including cable management if you choose to use that feature). Adjusting everything is easy. Overall quality of the parts and the assembled product are quite good.
I have two monitors that I wanted to mount on a flat desktop. I needed to be able to get the monitors right next to each other and still have the desk flat against the wall. Most double monitor stands will not allow for this unless your monitors are the perfect size for the spread of the arms. The movable arms will usually flex toward the wall if you want the monitors to be edge-to-edge with each other. The result is the desk having to be offset from the wall to accommodate this. By using two single monitor stands, I am able to move the posts to positions that allow the arms to be extended in such a way that everything is flat with the wall.
The other frequently stated issue with most monitor stands is that the arms have hydraulic pistons and/or springs to deal with the weight of the attached monitors so they are easy to move up and down. These pistons and springs are often of poor quality and either fail quickly or don't work as expected from the get-go.
This is not a problem with the Wali Single Monitor Desk Mount. The arm is solidly attached to the 16" pole and only moves up and down by loosening the arm mounting and sliding the arm up or down on the pole. The arm, once set to the desired height, can be move forward, backward, side-to-side and tilt. This makes for a much sturdier setup with no pistons or springs. This system works very well, since I (and I think most people) have little need to move a monitor up or down after the initial installation.
I leave the included Allen wrench stuck in one of the vertical facing screws behind a monitor so that it is always handy but out of sight. If I do need to move the monitors up or down, the tool is right there.
I will buy two more of these for my wife's desk.
