VIVOAdapter VESA Mount Quick Release Bracket Kit, Stand Attachment and Wall Mount Removable VESA Plate for Easy LCD Monitor and TV Screen Mounting, Stand-VAD2

Work great, exceeded my expectation.

Works great. Sturdy. Easy to use. Purpose: easy attaching/removal of my gaming monitor to a custom vesa floor stand for non permanent usage on couch when main TV is otherwise occupied. Yes, my monitor had a recessed area. No, I did not use the included hardware on the monitor side of things. It does need extenders that work to counter the recess. Plan to probably buy your own monitor spacers if you have a recessed vesa panel. I had some spacers laying around. Otherwise, this fit the bill perfectly. Monitor comes off for storage and floor stand folds up for storage as well.

This mount can be VERY useful to solve unique mounting issues...with some caveats as others have noted....The GOOD to GREAT: Used this mount to fix an HP branded 27" monitor to a Dell-specific 27" stand. As you look at OEM-specific stands, they are generally similar, with the difference being mounting bolt patterns and spacing on the monitor mounting heads...not VESA, but kind-of similar. Typically these are flat metal plates with a variety of holes, tabs, and slots that line up with the specific quick-release mounting plate pattern on the back of their own screens.* I had an extra Dell 27" stand, and using a standard VESA plate as a pattern, I found 2 top holes that lined up with the top 2 holes of a 75mm VESA mount. (Yes you do need to remove the trim plate(s) and remove the center screws that hold the plate to the mounting base top/tilt plate.) I marked 2 additional spots from the 75mm spacing, and and then drilled out, now having 4 holes that matched VESA mount spacing, at 75mm.* Different vendor OEM plates may require some fudging with 75mm and/or 100mm spacing until you can find or create holes that allow fixing of the Vivo VESA mounting adapter "back" plate.* I took off the square plastic Dell trim from the top of the stand, but was able to leave the small circular trim that covers the top tilt plate and spring tension mechanism.* Before reassembling, I sprayed the back of the top plate with some leftover paint, so that it wasn't bare metal...not necessary, but a nicer look.The MEH to MAD: As others have noted there are some manufacturing or quality type issues. Mine was opposite of other reviewers, in that the mounting and VESA adpater plates were so tight I had to use a hammer to initially separate. I tried to bend the grooves and plate around to loosen the fit, but does not easily or reliably release to allow removing the monitor. Once I fully mounted, it essentially froze tight again. It's not the biggest issue, and better than being loose and wobbly, but I would like the option to remove the screen from the stand as intended. Not a deal breaker. But a little discouraging, and reason for 4-star review.This mount is soooo close, but does enough to make it a really useful option for some unusual mounting situations. It's definitely worth trying to see if it works for your needs.

These quick release mounts are great for when you need to be able to quickly change monitors. I will say that they do add quite a bit of slop to the mount, so if your bothered by your monitors not lining up exactly, these will be a problem. The mount is solid and I'm not concerned with the monitor falling off, just know that it's not going to be as tight as a solid mount.I've used this mount for multiple monitors and it's held up very well. Being able to quickly swap out monitors on the same vesa mount saved me a bunch of time and hassle.

Works as advertised

I have used this quick release mount on at least a half dozen different monitors and TVs (up to 32 inches), and their mounting brackets. This mount does what I expect it to do, it allows me to quickly move a screen from one mounting location to another with easy.If I could change anything I would ask that it be even more sturdy than it already is. I'd love to see the slots and mating tabs moved as far as possible to the outer edges of the brackets. As it is right now, the screens feel a BIT wobbly when moved and give the impression that the monitor can be rotated when, indeed, it can not. This is a good design but I think it could be made even better.Don't get me wrong, these do work very well and I will buy more if needed. The brackets fit well together, for most part, and even my 32 inch monitors feel as though they are secured solidly to the mounts I have them on. I've looked at other quick change mounts (there are a lot available) and this one seems to be the best so far.I certainly recommend these to anyone who is interested in a VESA quick change mount.

This adapter seems well-built and like it would do the job nicely. Unfortunately, it didn't fit my monitor.The problem is that my monitor's VESA mounting holes are inside of a recessed section cut out from the monitor's back panel. The border of the recession forms a ridge that gets in the way of the adapter's release lever. The adapter comes with spacers and a separate set of extra long screws just for this kind of thing, but now there's another problem: the screws are too long. As you can see from the second photo, there's a gap between the plate and the screw heads even when I've screwed them all the way in. The adapter's back plate ends up sliding around, rendering the adapter unusable.I assume that the extra long screws wouldn't be too long for some monitors, but that wasn't the case for mine. However, looking at the screws, it seems like they're way too long, about 2.5x the length of the spacers. I feel like that's way too long and would be a problem for many monitors other than my own. On the other hand, if you can mount the adapter flush against the monitor back plate without the spacers, I don't think you'd have any problems.
