Smart, compact design gets the job done!
Size: 5 Ft, Color: White
I needed a compact power strip that I could wall mount behind my TV. Having both top and side outlets provided great flexibility to make sure the plugs didn't extend too far out and hit the back of the TV. And the plug of this strip is smartly angled so that it doesn't extrude far out of the wall outlet. If, like me, you're a DIYer who's a stickler for a clean, professional-looking installation, this power strip is essential.

good quality
Size: Width 16.5", Fully Adjustable Wall Mount, Style: Single
It is well built and does exactly as described. The only concern I have is the height adjustment. I have a 15 inch MacBook air and the wall mount is very touchy in the up position. My light weight MacBook has fallen to the down position on occasion. No damage but also not wanted action. But I would purchase again.

Just what I needed!!!
Size: Width 16.5", Fully Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Single, Size: Width 16.5", Fully Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Single
Just what I needed to improve my posture while working from home. Having a lower table was killing my back and neck.
Instructions pretty easy and clear for assembly, walks you through the steps to either use it for a laptop or for a monitor.
Really easy to adjust, excellent range of motion in all 3 axes, and 90% is metallic so the quality is superb, greatly recommended!
