It was easy to put together, easier than I thought. I had to go with the stand verses the desk mount, pole through a hole in the desk, as my desk top is glass. I secured it with a small clamp, holding the base to the desk, solid. The three screens were balanced but any small jarring would make the stand wobble towards me. Better safe than sorry. They do recommend the pole mount, but glad for the options. Other than that, it works like a champ. Couldn't be happier.
