Great mount for price. The upper part of the platform attaching to the desk is padded. The build quality is very sturdy easy to assemble and attach. It is visually pleasing and the range of motion and pivot/tilt is fantastic.Minor improvement could be made: the underside screws that attach to the desk could have padding on it to not scratch the wood of the desk. I used an old mouspad, cut to size as padding. And just more of a preference than an improvement: the vertical bar would be great to run wiring and cables through it, instead of along the backside of the bar for a cleaner look.
