The parts were like a puzzle from a parallel universe – strange, intriguing, and oddly satisfying to assemble. It's as if Apple and an alien inventor collaborated to create this gizmo.Installing it was like performing an arcane ritual. Step one: I put on my robe and wizard hat (not really, but it would have felt appropriate). Step two: I carefully removed the iMac's stand, bidding farewell to its desk-bound days.

I had to summon all my patience and a handful of cable clips to keep them in line.In the end, the VIVO Adapter VESA Mount Kit is like the wardrobe to Narnia – it opens up a world of possibilities. If you're ready to embrace the quirks, dance with the cables, and turn your iMac into a floating masterpiece, this kit will be your ticket to a truly enchanting computing experience. Just remember to keep a few cable clips and a sprinkle of pixie dust handy! 🧚‍♂️💻

Very easy to set up. Great value for money

Good

I bought this to put my 27 inch iMac on the wall and it honestly worked really great, there was a bit of process to connecting it to the wall mount, just a note if you are using a tv mount make sure that the mounting plate is not larger than 200mm in size or it won't fit on the back because of the angle that the mount attaches to the iMac.Other than that its a very simple and easy install, directions are kind of crap however its not too difficult to figure out. The trickiest part ws using the nylon leveling screws which I suggest installing first as they gave me a it of trouble, my holes were a bit threaded wrong so I used one of the other metal screws and kind of retapped the holes then pulled those out and installed the nylon screws which went it really easy after that.

Works, sturdy, easy set up

GREAT! GET ONE! This a great solution to the ergonomics of a monitor arm that we Mac users are pretty much denied. This device is well-made and nicely priced. It's rock-solid, and fit my 21,5" Mac like a glove after a five-minute, just-me install. Came with every bit of metric hardware needed, and then some!Don't be left out of all the benefits of a monitor arm. This is a quick and easy fix for those of us whose monitor height decisions are limited by Apple's wisdom and whether or not we can still find a phone book lying around. (Kids, ask your parents.)There are lots of great monitor arms out there (my choice: Jarvis arm by Fully.com, $99. Great range of motion, smooth movement, and solid feel).You'll see in the photos that I added a couple of adhesive foam dots to the back of the monitor where, in certain positions that you'd likely never use, the screws from the clamp could contact the back of the Mac. Maybe they could have included some nylon cap nuts?I still rate this Five Stars and 100%, on suitability for purpose, relative ease of installation, and build quality. Side by side with my factory VESA Mac, you see the lift point is about the same, so monitor arms work fine with this.A few years back, I had the forethought to special order a Mac with a VESA mount. But I've since upgraded that machine, which meant I had a more powerful Mac that was less ergonomic. Now I have the best of both worlds. Soooo worth the money!I did consider building something myself. For $20, this was a better solution. Just buy it.

My iMAC does not built in mounting ability so this special adapter was a great tool and worked perfectly

I have a 27" intel iMac. It is heavy (21 lbs/9.54 kg). The mount adapter worked great, it mounts the Mac to the monitor arm, but the top-heavy nature of the computer and swingy nature of the iMac stand means I cannot actually lift the iMac off the desk without it dangerously tilting forward due to the stand being basically a loose hinge. My monitor arm can support the weight of the iMac, but not with the swinging motion of the stand. I still think it does add value to my overall setup though. The assistance of my gas spring monitor mount makes moving the iMac around much easier, along with the added cable management that the monitor arm I have. Overall content with my purchase since it does help for general mobility and cable management, but the actual setup of mount I have along with the large iMac make floating the iMac impossible as I would have hoped to be able to do. Perhaps with a rigid and strong mount that doesn't let you adjust the angle up and down would work, but that's not the mount I have.
