I use this tripod for my video DJing and it works perfectly..

The quality on the product is very well and sturdy. It has hydraulic air support so it will never fall hard with a TV attached. Them metal bars are not like the cheap metal they use for speaker stands. Make a nice cover for you it and you have yourself a great buy. I use it with a 50 flat screen TV for gigs and presentations. Word the buck.

I was truly surprised at how well this tripod is built!!! The Gator brand is definitely a brand you can trust to exceed the standard when it comes to quality..

This is a well built stand that seems to be durable enough for professional use. I bought it primarily to use to hold a Panasonic 21.5 monitor for studio work and it works great for that purpose. It sets up easily and the mount allows me to swing the monitor in various directions as needed. As another reviewer mentioned, I found it more useful for me to switch the hardware on the mount so I could tilt the monitor from level to upward as opposed to the level to downward that it is set up from the factory. Usually, I want the monitor lower with the screen tilted upward in a studio. The default setup is probably more suited for an event or presentation where you want the screens up higher and tilted down for the audience to see. This brings up the only negative I have for this mount. I do wish it could go lower more than it does, but it's not a deal breaker. I have he quick release plate permanently mounted on my monitor. It is a mostly flat plate that takes up little room and can be left on all the time without affecting storage. The plate is large and it almost blocks some of the connections on the back of my monitor. If you are using a smaller monitor this may be a problem. It clips on the stand easily and locks with a click. The model I purchased has the LiftEEZ gas lift to make it easy to lift the monitor up or down. The gas lift is very strong and you have to be careful not to loosen the knob on the column to release it until you have mounted the monitor on the stand. If there is no weight on the stand the column will pop up with great force and can be dangerous. For safety, I printed up warning labels to stick on the side of the knob to say: Warning do not release knob unless monitor is mounted. The pressure is high enough to raise a 55 TV easily. If your monitor is not very heavy I would suggest the stand without the LiftEEZ, otherwise this was a great purchase for me.

Bought this for my editing room. I have a 47'' Samsung attached, and I have it extended by at least 5 ' and it is very sturdy.

This product will be used for social events to display results. We'll use two of the stands for each side of the room. Easy setup and take-down.

This stand is heavy duty. I was surprised as to how heavy it is. I use it to mount 50 tvs at events and never feel unsure about the stand supporting the tv. I also use it to mount speakers every once in a while. Will probably buy another pair.

Far superior to a tripod stand. Very stable and very easy to elevate the screen. Highly recommended.

This stand seems a bargain for only $$. Super durable, heavy duty...the best part is the LiftEEZ system allows for only one man setup/breakdowns at tradeshows! Only issue was my TV plate and the plate it comes with did not match even when it said it should have. Can't blame the plate but it was an easy fix...just went to the store got a couple of screws and good to go!
