Tryone Gooseneck Kindle&Tablet Holder for Bed Hands-Free Reading on Bed Headboard for iPad, Kindle, and Switch, Flexible 30in Al-Mg Alloy Clamp Arm Stand for Tablets 4.7-10.5 in, Phone - Black - 30in

____________________________________________Disclaimer______________________________________________________ First let me say that I purchased this item from amazon and was in no way compensated by this company for this review. I have had dealings with their customer support and it is for that reason that even with the short coming of this item, they have received a 5 star rating. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ok, so I have seen some of the criticisms of this stand/holder and they range from complaints about the plastic to the stiffness, and or bounciness of this item. First: yes, it has plastic, if you don't want plastic, find another product that is going to cost you much more and provide none of the flexibility of this product. Second: Is the flexible part stiff and hard to shape... yes... but if it were not so then it would sag every time you used it. Third: is it bouncy... yes.. what do you expect? it is an ADJUSTABLE arm that can be put into most any shape withing reason. How it is that people would expect anything different is beyond comprehension. Fourth: Does it break... yes... anything will break if you apply to much force or in the case of this stand, at the base where the clamp is. This apparently is not common sense so people need to be told to not be overly aggressive with something at its weakest point. Rant over! I have had it for a couple of months now and here is my take on it, It is a nice item to have and once I played with it for a bit I found a shape (spiral) that best suited my use. It is a bit springy which makes touch screen a bit of a pain but it also allows us to use it in unconventional places where a normal stand type would not work. I originally purchased it for my iPad, unfortunately, the clamp is not deep enough to hold my iPad [ http://a.co/d/6SAqD3G ] in its protective case [ http://a.co/d/4vSKCrf ] because in the back of the case is a hand strap and kickstand. I then decided to see if it would work for my wife's Surface pro, and it did, so it currently resides on the headboard of our bed on my wife's side where she mounts the surface pro so she can watch videos with here headphones on instead of turning on the TV. The weight of the surface pro is not an issue and there is no sag. I shaped the arm into a spiral shape and pressed the rings closely together to minimize the springiness of it. While not perfect, it works extremely well, all my wife does is hold one corner of the tablet while using the touch screen with the other. I eventually got a follow up message from this company in regards to the item and whether or not I am happy with it. I explained the issue with my ipad case but that my wife uses it for her surface pro. They quickly got back to me and offered to take the item back for a full refund since it did not meet my needs. Now for those that complain about this product, I have only one question, did you contact customer support? I understand that there are going to be problem units, but I also know that people will complain just to complain. I wholly support putting information out about a bad product and have done so on occasion myself but I always add that the issue I had is based on one unit that I received and may not reflect the product as a whole. I have no complaints about this product or this company, I have purchased two products from them and have yet to see any of the issues others have complained about. Maybe i'm lucky but I think that it has more to do with managing expectations and not abusing the products. I highly recommend this product for two reasons, first, it is actually a very good product that is durable as long as you are not heavy handed when using it. Two, they have taken a page out of the amazon customer service handbook and made it better. Their customer service is amazingly responsive, professional and courteous. I would and will buy from this company again because I know that if the product is not up to my standards then they are willing to make things right within reason. A big thumbs up for a very cool product and the amazing customer service rep Kevin that deserves a raise for dealing with a difficult person like me. I hope this review helped Oh yeah, one last thing, the clip (that holds your table or phone depending on which one you get) uses a very strong spring which is needed to hold things in place. It is made of plastic which keeps the weight down and keeps the arm from sagging, this plastic will eventually break if you allow it to snap shut when you remove you phone or tablet. If you don't want it to break then use a little common sense and don't allow it to snap closed, that should be a no brainer but from looking at some of the reviews, apparently it needs to be said out loud.

positives - well made, sturdy/stiff goose-neck, easy on/off slider for tablet, large mounting clamp, many ways to adjust, versatile negatives - NONE i got my mom a kindle hd8 tablet All-New Fire HD 8 Tablet, 8" HD Display, Wi-Fi, 16 GB - Includes Special Offers, Black this last year. she has bad arthritis in her hands and even as light as the tablet is after no time her hands start to lock up and she has to put it down. i had tried a different style holder before but that didn't work out for her needs. so i thought to try this hoping for the best. that said I am the one who gets to put things together for her. the first thing i noticed was how stiff the goose-neck was. that is a very good thing for stability. granted it takes a bit to get it bent to where you want it but once done it will absolutely stay put. no slumping over, no brittle material, just the perfect material for this or any goose-neck. as for the table clamps they are actually large enough to do the job with confidence. the desk clamp can be placed vertically or horizontally depending on the edge you are to screw it down onto. the part which holds the tablet itself has a simple spring loaded slider mechanism. you just pull one side or the other out, put the tablet in and let go, held firmly in place. you can then adjust your tablet side to side and or back and forward to get the best viewing angle. so there you go. thankfully she is able to use this one and i'm happy to finally have one that works for her. fyi i have her use it with a folding table Winsome Wood TV Tray Set that she can put where ever she may be.

Works well easy to assemble. Holds tablet well but has does take a strong grip to move and adjust. It is good at saving space around the desk or bed. Has held up well so far to not fall off.

This is the perfect clamp ring light! My home office is in the corner of the master bedroom which doesn’t actually have any ceiling lights so while the natural light is perfectly fine to see during the day I was looking like a red potato head on video calls which just isn’t cute or very acceptable. This ring light makes me look amazing on calls now even when I’ve got dirty pulled back hair & no makeup on. But even better it doubles as a desk light! I just twist the neck to face down & everything’s illuminated better then if I were to have a traditional desk lamp, which my space is also small so theres actually no room for a regular desk lamp here. I love how it’s clamp-able. I’ve got it clamped on unused desk real estate along with my iPad clamp so it’s fully out of the way & not taking up surface space. I also love that it’s USB & eradicates the need for taking up another plug. I just plug it into my laptop when I need it! The on off & light toggle switch on the wire is also the perfect length for my use. Since this will almost always permanently stay where it’s clamped I used museum sticky putty to adhere the switch to the arm of my desk making it easy to access & so it’s not dangling Willy nilly. Honestly, I really don’t have any cons to note on this product 😊 it does everything it’s supposed to & more!

So, I like it. It's usable, and gets the job done. It holds my Kindle while I read at night quite nicely. Saves my hands from having to hold the book up to read. Which is nice!! Pros: * It clamps in place... enough to be effective * The bar is STURDY and will hold your devices exactly where you put them Cons: * The padding on the inside of the clamps (that might protect your furniture from scrapes, etc) started to kinda peel away from the device the tighter I clamped it down. Not a deal breaker, but long term it could be an issue if you're moving it around a lot for w/e reason. Probably wouldn't be good for someone who travels a lot and is constantly clamping/un-clamping it. * The "sturdy" bar is... STURDY. Getting it bent into position def. takes a little muscle. Not a lot, it's totally doable, but still not "easy" either. Because the bar is both stiff, and long enough to be positioned, it tends to bounce a bit. So, the first couple of seconds after hitting 'next page' the kindle is kinda bouncing around. Not a problem if you're watching a video or movie or w/e and not touching the screen, but when reading a book, it's a little annoying. Overall though, I'm happy with it. Just the couple of minor issues above!!

Great price for what you get! It’s VERY sturdy, the flexible arm is also study and I don’t worry about it dropping down due to weight. An issue with past items like this. :) very happy!

This thing is GREAT! It is so much nicer than I expected especially for the price. I primarily use it for my Nintendo Switch and my iPad Pro (10.5 in). When I told my husband I had ordered it I knew he was thinking 'Oh great, another piece of junk that won't work or we won't use' (later he told me that was exactly what he was thinking, LOL) but he was super impressed with the quality and how convenient it is. The gooseneck is REALLY STRONG. So strong it's kind of hard to bend, but that is a good thing, because I know it's sturdy enough to hold my screens in pretty much any position I want without dropping them. I would suggest figuring out how you want to adjust it and bending it before you put your device in and before you actually clamp it to your furniture, etc. The part that holds the device is very sturdy yet easy to use with soft pads on each side to avoid damage to your device. It is attached to the gooseneck with a ball swivel thingy that makes it really easy to turn your screen in pretty much any direction. The base clamp is very strong, well made and very easy to use with soft, grippy pads on each side so you don't damage the surface you are clamping to. All in all, this stand is great and is exceeding all of my expectations and at a great price to boot!!!! (I am not getting any compensation in return for this review and I purchased it out of my own pocket, I just like this product that much)

Works good for my phone, but I initially got it to hold a switch 2 that has a thin case on it. The clamp part isn't deep enough or have enough grip to hold it super securely. It can work if you tilt it so the screen is facing more up, but straight on or even facing down would not be recommended. The switch 2 will fall out. But the construction of the arm is good, it keeps its shape really well, overall a good product. I just wish there was a deeper clamp head to use for a wider range of devices.

Good value, strong neck so I don't worry anything will fall over. Really enjoying not having to balance my iPad mini

El brazo es bastante duro, incluso un poco difícil de moldear, pero está bien porque aguanta el peso y queda estable. Pero OJO: El iPhone solo entra horizontalmente. No es lo mejor si lo que pretende es usarlo como "tripié" para grabar o tomar fotos con el móvil, pues el agarre es tan ancho que cubre la cámara/pantalla. Se puede ajustar para evitar esto, pero resulta incómodo de operar. Fuera de eso, excelente.

Quería usarlo para mi nintendo switch, pero mejor no ya que me llegó un artículo que no es el de las fotos y tampoco es de la marca, ni la caja ni el producto tienen el logo o el nombre de la compañía por ningún lado, el tubo se siente muy resistente lo demás no, en especialmente la pieza que agarra los aparatos, se siente frágil, adjunto fotos para que ustedes juzguen antes de comprar, si no lo devuelvo es porque tendría que salir a correos y hay pandemia, muy decepcionada con esta compra.

I purchased this because I wanted to be able to watch Foxtel in bed comfortably and not have my iPad smack me in the face as I drift off to sleep. Could I pay the extra $ 25/month for another Foxtel box in my room ? Possibly. Am I too much of a tight ass to do that ? Definitely. So I though I’d try this little gadget out instead. I’m so glad I did ! As you can see from my photo, I have the Gooseneck Tablet Stand clamped to the edge of my bedside table and I’m able to get it to an angle where both my hubby and I can watch the iPad quite comfortably. The clamp feels very secure and it’s got rubbery bits along the inside so it won’t scratch your furniture. At this angle, when I touch my iPad the screen will wobble a bit but at no point does it feel like the iPads going to slide out, because the clamps holding it in place are spring loaded. The actual “gooseneck is bendable but still quite stiff - which of course, it needs to be in order for it not to sag under the weight of your iPad. Was it worth the $ 25 I paid for it ? Yes, absolutely. To be fair I could have paid twice that price at the shops and still been happy with my purchase. What about the seller ? Fantastic service. Paid for it Monday, received it Wednesday, carefully packaged with simple instructions. Would I buy it again ? For sure ! Would make a handy Christmas gift for anyone who enjoys watching movies or Tv in bed, or just for a tight ass like me who doesn’t want to part with $ 25 extra bucks a month for another Foxtel box. Two thumbs up 👍🏽 👍🏽

El brazo es muy rígido y complicado de ajustar. Además produce mucha vibración
