Even though my table has some sort of back plate that does not allow the clamp to stay put......

I have however placed the stand on the corner of my computer table. I have a lot more space to work with on my computer table. I never have to tilt my monitor again which is something that I like as well as the height adjustment. While the adjusting the height is very tedious, I understand why Brateck have done it the way they have; It's so that it doesn't break so easily.

The cable management is quite useless since it's way too small to fit any of the cables that I use. It may be different for you.

Having seen several other brackets that do the same thing and cost a whole lot more, we were very happy with the quality and finish of this bracket. It's sturdy enough for the job and it doesn't look out of place in an office environment.
