The Product
----------------
The product construction on these things is excellent - all the bits are cast metal (aluminium?) and you can tell, once the screws are tightened, they're not going anywhere.
All necessary tools are supplied (x2 alan keys and a small spanner) with the stand.
You get vertical adjustment at the pole by sliding the "joint lock" (the bit that sits over the pole and provides a hole for the arm[s] to fit into) and each arm can be swivelled freely in the horizontal plane. The Vesa brackets (the bits that join the stand to the monitors) are adjustable as well - you can tilt the monitor forwards/backwards and rotate it clockwise/anti-clockwise.
Once you're done adjusting you can tighten everything up and the job is done. This involves a bit of trial and error + a few goes to get right; but it's easy enough.
The Gotchas
----------------
As several other reviews have pointed out - you need to understand what your total horizontal monitor width is. This product (on its own) won't cater for today's bigger monitors. My exact setup is detailed below if you're interested. The really good thing about this product is that it's extensible: you can buy individual arms that allow you to go to bigger monitors without having to purchase a whole new rig. There is a limit - i wouldn't string more than 3/4 arms together unless I had a super light monitor at the end of it. But even then, you could buy another pole (again, see below for my setup) and redistribute some of the load (the Allcam website [[...]] have a complete range of bits)
One other thing to understand is that - if you buy the MDM06 only - you get two "joint locks" ... those bits that fit over the pole and have holes that you plug the arms into. The idea is that your central monitor goes on the middle joint lock (which has only one hole for a single arm or vesa bracket) and the left/right monitors both attach to the other one (it has two holes!). If your left/right monitors are NOT a matching pair and the mounting holes for the vesa bracket aren't aligned - you'll get some vertical height difference between the left/right monitors that you will not be able to adjust away because they are mounted on the same joint lock. (I overcame this with my setup [again, see below]).
Overall
---------------
It's not perfect (what is) - but it is a) solid as a rock, b) extensible and c) cheaper than the competition
You've either got to be pretty angry or pretty impressed to write a review of this length. Overall - I'm extremely pleased with it and would definitely recommend it.
My Setup
----------------
I've got 3 monitors: a 27 inch front-and-centre with two 22inch side monitors. Let me say - right off the bat: The out-of-the-box MDM06 will NOT handle these sizes of monitors because the total length of the supplied arms is not long enough.
I ended up with the following kit to meet my needs:
1. x1 MDM06.
2. x1 additional pole (+ desk clamp + single-mount joint-lock)
3. x3 additional long arms Long Arm for Allcam MDM04 MDM05 and MDM06 series LCD Monitor Desk Mount Bracket
First I tried with a single pole and just had the arm extensions...but beyond 3 arms between the pole and the monitor - you'll realise that it's not a safe setup - you get lots of wobble if your desk is knocked and I couldn't shake the feeling that i'd arrive at my desk each day to find the left/right monitors a little bit closer to the floor.
In the end I got the second pole and have two monitors on one, and a single on the other....this is a representation
LeftMonitor==|=CentreMonitor |==-RightMonitor
where "=" is a long arm, "-" is a short arm and "|" is a pole. This arrangement has one monitor per joint lock - which means all three are able to have their vertical position independently adjusted (which I needed as none of my monitors are the same model).
This works really well - the monitors are rock solid on the poles/arms and the length of the two peripheral monitors is just enough to angle them inwards for a perfect setup (for me!)
I've also bought a couple of spare arms because I expect to upgrade to larger peripheral monitors in the future and will probably re-jig to this:
LeftMonitor-==|CentreMonitor |==-RightMonitor
which is pleasingly symmetrical and will allow me to keep the same angle on the left/right monitors even though they'll be wider.
P.S It might have been cheaper for me to buy three of the single mounts - i haven't worked it out because there's no point and i'm not overly bothered - but it would be worth checking if you're thinking of something similar.

Had one of these for 7 months now. The only thing I have had to do was tighten a nut after a few months to get the tension how I like it. I really love being able to rotate the monitor into portrait mode so that I can see an entire A4 page when I work on documentation.
I actually disconnected the clamp and drilled a small hole in my work desk as the desk is fitted to the back wall. The pole fits through the desk and I secure it to the underside of the desk and to the wall. The whole thing is very stable.
They are really good value for money and I am thinking of getting the 3 monitor version.

I just recently purchased one of these monitor brackets and I am very happy with it. It is very stable and easy to assemble. I got it up and running within a few minutes.
Best thing about it is the price. I have seen others for twice or three times the money.

I'm currently using this stand with a 24in Samsung display (Samsung P2450H 24-inch Widescreen Full HD 1920 x 1080p Monitor (2ms, HDMI, Rose Red)). The stand works perfectly even with a screen this large. Looks stylish too.

fantastic product. i bought 3 of these stands as my desk is not strong enough to hold a single triple monitor stand. each one of these stands is hold a samsung b2430hd 24" widescreen monitor, and they do it with ease. the cable channeling is really useful. the adjustments are almost limitless. easy to assemble and set up. i had all 3 assembled and set up with the monitors attached in about an hours time. they are very industrial looking but work brilliantly. highly recommended.

In the course of work I have used many dual-monitor brackets, some very expensive, but the MDM05 is very good quality and functions well - its low price means superb value for money.
The instructions, however, omit important details, I don't know why so many manufacturers do this, but they do! Getting cables into the clips is almost impossible after fitting on the desk, and the plastic clips are so stiff that forcing cables may put the cables at risk. Either pre-fit the cables or (as I have) use velcro wraps after the monitors are mounted and cable lengths adjusted for landscape/portrait rotation. Also, adjust for stiffness of rotation BEFORE fitting the monitors - the nut is inside the vesa bracket (the one with four fingers that you screw to the monitor) and cannot be accessed after fitting - and again before fitting the monitors - adjust the rotation of the vesa bracket so the the two stops (two dimples when looking into the vesa) are at the BOTTOM as the corresponding stop peg is at the top and then mount the monitor (the right way up in landscape!) - this will allow you to rotate the screen equally in either direction when going from landscape to portrait.
Where the desk does not have the vertical space to allow the clamp toggle to rotate (mine), the pin that attached the toggle can be driven out and the toggle inserted, half-turn at a time, to clamp up tight.
Small speakers can also be velcro-attached (or pipe clipped) to the arms or pole to get another bit of clutter off the desk!
Found the arm to be very sturdy, not too horrific in terms of looks (as others claimed) and holds the monitor perfectly. I would, however, exercise some caution towards what you clamp the unit to. I bought this so I could fix the monitor to the sill at the side of my bed and have the monitor floating in front of me so I could watch movies and surf in comfort without screwing my eyes at the monitor sitting across the other side of the room.
The issue is that I found the weight of the arm and monitor combined pulled the wood to the point that it started creaking, so I've kept the arms folded over the mounting pole so the weight sits evenly on the surface. Of course it's not the intended use but it makes me wonder if older units or desks would have the same distress holding so much directional weight, something you might want to consider.
The product does exactly as described though, and if your mounting surface is upto the task, then this arm will definitely be.

: Four LCD Monitors/TVs on one table (Electronics)
I'm not usually one for gushing reviews but this is an ace product. It arrived very promptly from the supplier and is now supporting my three monitors with space for me to hack something together to support a laptop.
Super solid construction - wide fitting clamp with excellent purchase in the jaws - exactly what you need to support 4 20+ inch monitors.
Initially the fittings are very tight and needed to be eased with a rachet spanner/socket set but having done that, the bearings remain tight (so far) and monitors are easily adjusted from portrait to landscape. This was the main reason for my purchasing the stand.
To be completely honest, I could probably have gotten away with a dual stand but the extra desk space will come in handy. Oh and the kids loved the new office look with a mondrian inspired background :)
Great supplier, great product.
: Three LCD Monitors/TVs on one table (Electronics)
I bought the 3 monitor desk mount initially to support 2 x 23' monitors easily with the option for a third. It caters for 2 large monitors easily and with all joints being adjustable, it was easy to set up and vary the pressure to ensure no slippage once arranged. I did not use the supplied clamp but screwed directly onto the back of my desk, using large wood screws into a plywood support. This ensured a a super stable setup, great value for money. Note, for 3 large monitors it will be necessary to purchase extra arms, available from the manufacturer.
