Works well with my heavy monitor stand that supports 4 large monitors. Peace of mind for use on desktop that might otherwise be too thin. Attaches easy.

A solid material and straight forward instructions

Perfect addition to the dual monitor arms.

I'm got dual monitor's (31 lbs each) so this extra support under plate is really great and I'm not screwing into the wood or cracking it If too tight. Tried it with and without by itself and it felt much sturdier with it. Slip bottom plate in last minute when it's close unless you have second person to hold it while you tighten. I did it by myself but a little tricky.

I decided to purchase two monitor arms for my setup, as I wanted more space on my actual desk and more freedom to move my monitors. However, my desk was very expensive and I was afraid of the weight potentially digging into my desk and damaging it. I purchased these along with the monitor arms from the same company, as I heard good things about the quality of the arms, and I trusted buying these since they were from a reputable brand.It is super simple, just two pieces of metal that fit onto the desk and just disperse the pressure of the weight onto the desk. The first thing I noticed was how heavy the actual plates are, coming in at around 4 pounds for two plates. It didn't bother me, but it was just strange how much it actually took. Regardless, the heavier plate rests on top of the desk with an adhesive pad underneath to assure it sticks to the table. On the bottom, the next piece is placed in between the clamp and the desk. Assembly is tricky and tedious, but not hard at all if you have the motor skills above a 4th grade child. It is just a bit challenging to place the bottom piece where it needs to go without it falling, while juggling the clamp for the monitor arms. It works well and it does as it is advertised.Overall I am satisfied with how it works. I have only two main complaints about the unit. Firstly, the pads are pretty big. I knew that it would take a good portion of my desk economy, but I had no clue how much it truly would be. Don't get me wrong, it is much more space than it would have been if I didn't use the monitor arms, and used the stands that came included with each monitor. However, they are still decently big, leaving little space on a thin desk. If you have a bigger desk than it is no problem, but thinner desks like mine will see varying results. It isn't a big deal, still plenty of space, but they most likely could have used smaller pads, but I could understand if someone used two monitor arms for one pad. I have two monitor arms, but I use two different pads due to how spread out I like the arms.The other issue I had was the price of the monitor arm. For $25, you're getting two slabs of metal and some adhesive pads. It isn't a rip off by any means, rather it is probably a bit more expensive than it should be. Again, I would rather pay the difference than potentially get something that would warp or crack my desk.My overall thoughts, I have had the plates for a month, and they work tremendously. I don't see any warping of the desk or damage, so they work. I give four stars because they work, and they do it well. If they could make a model that is slightly smaller and cheaper, then this would be an easy 5 stars, but it isn't unfortunately. No matter what I say, the difference is worth it in the long haul, taking care of every portion of your computer setup is important, including both the desk and your monitors.

The kit contains two pieces of very solid and heavy metal that "sandwich" the table, providing more stability by spreading out the torque caused by a heavy monitor stand (dual monitor in our case).Assembly is somewhat irrelevant - it's placed between the table and the compression mount (it won't work for grommet mounts because it doesn't have a hole in it, though I suppose one could drill a hole if necessary.) There isn't much more than that.It definitely reduced the torque on the edge of the desk, though it does seem to slide a bit despite the sticky pads. I got around this by tightening the mount screws a bit more than usual, and it seems ok.

I had clamps on my desk for my monitors and microphones. They all tear and dig into my table in order to stay sturdy. With this plate, it made sure that it doesn't go and ruin my table. I would highly recommend anyone that's getting a monitor stand to get these plates so they don't break into your desks due to weight and long usage.

I have a pretty thin work desk from IKEA at only about 1/2” thick MDF and was worried that a monitor mount holding my 34” widescreen would potentially crack the MDF.This is a really simple and well made solution from Huanuo. The steel plates are heavy and robust and the design is aesthetically minimalist. It also has nice soft padding you can install between the plates and your desk.Overall 10/10, I can’t think of anything I’d change about the design.

I have a couple monitor arms and the issue I have noticed is that the amount of weight of the monitor and the way the monitor arms work, there is a lot of force placed on the desk where the monitor arm attaches to the desk. This is especially true if the desk you are attaching the monitor arm onto isn't as solid as it should be. In my case, I've been attaching the monitor arm to an IKEA coffee table... and this coffee table top isn't completely solid.To deal with this situation, I had used some thin boards of wood to spread the force over a larger area... which is essentially what this metal plate does. My solution with the boards of wood does work... however, after some time, the wood has started warping due to the amount of force. These metal plates avoid this problem by being much more sturdier than wood even while being thinner.The only problem I see is price... given it's simply a stamped out sheet of metal that is painted (or maybe powder coated?). I think it's a bit pricey. But on the other hand, I realize this is not a commonly needed product. If your desk top is sturdy enough to support the monitor arm, there is really no need for this.One last word of warning... the top plate is rather large... there are dimensions it shows in the description but sometimes until you actually see a product physically, it's sometimes hard to judge the size. But the plus side of the size is that this will distribute the weight of the monitor arm over a larger area.

I wanted to keep my glass top standing table but the glass is thin (1/4") and not really a great idea to mount a c-clamp dual monitor arm stand to the table. But I wanted to do it anyway.This Steele reinforcement was perfect for the job! It added some girth to the table for the clamp, and made it easy for me to take the pressure off the very small area the c -clamp applies pressure to. Additionally, I placeted the bottom plate on top of the tables metal skeleton under the glass, giving it more support to not shatter my glass table top! Works like a charm and I got to have my cake and eat it too!

I am using this reinforcement plate kit to mount a bench vice onto a 1.75" thick block of plywood so that I can move the vice to where I need it. This plate will keep the vice from digging into the wood and loosening over time. I drilled 3 holes through the plate to mount the vice. I only used the larger rounded plate. These plates are thicker, stronger, and more rigid than I was expecting (that's a good thing.) It was somewhat difficult to drill through (also a good thing.) The finish on the metal is excellent and did not crack, chip, or peel when drilled through. Two non-skid pads are also included with the two plates in the kit. This is an excellent product, and well worth the money TO ME. It will definitely work well for it's intended use to support a monitor mount. I would purchase this exact kit again without any reservations. With all of the cheap junk coming from PRC, this was a very nice and welcomed surprise!!

Using this to pad a thin glass surface (less than 2 cm), running an arm with a 27 inch monitor on it. No problem at all, installation feels solid. The arm on this pad can take quite some abuse, nothing moves, cracks, or squeaks. Good product, works well!
