VIVO Adapter VESA Mount Kit, Bracket Set for Apple 21.5 inch and 27 inch iMac, Late 2009 to 2020 Models, LED Display Computer, Stand-MACB

I need to turn my 27" imac 90 degrees to portrait orientation and back to landscape quickly and easily. Just as other reviews have mentioned, the bolts do not fit. You will need to buy your own. The stand I use is this one: Single Monitor Stand Freestanding 27-43 Inch Monitor Arm Curved Screen Monitor Mount Tempered Glass Base Adjustable Motion Tilt -15° to 10° Swivel ±45° Rotation 360° Weight Capacity 77lbs HT05B-003. The slots that work perfectly on this stand are six and seven from the top. Even though the bolts did not fit I am giving it a 5 star rating because the price was low.

GREAT! GET ONE! This a great solution to the ergonomics of a monitor arm that we Mac users are pretty much denied. This device is well-made and nicely priced. It's rock-solid, and fit my 21,5" Mac like a glove after a five-minute, just-me install. Came with every bit of metric hardware needed, and then some! Don't be left out of all the benefits of a monitor arm. This is a quick and easy fix for those of us whose monitor height decisions are limited by Apple's wisdom and whether or not we can still find a phone book lying around. (Kids, ask your parents.) There are lots of great monitor arms out there (my choice: Jarvis arm by Fully.com, $99. Great range of motion, smooth movement, and solid feel). You'll see in the photos that I added a couple of adhesive foam dots to the back of the monitor where, in certain positions that you'd likely never use, the screws from the clamp could contact the back of the Mac. Maybe they could have included some nylon cap nuts? I still rate this Five Stars and 100%, on suitability for purpose, relative ease of installation, and build quality. Side by side with my factory VESA Mac, you see the lift point is about the same, so monitor arms work fine with this. A few years back, I had the forethought to special order a Mac with a VESA mount. But I've since upgraded that machine, which meant I had a more powerful Mac that was less ergonomic. Now I have the best of both worlds. Soooo worth the money! I did consider building something myself. For $20, this was a better solution. Just buy it.

This product solves an issue that Apple should have dealt with,namely VESA wall mounting ANY iMac easily. My iMac is 2012 and removing the stand in order to install a VESA mount is not trivial for this model according to my local Apple authorized service center. Apparently, newer models are better. Rather than spend a great deal of time and money to disassemble the iMac to install a VESA mount (available at Monoprice, check Amazon too), I opted for this product. The bracket solves this problem perfectly. In addition, with the iMac off the desk, the stand bottom can be used to hold something. I have used the stand bottom to attach a USB hub. You must, of course, use a VESA arm of adequate weight rating and compatible with the bracket. Cable management can be done using TV wall mounting products. I purchased mine from a local retailer but suspect Amazon carries this as well. How refreshing to find a product that does exactly as advertised and is well made.

I bought this to put my 27 inch iMac on the wall and it honestly worked really great, there was a bit of process to connecting it to the wall mount, just a note if you are using a tv mount make sure that the mounting plate is not larger than 200mm in size or it won't fit on the back because of the angle that the mount attaches to the iMac. Other than that its a very simple and easy install, directions are kind of crap however its not too difficult to figure out. The trickiest part ws using the nylon leveling screws which I suggest installing first as they gave me a it of trouble, my holes were a bit threaded wrong so I used one of the other metal screws and kind of retapped the holes then pulled those out and installed the nylon screws which went it really easy after that.

My husband installed this for me onto my 2019 27” iMac, also using this Articulating tv wall mount: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ID7QNI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. It took him about half an hour only because I wanted to put it into a small corner (again to maximize space but the corner of the walls also provides further stability for the screen to rest on when not pulled out). I would say with these two pieces of equipment, please make sure you’re securing the mount into a stud. Now its done, the whole thing feels very secure. When installing this, there comes a point where its best to have two sets of hands to ensure you do not drop your precious cargo. The VIVO mount is an essential item if you want to install your iMac on a wall and I’m glad this company provides such a gadget, as I don't believe Apple offer anything like this. No fault at all to the VIVO Adapter, but the only downside is when doing this, you cannot remove the iMac stand at all - at least on the latest version. It just hangs there. Although, I have seen some people decide to cut it off. Whilst waiting for delivery I discovered several Youtube videos that explain the process of installing this (along with the added wall mount) and this helped a lot. Highly recommended, sturdy, in keeping with the Apple design aesthetic and a reasonable price.

Oh boy, let me tell you about the VIVO Adapter VESA Mount Kit, the magical contraption that turned my iMac into a floating unicorn on my desk! 🦄✨ Now, I know what you're thinking – "Why on earth would I want to turn my sleek iMac into a wall-mounted masterpiece?" Well, my friend, let me take you on a whimsical journey through my experience. Picture this: I unboxed the kit, and the first thing I thought was, "Is this a miniature spaceship?" The parts were like a puzzle from a parallel universe – strange, intriguing, and oddly satisfying to assemble. It's as if Apple and an alien inventor collaborated to create this gizmo. Installing it was like performing an arcane ritual. Step one: I put on my robe and wizard hat (not really, but it would have felt appropriate). Step two: I carefully removed the iMac's stand, bidding farewell to its desk-bound days. Step three: I affixed the VESA plate, chanting a spell for stability and ergonomic elegance. Voilà! My iMac was now ready to defy gravity. The real enchantment began when I mounted my iMac on the wall. It was as if it had gained a new perspective on life. It felt like a majestic artwork, a portal to a digital wonderland. And let's not forget the newfound desk space – it was like my desk did a happy dance and threw a party for all the extra room. However, there's a catch to this magical transformation. The iMac's cables suddenly seemed like mischievous pixies, refusing to be tamed. Wrangling them was like trying to herd cats – a hilarious spectacle for anyone watching. I had to summon all my patience and a handful of cable clips to keep them in line. In the end, the VIVO Adapter VESA Mount Kit is like the wardrobe to Narnia – it opens up a world of possibilities. If you're ready to embrace the quirks, dance with the cables, and turn your iMac into a floating masterpiece, this kit will be your ticket to a truly enchanting computing experience. Just remember to keep a few cable clips and a sprinkle of pixie dust handy! 🧚‍♂️💻

I have a 27" intel iMac. It is heavy (21 lbs/9.54 kg). The mount adapter worked great, it mounts the Mac to the monitor arm, but the top-heavy nature of the computer and swingy nature of the iMac stand means I cannot actually lift the iMac off the desk without it dangerously tilting forward due to the stand being basically a loose hinge. My monitor arm can support the weight of the iMac, but not with the swinging motion of the stand. I still think it does add value to my overall setup though. The assistance of my gas spring monitor mount makes moving the iMac around much easier, along with the added cable management that the monitor arm I have. Overall content with my purchase since it does help for general mobility and cable management, but the actual setup of mount I have along with the large iMac make floating the iMac impossible as I would have hoped to be able to do. Perhaps with a rigid and strong mount that doesn't let you adjust the angle up and down would work, but that's not the mount I have.

Works fine. I got this to mount my iMac on a monitor arm, but I wanted to keep the original stand on and use it as a little shelf for my USB audio interface. For that it works perfectly. It takes some time to put it all together, and unless you are handy with screwing everything in nice and tight this will feel tedious and take forever. However. It holds the iMac securely. My only complaint is that the angled piece on the bracket between the vesa mount and the iMac stand can flex. So even if the vesa monitor arm is rock solid, the monitor can sway like a twig in an ever so soft breeze. This makes the monitor move like someone nodding their head “yes” very gently, but noticeable enough to be annoying. At first I was thinking it might be falling, but after seeing why/how that was happening I’ve just had to learn to accept it.

Well engineered

Perfect. Just what I needed to mount my 2020 27” iMac to the wall with the stand still attached

Ho acquisttato questo Kit per sollevare il mio iMac 21,5 del 2009 e collegarlo ad un braccio mobile. il Kit arriva ben confezionato e con tutto l'occorrente che necessita pe il montaggio. Un po laborioso ma ben indicato nelle istruzioni. Ho atteso un po prima di recensirlo per vedere e valurare bene il frizionamento ed eventualmente la sua resistenza al peso e devo dire che non ho dovuto fare alcune regolazione nel tempo. Ottima soluzione per chi ha la necessità di sollevare il proprio iMac.

This product is well designed for Mac. It is exactly fit to my iMac and I am using it well.
