    It fits perfectly!

    • Written by from Beaverton

    I was a little worried about buying this mount due to the previous review saying that it didn't fit. But, I bought and created a little video showing how it's installed. It does fit just fine, but I can see why it might seem like it doesn't fit.

    Search for "Apple VESA Mount Adapter Unboxing and Install" on YouTube. I can't post the link here.

    You really need a Torx-capable screwdriver

    • Written by from Seattle

    This adapter kit contains two pieces: a flange that attaches to a stub inside the monitor/iMac, and an adapter plate that attaches to that flange (the adapter plate is the only part pictured in the its description).

    A single Torx fastener driven through the adapter plate is actually responsible for aligning the whole assembly. It carries lots of strain and requires significant torque to install completely. If you try to torque the fastener by hand, you will strip the head. A high-torque screwdriver with Torx head is a requirement.

    Unsurprisingly excellent design

    • Written by from Oakland

    I used this to mount a Thunderbolt display to an ergonomic sit to stand arm and it worked great. It should be no surprise to anyone that follows Apple that this is a well designed product. While installing it I was struck at how much thought went into it and how well it was built.

    The installation was very smooth and painless. If you have trouble getting the holes on the sides of the flange to line up read the instructions, you have to tighten the center bolt on the adapter very tight in order to bring the plate down enough to line up the holes.

    Need a proper Torx screwdriver

    • Written by from Sammamish

    You need a proper Torx screwdriver for this thing to mount correctly.

    This Apple VESA mount is a finely designed product but the included fastener (which is a small torx allen key) is not good enough. The included fastener does not generate enough torque/drive to align the components to mount this thing correctly. More

    So-So

    • Written by from Bloomington

    I'd say that Apple dropped the engineering ball on this one. Working with a 27" Thunderbolt display was not so easy. Getting the stand off was fine. After that it got more difficult. Getting the bolts to line up to mount the flange was tricky, and then getting the bolts into the end for the actual mount adapter has so far proven to be impossible. One end will bolt in perfectly, but the other end will not. Once the mount adapter is removed, the bolts bolt in perfectly. Definitely not Apple's engineering finest. More
