Cinema Display VESA Mount Adapter Kit
Extremely Difficult
Written by MK from Washington Township
Nov 12, 2009
I am a very handy person. I am in the process of renovation my whole house and this was the hardest task to date. The directions are not easy to follow and I wasn't sure if I am supposed to mount directly to the wall or to another wall mount. I decided to go directly to the wall. It was extremely difficult to get the holes to line up and my hand could fit behind the MAC to tighten the screws. It took me 2 days to work up a solution, but I finally did and now I am happy. For such a smart company, this is the worst design. I was very angry and frustrated until it was finally done.

Procede with caution

The tolerances are way too tight. I had to remove one of the "rubber bumpers" in order to attach this to my 23 inch display, attach it, and then pound the rubber bumper back in.
Rookie design mistakes, I expect better from Apple. Much better.176 of 352 people found this useful

Yet another way for Apple to Nickle and Dime us!!!
Written by JS from Wilmington

I would give this product half a star if I could. The holes are not compatable with common mounts. Apple in yet another attempt to nickle and dime us to death comes up with the idea of requiring an adapter to mount a monitor to something that all other monitors come with standard.(and they charge $30 not including shipping for it) Here is some advice for the design team at Apple stop over designing, whats wrong with the installed holes in every other monitor on the market?

Screws too small
Written by KW from Kansas City

In conjunction with removing the stand that ships with the Cinema Display monitors and installing this one, I had a difficult time with the screw sizes and access. Especially if you change your mind and want to re-attach the original stand, one tends to stand on your head to get the job done.

Cinema Display VESA Mount Adapter Kit
requires additional parts to be compatible
Written by JM from Cupertino

most vesa arms have 75mm x 75mm mounts. This is 100mm x 100mm., which means you need yet another adapter. this should have just had the 75mm holes drilled in as well.

Vesa Mount not compatible with support arm sold by Apple
Written by JL from Anchorage
Feb 17, 2006
There are two vesa standards and this mount will not work with the Spacedec arm sold by Apple. The mount can easily be modified if you have access to precision drilling and tapping equipment. Otherwise beware of incompatibility

Standard feature on other, even much less expensive monitors
Written by BA from Syosset

While this products functions perfectly, the reason for the low score is due to my feeling that this should have been included with my monitor. NOT something I need to go out and spend an additional $30 on. Especially since most other LCD monitors now have this feature built in already. I wouldn't want to ruin the esthetic, so I don't mind that it is a seperate piece, it just really should have been included.
