VIVO STAND-V002L Dual Monitor Stand vs VIVO STAND-V002R Dual Monitor Mount

Both are VIVO vertical dual monitor stands with the same 13" to 34" screen range, 22 lb per-arm capacity, VESA 75x75/100x100 holes, +45°/-45° tilt and 360° rotation, so the screens you can mount are identical. The real split is how they sit on the desk: the STAND-V002L is a freestanding pole on a 10.5" by 15" base, while the STAND-V002R clamps to the desk edge with a C-clamp or grommet mount. Owners of the freestanding model rate it 4.7 out of 5 and praise the steel build and stability, but several report quality-control faults such as miswelded studs and brackets that would not fit. Buy the clamp version if you want the desk surface clear and your desk edge can take a clamp; buy the freestanding version if you cannot clamp or want to move the stand around.

• Choose the STAND-V002L if you cannot clamp to your desk, want to reposition the stand freely, or need a base that sits on a desk up to any thickness.
• Choose the STAND-V002R if your desk has a clampable edge up to 3.25" thick and you want the desk surface kept clear under the monitors.
