5.0 out of 5 stars Well designed and constructed clamping arm for light duty work
This clamp is very sturdy and the price is fantastic. I intend to use this in photography. The base clamp opens 2 1/2 inches, but 2" is probably the usable spread because the pads will angle out quite a bit when fully opened. The pads are parallel at 1 1/2 inches open. The base clamp is very powerful and it takes a relatively strong hand to open it. The clamp is designed to hold onto tubes of up to about 1 1/2 inches in addition to whatever you can fit the pads on. The rounded area towards the pivot is lightly padded with a type of stretchy, slightly rough cloth-like material. The pads have a very dense foam material on them. This is a well designed and built clamp.The tube is coil wound metal covered in a heavy coat of plastic/rubber material. It flexes easily with a bit of pressure and can position the other clamp pretty much anywhere within its length. It is tense enough to hold it there as well. It does sag a little (up to an inch with a mobile device in its jaws) then comes to a stop remaining stable afterwards. It will hold I plan to pad the jaws with foam and use this arm to stabilize flower stems without having to remove them from the plant. I can also see it being useful in holding other specimens in nature or in the studio.Overall, this is a high quality product and I recommend it unless you need to clamp more than about six ounces at full extension, and up to about a pound or more depending upon how you position the arm.
5.0 out of 5 stars More handy than I expected
Stand/Clamp, gooseneck review only. See * at bottom of review.I had the Bestek Gooseneck Cell Phone Holder in my cart for over a week. Then a complication occured related to some recent medical care and I found myself unable to do just about anything other than lay flat on my back in bed. I decided it was time to test out the Bestek Gooseneck Cell Phone holder. I knew that in my current semi- incapacitated state I would really be able to try it out.Pros:•Clip for the base support works well. I am currently using it clipped to the side of my headboard.•Holds cell phone well. The clamp for the cell phone holds well without slipping and yet does not seem to feel tight enough to be concerned about damage to phone. I am currently using it with a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 without a case.•Gooseneck is easy to position without feeling too loose or slowly drooping. The key is to keep a certain amount of S curve in the gooseneck. This allows the product to function as intended and gives the strength with flexibility to it. For example, it cannot properly support if it is fully extended or positioned with the gooseneck straight. It needs a certain amount of S curve to work effectively.•Keeps plugs and other cell accessory cords handy. I have the cords loosely tied to the middle of the gooseneck so that they are out of the way but within easy reach for charging or using earbuds etc.•Great hands free clip. This allows me to read my Kindle app or OverDrive app, email, dictate messages or product reviews, talk on speaker phone, Skype and watch Netlfix or Bolo Prime streaming all completely hands free while still having the phone positioned in a useable and comfortable position. I don't have to crane my neck or lay in any awkward way to have the phone's face positioned right where I can see and use it best. I can reach up to swipe or select here and there on the touch screen and it doesn't move the gooseneck. If you're texting while phone is on this holder it works best to cradle the phone as you would normally text (esp if you're texting speed is akin to your 60wpm typing speed) as too much movement of the phone when using touch screen and you will get some vibration.Cons:•The only con I can think if at this point is that I wish it were a little longer length on the gooseneck. Just another inch or two or maybe a selection of different length options would be great.User Note and Word of Caution:If you are intending to use on a delicate piece of furniture or one that you are concerned with getting scratched, you may benefit from using it in conjuntion with a thin flat silicone pot holder such as MIU France Set of 2 Silicone Pot Holders, Red or even a couple small pieces of some no slip shelf liner like the Duck Brand 1359572 Select Grip Easy Liner Non-Adhesive Shelf Liner, 12-Inch x 20-Feet, Black. Items like these will give you space between the strong grip and the piece of furniture you're securing to as well as give the increased slip reduction.Bottom line:This is a handy tool. Something like this would be great for folks who are temporarily or permanently incapacitated or have special needs or that need assistive devices. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good cell holder option that needs the versatility of a clip that can attach to a number of different places and surfaces.*My review is only of the stand clamp and gooseneck. My order did not come with a suction cup mount and only had the clamp, stand and gooseneck as is listed in the item description.*
3.0 out of 5 stars Holds phone but not super secure
The clip for the phone does not hold my larger phone as secure as I would like it. I bought it to do video with the phone and it works but I don't trust it with any rough handling. The flex arm is a lot beefier than I thought it would be and that's a plus. The clip to attach it to things is a little wimpy but works OK. Overall usable but not for the rough and tumble.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great Iphone clamp for the car
Love this gooseneck holder. I drive almost four hours a day, so this holder gets a lot of use. It has changed my dread of stop and go traffic. Now I can see the GPS map right at eye level, without having to look down at my phone. And, now that it's "hands-free" it's legal too.The only gripe I have is that the pin holding the clip has slipped out just a tad, and the clip mechanism is not skewed. I can fix that of course, but that problem cost them a ratings star.The neck itself is VERY sturdy, and not flimsy or difficult to control.One other issue is that the gripping clip (at the other end of the clamp, tends to scratch the surface it's clamping onto. There are rubber inserts, but they don't prevent scratching the surface the clamp is clamping to. So for stars it is. Still, a great addition to my commuting arsenal. Just don't try to watch a movie while you're driving. You'll end up with a Darwin Award after you drive over a cliff.

Complete junk the phone holder piece is too big to go into the stand
5.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Update. Liked it so much that I bought a second one, and they're both pieces of crap. The metal is way too heavy duty for the cheap plastic. One already broke. The item is also too heavy for the bolt. It loosens up and the gooseneck pivots and sways. It's a good idea, but the product is designed poorly. Below is my original post that I regret writing.I can't believe it's only $12. I just got it today, and it could break and disappoint me in the near future, but I don't think it will. It's SUPER heavy duty. The flexible neck is longer than I expected, and I love it. I'm looking at it right now and appreciating it. I'm super happy I bought this contraption. You should buy one too. I would recommend adding it to your cart with other items that you need that qualify for free shipping to reach the $35 free shipping requirement. If you don't like it, I'll send you a pic of my butt.

Needs to be able to hold heavier phones!
Would have been 5 Stars, if it actually held a bit more weight. I feel like you need to prop it up on whatever you have it clipped to. I will say, it has a VERY strong clip hold. It's very sturdy in that sense. I use this thing every single day! I'll DEFINITELY say that it is worth the price, it works very well hooked to my bed side table, I lay in bed and watch it all night. :)
