Initial impressions - Very good for Blue Iris
This is my initial "15 minutes" post setup review. I am impressed overall so far. I will say that I will probably not use more than 50% of the advertised features as I use Blue Iris 5 for all my IP cameras. This means I can't comment on the onboard SD storage, motion tracking, cloud storage, etc. I also cannot comment on how this camera is setup if this is your one and only camera and foray into IP cameras. This is purely from a Blue Iris 5 user's standpoint.I have owned many generic IP cameras over the years and I have observed the length of time to setup get worse. Many require you to bend over backwards to configure--like installing a very sketchy app/browser extension on your phone or PC. The Amcrest ProHD seems to buck that trend somewhat because I was able to access the web interface without issue after figuring out the IP address it received from my DHCP server. No sketchy extensions to install! Nice!Once logged in you're greeted with a modern web interface with easy to understand settings. I made a beeline for the TCP-IP settings to set a static IP. The IP switched on instantly after hitting Save. I then Googled for a firmware update and that installed without issue. I am using this camera with the wired Ethernet connection so I can't comment on WIFI. The fact that it has no antenna is a bit concerning however.Setup in Blue Iris 5 was simple, there is a pre-configured setting for this model. The video came up right away with full Pan-Tilt functioning.As I stated in the beginning of this review, these are my initial impressions. I will update as needed if things change, but so far this looks like a winner.PROS:Quick and easy setup for Blue Iris users, easy web GUI accessGood quality video, decent wide angle viewMicro USB powered, it's about time this became a thing!CONS:Nothing yet

Better thah I imagined.
It came as promised, and was as easy to assemble as advertised. Even better, it is sturdy and totally unobtrusive. This is exactly what I hoped for.

This laptop stand is exactly what I needed. It is as pictured. Super easy and quick to assemble! I love that I can adjust the high if I need to. The holes allow for great airflow! I love it.

I would buy again.
Used as a printer stand. Printer base was much larger than the stand, but it still worked.

Exactly what I needed
I have a laptop that I work on with a separate monitor attached - but I run the two with a mouse and keyboard as if it's a dual monitor set up. I wanted something that would get these two to approximately the same height and so this adjustable stand is great. Added benefits: the stand is breathable for my laptop and allows for convenient storage underneath so that I don't lose desk space.

Just what I wanted!
I wanted a stand for my laptop so that it would be easier to view; this stand is sturdy, very easy to assemble and the height is adjustable. I would buy from this company again.

Better than I expected
So far these have held up to our coastal environment well. They are bright and last til about dawn after a full charge. I’ve had several months now. They are holding up better than the pathway lights seen in the picture with icy are already rusting. These get wet Twice daily from my sprinkler. I live about 1000 feet from the ocean so the environment is harsh

Just what I needed!
I’ve got a home office setup that I use extensively. My problem as of late has been transferring my gaze from my two desk monitors to my laptop. It’s a good 8” of vertical distance from the bottom of the monitors to the bottom of the laptop screen and about a foot in distance from the center of the monitors to the center of the laptop screen. This constant readjustment to look at multiple screen heights bothered and then flat out annoyed me. I needed to find a solution. This stand is that solution. Perfectly easy to set up by screwing in the legs and then the knobs are easy to push in and slide to the height that’s needed. Best purchase of my whole home office. There’s different heights but I need the highest and it’s still stable. And there’s venting at the bottom to keep my laptop cool. So that’s nifty.
