I want to use this on a treadmill to put tablet at eye level. Will tablet stay put on this with all that vibration? Or does the ball joint get loose?

I wouldn't recommend it. The arm is pretty strong, but since you are using it on a treadmill the vibration plus the weight of the tablet might bring the arm down.If you find a flat surface next to your treadmill you might have better luck.

There is no ball joint. The whole thing is one flexible snake, like on a gooseneck lamp. Stiffness-wise, it is pretty stiff; my personal feeling is that it would stand up just fine, but it might shake too much to be readable.

It holds well without hanging. It's just too close to my eyes, I keep my tablet on the table in front of the elliptical, at a distance, but everyone's eyes are different.

It has stayed put under our treadmill since we installed it. But, if I had to move it, it feels as if it would stay together pretty good to be temporarily relocated to another spot. Even if it were to come apart slightly, its very easy to reassemble.

I use mine for running and it never falls off. It's a pretty tight fit. I never had a problem with them at the gym.

I have not experienced this. However, my treadmill deck is high, so the desk is at its lowest setting. It is quite stable.

I am 5'1" and use the TrekDesk. I was meticulous in measuring the lowest height of the trekdesk (from scematics on their website) and then checking the height of the treadmill panels before I bought a treadmill. The bottom of my treadmill panel is just below the lip of the desk. Also, I put a rubber mat under the treadmill to raise it up a bit. They recommend that anyway in case of oil leak. Mine works fine. After a few tens of times of jumping on and off I have to adjust the belt.

I've had mine for almost a year now and the ball joint barely moves. Granted, I very rarely adjust it. I'd think the more often you move it, the looser it would get. But, mine has been in the same positition this whole time and it does not move.

Be aware it's a heavy treadmill like most high quality running units, so even though it has wheels unless your on concrete or wood floor they sink into the carpet. It's almost easier to pull the treadmill where you need it to go vs. trying to push through a door since view will be obstructed. Not something i would want to move around on a daily basis.

It is a fairly steady device but if you are expecting to put your full weight against it laterally at the top, I don't think it will hold that. I It is a friction mount and will pull loose with enough force. Best for stability and steadying use.

I have this mount in my truck. As I recall, only one of the arms rotates and is spring loaded. It presses against the tablet and provides enough force to hold it securely in place.

You may have difficulty keeping it in place. I use it for sit ups in my gym and it shifts farely easily. (at least for an adult)

While I am not that tall, I have no doubt that it can extend more than enough to support this activity with room to spare. In addition, the stability of the unit will allow you to adjust it exactly how you wish without having to worry about it falling over or dropping the tablet.

I only use mine on a treadmill and have had no problems at all with it. It comes with 2 batons which you strap the buttons 2 also I have put Velcro on the back of my iPad and to the display of my treadmill so that I can watch what I need to to play the games. I would recommend this as it makes my workout go much quicker and I have run for longer times than I have ever done before.

When you raise the desk, it moves toward you a few inches. I don't use it with a treadmill. I think you're asking if it will do that, and so the answer is a conditional yes. I'm out of town now so I can't be more definitive. If you can wait until Friday, I'll give you more detail.

Once you tighten it, don't move it. Otherwise, I am not sure. I disliked this product for that reason.

Not really. Mine is hanging from the garage ceiling, so it shakes only when the wife is running on the treadmill upstairs. It's pretty solid.

Not me. It sounds like you may need to tighten the piece that grips the ball joints of the base and part that grips the tablet.
