Is the base (clip) on this heavy enough to stand on its own without being clipped to a desk?

It will stand up on its own, but the whole light is very lightweight and it would not take much to knock it over.

No, it won't stand on its own. I have had mine for quite a while and have only had to change the batteries once - used on a music stand.

Yes it can stand alone but if lightly knocked against it will wobble over. Left alone it is quite stable.

NO. Maybe if you buy a pile of silly putty and stick it on that. It's light and flimsy.

It is a free standing unit. I do not have mine bolted to desk. I have two heavy monitors and the stand holds both of them just fine. Everyone in my office that see's my monitor stand loves my new set up.

I would say no due to the fact that is is a very low stand and truthfully, I don't believe it is sturdy enough for a desk.

yes,If it is attached to something else, or having it's own support stand.tim

The base is fairly heavy but to ensure it does not tip in any way I have placed a small rock on it. The base does not have any holes in it to screw it to a table but I'm sure if you have a good drill and sharp bits you could do this yourself.

It will stand on its own. Soft sides with three rigid dividers. It has Velcro strips on the bottom to hold it in place (read the full product description). I've purchased three and will purchase more when needed. I recommend.

No, I would say not. It is not sturdy enough to stand alone in most cases, it should be mounted. But since it is made for a corner, a little velcro can make it steady.

Absolutely not. The attaching parts for this drawer are barely even strong enough to support the drawer, let alone a laptop. My drawer broke off and stripped the holes out in the process not even a week after I bought this desk, and there was nothing heavy in the drawer at all.

No, the base is not weighted; you have to use the clip. The neck is seven inches long.

Yes. But it is so light that it tips over. Needs a sturdier base in my opinion.

absolutely. And it will also stand on its own, without anything to lean against. Just did it this afternoon at the airport.

Absolutely not, it is bulky, fragile, and unstable to stand on its own. I regret buying this product. One more thing, the earrings fall off as soon as you touch it or try to get an earring.

The base is heavy enough to hold dual monitors firmly in place. If you don't want the mounting feet on the stand, then you could drill a hole through your desk and install just the upright pole for the monitors. I know you mentioned you didn't want to drill, but just wanted to let you know the 2 standards mounting options for this stand.

Well, I haven't taken it off, but I put the stand on by myself. I'd recommend two people, just because it's heavy, but all I needed to put it on was me and a screwdriver. Unless there are some one way clips I didn't notice along the way, taking the stand off shouldn't be a problem.

Yes it's sturdy and feel it will last. The base is heavy giving excellent support to the plastic extension arm. It has been a nice addition to my home office.

I would like to say it is both stable and tall enough. It will definitely stand on its own, but like any tall object, it can be knocked over . Just make sure you put it out of the way because this ornament sounds rather expensive :]

If you are attaching it to a desk, no. If it is left free-standing it definitely needs to be slightly folded to stay upright.
