Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Easy to assemble and sturdy. Solid, well-engineered, and a fine compliment to imac's design motif. It is imperative that you follow the simple assembly directions in order.

The twelve south hirise for imac is exactly as described and does just what it says. I understand that this is a discontinued product, but i'm glad i purchased it. Love it. Worth every penny.

Face plates can be used either front or back, or not at all. My only complaint is the front grille only sits flush when the logo is upside down. This is because the four round divots in the front panel align exactly with the slightly protruding four r...  Read More

Hirise is hands down the best stand for anyone with an imac, cinema or thunderbolt display. It goes well with my 2014 27 retina imac. Unit is slightly wider then the imac base. I have a late-2014 mac mini that fits perfects in this device with a 24 ap...  Read More

It is also aesthetically appealing and worthy of being paired with an apple product. If you are an apple groupie you will love this as the aluminum matches up perfectly as well.



Cons

The finish is cheaply painted silver, not legit aluminum like my macbook pro. The photos of the product give the impression that they front panel is on a 'hinge or some other mechanism. Please do not use this for your mac mini.

Quality


Was a little put off by the price but the quality and craftsmanship are worth it


This is a sturdy and reliable product


The machining quality is kind of crappy on the edges and in particular i have a burr on the leading edge that shines a little d...  Read More


The finish quality on this was not good the front vented panel is actually nasty looking

Price


I just wish the price is a bit more affordable

Packaging/appearance


If you care for such details the packaging was overthetop clean and stylish with foam rubber keeping all the pieces neatly snug


Even the packaging and presentation out of the box were a nice touch


Close but not as good as apple packaging

Competitiveness


Assuming you have one of these 3 devices you most likely value both form and function and versus its competitors the hirise is unparalleled


This is a fivestar item in every respect


For 50 and a noname burrs might be ok but for 70 and twelve south well thats quality slipping right there


Unfortunately rain design did not have a comparable model to the hirise

    The front of the mbp extends about 1


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This is because the four round divots in the front panel align exactly with the slightly protruding four round magnets on the front edges of the hirise


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I could store other things under the base but i dont


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For some reasons the thunderbolt display is not the same height as the imac


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For someone who heavily relies on dual screens uneven height is a major problem

    The only other choices here are essentially copies of this one
