I am very happy with the excellent quality and materials of the product. It securely holds the Airport Extreme and the fit is excellent. The manufacturing tolerances are superb. In no way does this mar, disfigure or alter your Airport Extreme.
The only minor negative that I have is that the included instructions could be better. There are a few different options for fastening the Airmount to the wall or ceiling as it relates to locations of screw holes and screw sizes and this could have been more clearly communicated. This minor complaint would not stop me from buying another Airmount if I needed one and would not keep me from recommending this item.
Botom line... if you need to mount your Airport Extreme to the wall or ceiling then buy this item... it does the job extremely well in a very unobtrusive manner... just be ready to "noodle" through the fastening options for the mount itself. Once fastened your Airport Extreme will slide right in... no problems. H-Squared AIRMOUNT-S Air Mount for Airport Extreme
This is a great mount for the AirPort Extreme. The quality is excellent, along the lines of what you would expect from Apple themselves (it's no wonder that Apple sells this on their website as well). Included is a mount for the power adapter as well. This made for a very simple, fast and clean vertical install of my AirPort.
The unit that holds the Airport fits & works perfectly. However, the unit which holds the power adapter does not fit--the holes do not line up. I did contact the manufacturer and they responded right away. I'm currently awaiting a replacement. **Received the replacement and it fits perfectly! Just must have been a production error, but the company did take care of the issue. Thanks!
I'm very pleased with the quality of the materials. It allows for easy and versatile mounting. Just be careful--especially if you use a drill to drive the screws--that you do not drive the screws in too far. It's quite possible to crack/break the mount if the screws are driven in too far. Otherwise, it's a great way to place the wifi unit in more effective (and still attractive) locations.
Perfect fit for your Apple Airport Express wireless router! It also has a very sleek and modern look, and is totally inconspicuous anywhere you mount it (the router itself is not inconspicuous since it's a 6 in x 6 in x 2 in box, but the mount, made of a clear plastic, is practically invisible!). Lastly, as an added bonus, it also comes with a mount for the adapter of the router, so you don't have to worry about the adapter dangling freely from the wall or ceiling. Worth the price tag. I would give it a five, but I decided to give it a four instead because I've only had for about 2 months. But if it lasts intact for a year or more, then I will say 5-stars for sure!!
This product ships in very sturdy packaging, includes 4 fasteners, detailed instructions, and even a holder for the external power supply. All in all, it makes mounting an extreme base station securely a fairly simple affair. The many holes in the main mount allow you to attach it to either standardized hole patterns or drill & mount your own. Clearly, the folk who designed the thing went out of their way to offer as many pre-drilled holes as one might think are necessary.
I have few complaints about this unit other than it would have been nice to have 6 fasteners per box (four for the mount, two for the power supply) and a different material might be a better choice. Specifically, the mounts are made of clear acrylic or polycarbonate. The trouble with the material on hand is that it is possible to overdrive a screw and then split the underlying plastic mount quite easily. So don't overdrive screws, especially on the power supply mount (the other one has more give). In my opinion, a slightly less sexy material like glass-filled polycarbonate or acrylic would have made a better choice, making the thing less brittle. But it would not look as nice, and I suppose some people mount the extreme ABS in a exposed location, so looks matter to that customer population.
All that said, I still think this is a terrific mounting system, though, like others, I feel it is overpriced. But, with nary a competitor in this market segment, why should I be surprised that the mount would be value-priced? - Airport - 80211n - Airport Extreme - Airport Express'
