Excellent artistic product very well made in the US. Love supporting small businesses with quality products over the trash from Am@z💩n.
i was moving when i ordered and package was “lost” for a couple days but it was the post office fault but these guys gave me tips for locating it and i did!
Very polite and professional with a dash of quirkiness. i tell everyone i know with an iphone about these beautiful stands
😍🤩
Great for cooking while looking at recipes, video calls, very sturdy and functional in addition to great design.
Hopefully they’ll do brushed steel instead of only black at some point *hint hint* lol

Outstanding customer service
I was so impressed with the customer service! They reached out to me to double-check that I had ordered the correct size for my item (I had not) and were so helpful in helping me correct my mistake. Every time I contacted them I got a real person, and they were all very knowledgeable. The products are high-quality and came quickly. I am extremely happy with my experience!

We’re sorry for any confusion around sizing. For anyone reading this, we list compatible device models under the “Additional Information” section on each product page to help guide your selection. That said, we know it’s easy to overlook and are actively exploring ways to make this information even more visible.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It sounds like you're referring to your original stand from back in 2014—a model that has since been retired and replaced by the PED5 Grand iPhone Stand, which is made from solid steel and backed by a 3-year warranty.
We’ve made a number of updates over the years to improve durability, function, and compatibility with newer devices. That said, we completely understand how customers can develop a preference for older models they’ve used for years.
If you’re ever looking for something closer to your original setup or have questions about options that might better suit your needs, we’d love to help.
Thanks again for your continued support!
truly care about their customers!

Much better TV stand
I needed to squeeze a new counter tv under a kitchen cabinet. TO's mount was about a 1/2" shorter than the factory mount while looking 100% better and lowering the center of gravity. So glad we found the Thought Out Company...

Awesome customer service
I purchased their PED5-COIL-H iPhone stand to use in my Porsche Cayenne - it fit the bill perfectly.. I needed something that wouldn’t block the vents or take up one of the cup holders and fit into the center console “ashtray”. Liked it so much, I asked if they offered a double-ended holder (two devices),they didn’t but offered to make one for me. It came within a week!
Thought Out Company went above and beyond. Great product, great customer service and communications.

Excellent Customer Service
We needed these ASAP to save our Non-Profit Org quite a bit of money and the Customer Service Team worked with us to ship what they had and then ship the remainder as soon as they could. Very much appreciated.

People were helpful. Somehow my purchase was sent to the wrong address across town. It was corrected but then had to go pick it up from ups station. I had to go twice they did not have it 1st time I went even tho I had the stub from ups. It was a real hassle. Your product had to be returned because it was the wrong size.
