does the base come off for shipping purposes?

The "V" shaped base is flat and is attached by a screw to the pole. The base screws on the pole or screws off the pole.

Yes. One screw holds the base to the pole. User's manual here: http://www.monopricehub.com/files/manuals/5561_Manual_110830.pdf

Owned this stand for about 1 year, Amazon emailed me to respond to this. Yes, the stand comes off, it screws into the base. I have 6 monitors, and I absolutely love this stand. It's the best price out there, it's solid metal, great quality. I was really surprised with it honestly.

Yes. You have to screw the base on when you receive it along with the two adjustable mounting brackets. Comes packed in styrofoam in large rectangular box.

This was part of a full time one-man house remodeling project that lasted 5+ months. Please forgive me if I provide inaccurate information. I purchased a lot of "stuff" during this period. To answer your question, yes, as I recall it was shipped as represented in the photograph.....Jim

I am not sure why you are calling it the base "replacement"... It is THE base and necessary for the installation of the pole. The base does ship in a separate box but is part of the safety pole order. It is not a "separate" purchase. This is a great product!

No, you have to buy it separate, I made the mistake and then had to order the base

Mine did come with a base. Brand new in its original box. I did not get this same style though.

The post is screwed into the base & can be removed. This it does not arrive with the scratching post attached, so you do not have to attach it if you are going to use for a dog toy box.

The base slides on and off like bookends.I keep mine in the shipping container.Make sure to leave a gap for airflow when laying the unit down.Even a thin material laid on top of the vent holes can cause overheating.

Kind of but the main base is secured to the ceiling. It is not difficult to remove from the ceiling base but it's not a quick disconnect.

To my awareness, individual parts are not sold to customers. If the base arrived cracked, your best path is working with the seller in obtaining a replacement. If the base crack was caused by the shipper, please advise the seller.

Without the base it is about a quarter inch thick. The base is not removable.

The base can be removed from the top (it is shipped disassembled), but it is not well designed for using another top. The base fits into a lip on the top.

Yes, it rests perfectly on the base with the cover on. I haven't taken it off since my cover arrived.

I purchased this item over a year ago and at that time, the base was included. I've read the current description and it does say the base is included.

Not really. I think they vacuum pack it for shipping. I would probably just cover it and slide it under a bed or something

The picture in use on the website is accurate. Except for the base, you have to supply your own. We've had ours for about 5 months now and it's been holding up well.

After reading the other answers they seam to have covered it very well, so I have nothing to add. Just one item check and see how much the company you buy from charges for shipping. when I ordered the base it was shipped from other than amazon and they charged me $39.99 where amazon only charged me $3.99 so be careful where you buy from.

Yes. It arrives unattached. You would have to patch the smalk holes for the screws.
