Ergotron HX HD Premium Heavy Duty Gaming Monitor Arm Single Monitor Desk Mount for 1000R Curved Ultrawide Monitors

I just installed the Ergotron HX Desk Monitor Arm with HD Pivot and couldn't be happier. The thing is an absolute beast in terms of heavy duty build quality. It holds up my 33 lb. Samsung 49" super ultrawide monitor with ease. Installing the arm to the back of the monitor and securing it to the back left-hand corner of my desk was super straightforward. My monitor is now at eye level and the extra desk space is fantastic. The price is steep, but it's totally worth it. My only regret is not getting this monitor arm sooner. Read more

I originally purchased a cheaper brand mount for my G9 and it did not go well. The install and removal were nothing short of a nightmare. I did not want to go through that experience again, so I decided to spend quite a bit more for the mount that came highly recommended. As soon as you pick this thing up, you can feel the difference in quality. The weight, mounting pieces, and the pivot made me feel like I wouldn't have anything to worry about trusting it with my monitor. Install was a bit tricky, but not because of the mount, but the desk I was using. It was narrow and the top is very thin. I originally tried drilling a hole due to my desk having a bar blocking the place where the clamp goes, but it stuck way too far out. I decided to buy a 2x4, cut it to size and making a channel that goes over the bar. This did the trick and created a great platform to clamp onto. The rest of the process was cake. The arm needed an adjustment to support the weight but the pivot, the pivot was perfect right out the box. Raising and lowering the monitor kept it level and never once did it drop. I wish this was a little cheaper but you get what you pay for. My only gripes would be with cable management and not being able to turn the arm more than 90 degrees left or right from the center position. This is just me nitpicking though because there really isn't much else to complain about. Read more

Strong and quality made but there are less expensive alternatives e.g., $130 Huanuo brand that are equal in quality and functionality. Read more

Excellent quality (apart from the *very* cheap plastic cable containment door under the arm). Easy to assemble and, after adjusting the pressure on the lift (upwards), my LG 49" was held without issue. Mine is about 25ish pounds and I suspect this arm can hold much more as the literature suggests. There is no bound in my set up - I am a programmer so there is lots of rapid typing. It's definitely pricey but it does exactly what it promises to do. And it does it well and with heavy, well made, quality parts. Read more

This is the best arm I have ever owned and the most expensive as well. The product is made out of high quality metal and very sturdy. It can hold the Samsung Odyssey G9 with ease. If you have a monitor with a 1000R this is a must have. This monitor is heavy and curve just adds to it knocking the center of gravity off for the majority of arms. This will cause the tilt to not work correctly or not at all. I've researched a lot of arms before picking this because it was just a lot of money to spend. Finally I figured since I spent the money on a expensive monitor, I should do the same for the arm. There's nothing like worrying that you may come home and find out that your low quality arm has failed and your monitor is now broken because you wanted to save a few bucks. This arm provides piece of mind knowing that the company has a proven track record with quality made products. It comes with a 10 year warranty which is outstanding. Do yourself a favor and get the arm your monitor deserves, you wont regret it. Read more

To begin with, this is obviously a very well built product with quality parts, as it would have to be to support a monitor like the G9 (as I'm using). Further, there's very little wiggle and it keeps its position very well. So kudos, it does the main job well. But... the price is exorbitant. A basic monitor arm costs literally one tenth the price, there's absolutely no way this requires ten times the materials or engineering, you are definitely paying for both the brand name and the fact that no one else (that I know of) makes a stand with this weight capacity. Supply and demand, I guess, but the stand that comes with the G9 is so excellent I really question if I made the right choice. Assembly is pretty straightforward, though if you have the G9 you will definitely want a second pair of hands actually lift it onto the mount. Adjustment in all directions works well enough but it really wants to move in some ways more than others. For example, it rotates (the one adjustment I never want to make) far too easily so I'm always leveling back out after moving it. And of the three main pivots, the middle one moves much more easily than the other two so actually moving it backwards and forwards it is a matter of swinging it side to side until you can get each pivot to move the way you want. It takes a good 30-60 seconds of wiggling just to push it back. Maybe this is unavoidable due to the monitor weight, but don't think this is something you can just adjust on a whim. Also, the depth adjustment is surprisingly short. I measured a measly 18cm of range - they advertise more, but that requires pushing it off to one side which isn't going to be a good option for most people. This is partly because the main pivot where it meets the desk is limited to 180 degrees from left to right, not ~360 as you might expect. It's puzzling because you can rotate it the full 360 by removing the set screw and it seems to operate just fine, but obviously that's risky to do without knowing why they limited it in the first place. If someone from Ergotron reads this, I'd love to know why it's limited and how dangerous it is to use without the screw. Finally, the cable management is, as always from Ergotron, hugely disappointing. I can't believe they still don't make this a priority. There's ways they route cables: first, two little velcro strips that are ugly, hard to close neatly, and tend to come out and are a huge headache to get back in. Worse, they don't even hide the cables! It's the cheapest, laziest solution imaginable. The other is a cavity on the rear arm that's covered by a plastic sheath. This at least looks nice once they're tucked in, though doing so is a pain and getting the plastic part on an off is rather tricky. I don't exaggerate when I say I've bought sub-$50 monitor arms with more elegant and thoughtful cable management solutions. Figure it out, Ergotron! I'm paying you way too much for this malarky!

Price is too high IMO, but the build quality is better than other arms I’ve seen on the market. If you’re looking for the best, this is it. If you’re looking for good value, I look elsewhere. I run an Odyssey G9 and I’m able to move my monitor easily, but the arm does not move or sag on its own at all Read more
