Bought it over Black Friday weekend. I really don't get too excited over monitor arms or leave a review unless somewhat negative. I am very impressed with the build and mechanics of this arm. Two things it did for me are getting the right height of my 32 inch monitor instead of using the stock stand. The stock stand was wider and difficult to find a monitor stand to fit which leads to the second item, clearing a bigger amount of space under the monitor that I couldn't use before, such as speakers and other things. Overall pretty clear cut instructions. There are a few videos on youtube that are close to this one, but just take your time installing and you'll do fine. You might want to offset the base if you want the monitor to fit further back. All depends on your setup. I used the grommet and drilled a one inch hole through my desk. The arm and base is solid as a rock. Its a pretty heavy solid wood desk and I believe I could pick up the desk using the arm. All the parts were perfect and heavy duty. The only negative thing is I'm sure someone in the family is going to spot this and want one, so I'll be installing another one pretty soon. Read more
These are very nice monitor arms. Great value, very sturdy, decent instructions with all included parts. They are heavy and look nice. I bought two and have both installed on my desk. Assembly is not hard, but there is more to it than I expected, and you need to pay attention to the instructions. Of course when you have the monitor attached you also have the extra weight to contend with, so make sure you have enough room to assemble and install. I was putting two on the same desk and wanted both screens to butt together in the center, so I needed to move the bases several times further apart to allow them to both monitors to fit properly together. The mount arms have plenty of adjustments, and once you set the joint tensions properly for the weight of your monitor (tight enough to hold in place, loose enough so it can move) , it is easy to move and adjust the arm with monitor and keep the new position. I am very happy with these monitor arm mounts. Read more
I bought two right out of the gate after a TON of research. I wanted the ability to use the clamping option or the desk mount option. My desk is made of two old doors from 1913 and so I need them to be mounted rather than clamped due to its positioning. These I suspect will not disappoint me. I love the pneumatic arms, the stands hold my two 32" curved displays without issue. One thing I would like to see, have the hdmi/dp ports where the two USB ports are in the back of the stand. To me it makes more sense. I mean why string the HDMI/DP cable thru the cable covers - I have two 6' cables and wish I had bought 2 10' cables. The ability to hide the cords is lovely, but I'd rather plug the monitor into the stand and the stand into the pc. Anyway, buying this mount could not be a bad idea. I'm happy I spent the money, the desktop footprint is small, and the setup efficient. I work from home so having a clean workflow is good. Fewer cables even better. I'll post photos once my desk is reorganized... but I think I will love this. Do the research, but for me, this is the only brand I will buy - it is EXCELLENT quality. Sturdy, and clean, and WHITE. It goes well in my workspace. Read more
I haven't been inspired to write many reviews lately, but was oddly thrilled with this purchase. I bought the 6.6-19.8 lbs version of this monitor arm. When I ran an IT department at a hospital, it frankly would have easily run about $150 or more for similar quality. Although the instructions are a little messy, it didn't take long to figure out how to adjust the arm as desired. One tip that isn't mentioned in the instruction manual is to loosen the tension screws on both rotational joints before inserting the bottom arm into the base and/or the top arm into the bottom arm, else you can't insert them fully. I bought this for a desk in my bedroom so that I could swing the monitor from one end of the desk to the other, depending on whether I was working on my PC or watching movies in bed. It has great reach, pivots and swings into position easily and maintains position well. As long as the gas cylinder is of decent quality and holds up from a lot repositioning, I'll be very happy with this purchase. One bonus with this model is cable management - it has built-in covers/guides for running cables and there are also two USB ports which more or less act as a mounting point for USB extension cables to help with cable management.

Was easy to install. Absolutely love the built in cable management and USB plug. Can easily adjust it so I can move my monitor anywhere I want with one hand. Great value for the money you really can't beat it. It seems very well built and stable enough it handles my 32 inch monitor with ease. Read more
