Great monitor arm
this review comes after 2+ years of using this product. i have mounted laptops, 27″ LCDs, 34″ ultrawide LCDS on it. been playing arround with it for vertical and horizontal arrangement, would always recommend it to a friend. note that when u swap for a heavier monitor, u do have to tighten/loosen the screw thing a bit to adjust the weight. once u reach the optimal “zero gravity” setting, u will be a happy camper as i am.the only “con” i can think of is the cable management system. it hides well in the bottom half of the arm, but cables still reveal themselves in the upper arm. (they only have a hindge thing for u to tie it)I’d really like the thumb screws at the VESA spot. makes it easy to remove / swap monitors without any tools assist.

Beautiful and fancy monitor stand
A solid and well-built and well-designed monitor/tablet arm. It has multiple options for installing depending on needs, arm movement and positioning is easy to achieve. Used this for two 23 inch monitors side by side. It is on the heavy side though, even if made of part aluminum. Installation instructions could be better specially on the VESA mount and due to the rigidity of the joints it is quite a challenge positioning the monitor upright that the drawings do not show well Also would good to have more tie-wraps for securing the cords. Pricey but overall, satisfied and happy with this product and would go Ergotron again if needed , highly recommended.

Up/down arrangement much better than left/right
Huge improvement to my desk/life. I got used to up/down instead of left/right monitor arrangement very quickly. Now my monitors take up half the room, I can fit plants on my desk and can see out the window, and I can (pretty) easily adjust my Cintiq on the bottom arm and pull it down flat almost into my lap.This one comes with a short 12″ pole. If you intend to stack monitors larger than 21″, you’ll want the larger 22″ pole. The part number for 2 arms plus long pole is 45-549-026. The part number for the 22″ pole alone is 98-196-026 and can be bought directly from Ergotron via phone.

Great Monitor Arm with Some Design Flaws
This is a great monitor arm overall, but there are some design flaws and / or annoyances. These are largely non-issues once you get the arms setup properly.1. There is a fingernail-sized piece of metal at the bottom of each arm with the VESA mount. The piece of metal is only there to provide some friction so that the arm does not spin too easily. You tighten or loosen the screw to control how easily the arm spins. There is a flaw in the product design where if you loosen the screw too much the piece of metal will fall out. In order to install the VESA arm, I had to tighten the screw just enough so the metal piece would not come out. At the same time, I could not tighten the screw too or else I could not get the arm onto the pole. I dropped that tiny metal piece a number of times before figuring this out. There has to be a better way to integrate this metal piece into the arm somehow?2. Each arm has a plastic dust cap that just sits on top. There is no clip, screw, etc. to hold it in place. As a result, the dust cap will fall off if you need to take the arm off. The other issue with the plastic cap is that it will not stay in place if the arm is touching the base of the extension arm. The gap at the top of the arm will not be deep enough to hold the plastic cap. You have to raise the arm a few millimetres up so that you create a large enough gap at the top of the arm so that the plastic will stay in.3. The small cable management clips on the underside of each arm are quite hard to use. On one of the arms there are two small hard to reach hooks that you attach plastic cable ties to. The issue is that the plastic cable ties fall off very easily if you ever touch your monitor cables. The second arm has a plastic cover on the underside, but it can be tough to put back when there are a bunch of cables inside. Also, the gap between plastic cover and the pole is quite small so you might have trouble routing multiple or thick cables.

I would find it hard to believe that there is any stand better than this one
Bought this for work. Main reason was to get my screens higher so I could sit correctly. These are extremely well made, very solid and strong. most parts are metal. Very very versatile. My colleague was jealous so he bought one as well. I would find it hard to believe that there is any stand better than this one. Easy to put together. Gives many options on how to attach to desk which is handy. super easy to move screens. Love this product. This is how products should be made and how they should work. Perfect!

Excellent monitor arm…
I own this monitor arm, in any case, the instruction included IMO are the best in the industry (the pictures describe everything). These are not “ikea” type pictograms! lolIn regards to the “stiff” arm joints, they (ergotron) include allen keys that adjust the stiffness on the joints… the adjustment points are “hidden” inside the ends of the joints, and the monitor tilt stiffness is adjusted underneath that joint.The arms themselves have channels to hide the cables from the monitor, and they have hooks the the cables ties hang from, at the start and ends of the arms. They supply covers that fit inside the arm channels… so that with a bit of effort you can get a very cleam looking monitor setup…Ergotron also sells Heavy duty monitor arms (only difference is the stiffness of the monitor arms to allow for heavy monitors… meaning the weight recommendation isn’t due to the strength of the monitor arms, but instead the holding strength of the joints to prevent sagging of the monitor…The monitor arms operate on a cam and roller principal, which is bounce-proof compared to gas cylinders…Ergotron also makes Monitor accessories such as a quick release plate…

Short version :_____________Pros:- easy to assemble- very robust and sturdy, will hold up very well within guidelines- fairly decent free range of motionCons:- dat price tag $$$$- certain features like cable routing and swivel leave some very minor grievancesLONG version :______________You don’t have to read it all, but if you’re already looking into buying this, there’s a decent chance you are in a similar situation. If I was being nitpicky this would be a 4/5, but seeing as how there’s really no other manufacturer that readily provides a solution to my problem it really is just the best I can get, from what I’ve seen.I upgraded from an LG 34UC89G-B 34″ 21:9 to an Alienware AW3423DW 34″ 21:9 and wanted to keep both monitors, with the new one on bottom and old on mounted on top. My old 2 arm mount was not going to be able to support this much weight as my other monitor was just a 27″ 16:9 and it barely held those together. I didn’t want to have to screw anything into my wall and I wasn’t 100% sure on my desk space so I wanted free moving arms for orienting the monitors before finalizing where I want them to stay.Once I got this I was able to set my monitors up stacked on top of each other. While the bottom one isn’t quite sitting as low as it can go, it’s not far off. But the top monitor is just about using the mount’s maximum capabilities in terms of being able to space these monitors apart while still leaving a tiny bit of room for adjustment. I have been able to pull my top monitor forward and rotate it portrait for documents and such though I have not done the same with the bottom monitor.______________________________________________________Overall actual use after setup:9/10The monitors themselves are not on the extreme end of heavy but they’re not light. They both fall within the specifications of the mount. But where Ergotron excels with the LX is that it will actually support curved monitors up to that weight as well, as the curvature changes the center of balance of the overall monitor and puts more stress when extended out than your typical flat monitor. This is usually where you can see other people having issues with sag when approaching the upper limits of other mounting systems. These have not sagged at all since tightening down the screws and move with a fair bit of range, staying in place afterwards. However I do not extensively move my monitors around often and don’t know how well it would hold up if you just kept moving them around constantly, though with the construction quality I’d wager it would be fine.One thing I was told from a friend who has the same mount: if your monitor is really bottom heavy for whatever reason and you decide to use it portrait style, the minor taps and thumps from your desk will cause it to try to rotate back to a horizontal position, skewed about 5-10 degrees. It’s very minor and just takes a quick second to readjust but keep in mind that it may happen as 1 side is now far heavier than the other.______________________________________________________Setup process:9/10The setup itself was very easy. I saw other reviews having issues with it and maybe getting some help but if you follow the instructions provided, it is extremely easy, especially compared to setting up other mounts where you have to screw in the whole assembly to the monitor and take the entire piece and clamp it on your desk. You need to clamp down the base and bottom arm portions of the mount, then screw in the upper portions to the monitors BEFORE putting the rest of the mount together. The top arm portion falls right into the bottom and you just tighten the screw afterwards. If you can physically lift your monitor + 8 ounces or so, you will have no issues putting it together. One thing I will note: tightening the actual swivel head on the monitor so that the tension matches the weight of the monitor may be difficult if you are short since it adjusts from the top.WARNING: If your desk is particle board or something, I highly recommend buying reinforcement plates for the clamp. The clamp that the LX comes with is fairly sizeable but if you’re going to be putting 50 lbs of pressure on 1 spot on your desk, it’s best to not worry about the weight snapping your desk in half. If your desk isn’t sturdy material: the arm mount will hold up, your desk will not. You’re already splurging on this mount, don’t cheap out and break your desk and potentially your monitors by skimping out on a $10 metal plate. If you don’t want to go that route and don’t care much about aesthetics, you can just use some wood.______________________________________________________Cable management:5/10Cable management looked like a mere afterthought. It’s serviceable and hides the cables well enough but it’s nothing to write home about. This feature has been better executed in cheaper models.______________________________________________________Range of motion:8/10Range of motion is better than most for sure. While it will still hold them in place, some positions and setups can be limited if you have enormous monitors. If you’re using 2 24″ monitors you will have zero issues, but the more you approach 40″, even on 1 monitor, the options get more and more limited.______________________________________________________Final notes:I wish the pole was longer. That would solve a lot of issues people have had with mobility using large monitors. The arm mounts themselves hold up well, the fitting of large monitors just leaves something to be desired, especially out of something as expensive as this.
