Need a monitor arm? BUY THIS. Job done.
I bought this after my previous monitor arm (Which was the first item that shows up when you search "Monitor Arm" on Amazon) which cost a reasonable £29.99 sheared in half dropping my monitor after only 18 months of use. The monitor wasnt even out of the rated weight and thankfully wasn't damaged, but a close call.I saw a Linus Tech Tips link for this arm and despite being a little put of by the price could see it was an excellent product and found a YouTube video on it that showed me the product. I wasn't wrong. Really Really happy with this!Very easy to assemble one piece has the tall pole attached to a desk clamp which I clamped to the table (It does include other optiona than the clamp if you want to drill and bolt this through the desk but can't see a need). Then another arm which is screwless slots onto that pole in seconds. Then I screwed my monitor onto the third arm with the 4 Vesa mounting screws and slipped that onto the arms and that was it. Done. You can adjust a silver ring on the tall pole with an allen key to move the bracket higher or lower on the pole and adjust the tension so your monitor is moveable but doesn't sag with a second allen key. Took us 10 minutes.Pros:Excellent Range of Movement best I've seen up and down quite high 360 rotation if your cables allow.Exceptionally sturdy and heavy build quality, will support almost any modern monitor weights you can throw at it.Good looking in Chrome and black.Easy assembly in 10 to 30 mins for a partially diasbled person with one helper.Range of mounting options included 4 thumbscrews to mount the screen nice touch if you want to remove screen often or normal screws for permanent use or more security.Cons:Potentially cost prohibitive for some people but you really do get what you pay for and if you can save or stretch for it, it really is worth it.Summary: An excellent design and high quality item which is a rarity amongst a sea of mass produced rubbish. Maybe the price should be a tiny bit lower but considering the sheer weight of metal used and the design time they must have put into it to keep it sleek yet functional and everything included is still worth it.If you need a monitor arm don't make my mistake with a cheaper option unless say you had a 15" LCD that weighs the same as a feather or don't value your screen and buy this one. Hope it helps!

High quality and ease of use
It was very easy to install and works perfectly, it's a replacement for a cheaper version (less than 50 pounds) and I can tell now it's totally worth to invest more on these kind of things. The previous one couldn't hold my 32" monitor and it was imposible to adjust. This one stays in place no matter how small the adjustment. Highly recommend this arm

Expensive but what I needed
I put off buying this for a long time due to its high price tag but I eventually bit the bullet and it’s changed my desk life completely, it keeps my huge graphics tablet out of the way when I’m not using it and moves smoothly, while still being sturdy and holding the weight of me drawing on it for many hours per day.With my set up specifically, I will be buying an arm extension for it as it ended up being a tiny bit short for my particular needs. I think it’s really worth it! Especially considering the tablet it’s holding is extremely expensive, I wouldn’t want to get a cheap knock off arm for that kind weight 🙏

The Best Monitor Arm I’ve Ever Used
So let me start by saying that this is the absolute best monitor arm I’ve ever used. The stability, the strength, and how universal the construction of it all is, it’s actually astounding. The maximum size and weight each arm is rated for is 27in and 20lbs, but the curved 32in MSI Optix I have on a single arm is at least 20lbs. I haven’t modified the strength or locks on either of the arms or mounts, and they feel rock solid.Ergotron actually thought of everything. My desk, like many others, has a ‘lip’ or edge that hangs off to increase the structural integrity of the desktop. This started to worry me as I wasn’t sure if the clamp-press mechanism would be wide enough for the edge ‘lip’ hanging from my desk. When it arrived it was exactly that size fully widened, so it wouldn’t fit. However in the box there were parts to convert the base of the arm to attach to a desk via a bolt through a hole(e.g. a wire organizer hole, drill hole). This saved me from having to heavily modify my desk or return the arm, and made the entire building process a breeze even with hurdles in the way.

Extremely sturdy and fulfills a fairly uncommon niche
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.

Va perfecto para mi Wacom Cintiq HD22
En vez de comprarme el brazo que vende Wacom (que son sobre 400 euros) probé a comprar éste, que es mucho más barato y muy robusto. Llevo con la Wacom enganchada al brazo desde hace casi 2 años, y nunca tuve que apretar nada. Va perfecto y aguanta bien el peso.

Sturdy and easy to install
The arm feels really sturdy, it is mostly build from (I believe) steel and It is definitely an arm that you can trust with an expensive monitor. For this price I wish it had better cable management system but overall it still looks and performs great.
