HEXCAL Single Monitor Arm, Up to 35 inches Monitor Mount, 11 kg (24.2 lbs) with Built-in Cable Management and Free VESA 75x75mm or 100x100mm - Black

After days of searching for a stand to use with my Cintiq, I took a risk buying this one. There weren't any reviews, so it was a little nerve-wracking (especially for the $100 price tag). DESPITE MY WORRIES, the item arrived and proceeded to completely WOW me!!!It was easy to put together, with surprisingly few parts or instructions. Its durability was immediately put to the test, since it arrived when I was crunching for an animation. After two straight days of use (seriously I got like 3 hours of sleep bc deadlines), I CAN confirm that this stand does everything it says it does. It's sturdy enough that I can lean onto it while drawing those tiny details and it does not tilt-- you tighten the hinges with a tool they send and BOOM no wobbliness! The angle you can adjust the screen to is perfect! The height sadly isn't adjustable, but it's already at a wonderful height so that wasn't even an issue while I was working. It's also really aesthetic! It doesn't look clanky or bulky, and it's smooth so I can decorate it with stickers haha.I would post some pictures, but after hitting that mega-crunch deadline my workspace isn't photo-ready 😂 But trust me, this thing works like a dream. It makes drawing so much easier!!! I'm really looking forward to using it in the future too!!!

This Single Monitor Arm is a solid choice for anyone needing a sturdy mount for monitors up to 35 inches and 11 kg. The build quality feels reliable, and the built-in cable management system helps keep my desk neat and organized. Installation was straightforward, and the included VESA compatibility ensures it works with a wide range of monitors. While the adjustability is good, I found that fine-tuning the tension for heavier monitors required extra effort.

2 things I really liked the arm. 1) it looks very sleek and very good, but you don’t buy a monitor arm for looks, especially when it’s behind the monitor most of the time; 2) the build quality is definitely worthy of its price (it’s certainly no ergotron, but a lot of components got close - not all though)Setting up is fairly easy as many out there. Cable management was very easy for me, which is a huge plus.The arm itself has quite a few joints for adjustment, but it also require quite a bit of space for it to move around.Here are the things that really fell short of being a great monitor arm.1) the biggest issue for me is the weight rating. The monitor is said to be able to handle up to 24lb monitor. The monitor I originally intended to mount is about 19.5lb, and the arm was really struggling to handle the weight. The much lighter 10 - 15lb monitor I used later on went much better.2) With original heavy monitor, I was also placing the arm is a tight location and it was another huge struggle to maneuver leading me to give up and use the monitor elsewhere with much more space and less weight.3) The vesa mount plate is made out plastic. I guess it’s an indication that the arm isn’t meant for anything heavy. With the plastic quick connect plate, the mounted monitor is not as solid as it otherwise could’ve been. The plate is also prone to bending if the back side of the monitor is not flat, which is the case for me.Overall, I do like this monitor arm, but probably not at $100 price point. If it were closer to $50 or $60, I’d say it’s a solid 4-star item. Quality seems good, but the over-stated weight rating may become a deal breaker for those having heavy monitor in mind.
