Ergotron – LX Premium Monitor Arm, Single Monitor Desk Mount – fits Flat Curved Ultrawide Computer Monitors up to 34″, 3.2-11.3kg, VESA 75x75mm or 100x100mm – Tall Pole, Polished Aluminum (45-295-026)

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!

I recently purchased the Ergotron LX Arm for my LG32GP850 monitor and I have to say, I'm really impressed with this product. The installation process was really easy - the clamp stand was the only part that needed screws, and everything else just attaches seamlessly. One thing that really stood out to me was the quality of the construction. This monitor arm is solid and sturdy, and it easily supports my large monitor without any wobbling or sagging. I also love the range of motion that the arm provides - it's really easy to adjust the height and tilt of the monitor to find the perfect viewing angle. Unfortunately, I did receive a broken extension piece with my arm, but I was really pleased with the customer service that Amazon provided. They offered to replace the piece or give me a partial refund of £25 - which I thought was a really fair solution. Overall, I would definitely recommend the Ergotron LX Arm to anyone who is looking for a high-quality monitor arm. It's a great product that provides excellent value for money, and the customer service from Amazon was top-notch. If you're in the market for a monitor arm, this one is definitely worth considering!

I bought this arm to mount my 40" Philips 4065UC monitor. It's a big screen and fairly heavy, so I wanted a good quality arm to mount it on. There's no doubt that the Ergotron is exactly that. It's fairly easy to set up, looks incredibly substantial and is clearly of superior quality. I have no concerns about its ability to reliably hold the screen. Once mounted, the screen is easy to adjust, featuring swivel, rotate and tilt mechanisms that can all be activated with a minimum of pressure. It's very handy having a screen on an arm like this, especially when you have multiple monitors as I do. There's no doubt that this is the Mercedes of monitor arms. So why only four stars? Well, I regret spending so much on it. Yes it's substantial and solid, and looks like a top quality device. But once installed you'll never actually see it, so its external apperance is irrelevant, except for reassuring you when you first get it out of the packaging and set it up. I have bought a couple of other monitor arms since the Ergotron, and the others I purchased were a fraction of this price. They didn't look as good, they were perhaps a little more fiddly to set up, but looking back at it now I really can't justify spending over £125 on this when there are other products available that do basically the same job for a third or even a quarter of that price. If you have a particularly expensive screen and want absolute assurance that you've got the best arm available, and money isn't really an issue, then definitely buy the Ergotron. For everyone else, I'd strongly suggest looking at cheaper alternatives. They might take you an extra 30 minutes to set up, and won't give you that warm fuzzy 'quality' feeling during the hour you can actually see them, but most of them will do a fine job of mounting your monitor and providing the standard adjustments, and you'll save a significant amount of money. Maybe the best use of this Ergotron is as a gift - if I was giving someone an arm for a birthday or Christmas, then the extra feeling of quality would definitely be warranted. For myself though, I'll definitely not be spending so much again.

Looked at the cheaper alternatives first but decided on Ergotron as I've used their stands before. I made the right choice. This is a very well constructed arm. Most of the construction being cast aluminium means it is not overly heavy in itself. The box it arrives in is surprisingly small. All the components are made to a high standard. You get a number of clearly labeled sealed bags containing fittings and allen keys. All you need to complete the assembly is a cross head/phillips/pozidrive/whatever screw driver. You also get a large visual assembly guide. There is a video showing how to assemble the arm properly on the Ergotron website, http://www.ergotron.com/tabid/143/language/en-GB/default.aspx. That said, assembly is straightforward. Study the instructions and take it slowly, step by step. Mount and secure the upright pole first then on a flat surface attach the monitor to the relevant arm. I had to release all the tension on the mounting plate, see instructions, to be able to do so. After that it's simply a matter of slotting the two arms onto their respective joints, then adjusting tensions. Now make sure, before you proceed an further, that your monitor power and video cables are long enough, with about 4-6 inches over for safety, to run through the cable tidies provided. Now the most important part of the assembly, setting the tensions of the various joints. This is vital, if you want the arm to work properly and safely. The swivel joints are tensioned using tiny grub screws which you adjust using the small allen key provided. Tighten them carefully and slowly till the joint just stops moving, then very slowly untightened in small increments till the movement feels smooth but with slight resistance. Do not over tighten these grub screws. If you do and strip the thread you won't be able to tension the joint. Plus the hole will need to be re-threaded and a new grub screw fitted. Which will cost and mean you can't use the arm. The same care is needed adjusting the spring tensions on the monitor mounting plate and arm. The monitor plate I untightened all the way, as the spring is very strong and supports my 24in monitor without any problem or undue movement. Untighten them till they feel too slack them very gradually retighten till you have smooth movement with slight resistance. People have said before about this arm that you get what you pay for. That is a fact, if you want a strong, highly adjustable and, more importantly, safe monitor arm, buy this. My neck pain has now gone, as I can finally get the monitor at a comfortable height. After hours wasted looking at websites that tell you how to adjust monitor/chair height and getting nowhere. There is also now a large area in front of me that has been freed up and I can move the monitor back out of the way. Which means increased work space that wasn't available before.

I work from home and like to have the TV on for some background noise but wanted to get rid of some of the clutter that comes from having multiple screens on my desk and started to investigate wall mounts for a 27" LCD TV and came across the Ergotron. The key point with this mount was the price - it was far higher than anything else I found. Researching the item it became clear that this mount offers you far more than typical TV mounts so I decided to give it a go - a further reason was that I have a desk that can raise and lower so you can work standing up and this mount gave the option to raise or lower a display. The mount is a very substantial piece of kit and you can immediately see where much of the costs come from. The next step is positioning - I found this to be key and spent a fair amount of time to get this right. If you have a willing helper then you can move the mount once you assemble it to get an idea of the range of motion but it takes some doing. I cut out a piece of card the same size of my monitor to give me a idea as to how it would all look. Once you are satisfied then let the drilling begin! With a decent drill it proved no problem to get the holes drilled and the plugs and bolts installed. A set of different screws to cover typical depths for your monitor was provided and my Samsung was affixed to the standard mounting plate without fuss. Once on the wall I didn't need to use the allen key at all to tighten the arms as they held the monitor in place without issue. I have put some photos up to show the range of motion you have including a tilt so when placed up high you can tilt the monitor so that it faces downwards. One tip - to finish things off to hide cables make sure you get decent cable lengths as you need some extra behind the monitor to allow for extension of the arm. I went with a basic long, white, HDMI cable and it has worked well. Same again with the power cable and I was delighted to find you can get longer length figure 8 cables to help with this. I chose this one White 5m Mains Power Cable/Lead by electrosmart® ~ 3 Pin Moulded UK Plug to Right Angled IEC C7 Figure 8 along with some trunking to hide everything - D-Line 1D3015WSA 1 m 30 x15 mm Mini Trunking - White this worked really well hiding the power cable plus the HDMI. In a month or so of use it has been rock solid and I am absolutely delighted with the purchase and feel 5 x stars is entirely justified for this well made monitor wall mount. Highly recommended.

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 🙏

I have had this arm for around 6 months, and as you would expect at this price point, it's a quality item. I reposition it at least twice a day, and it's solid and sturdy. No regrets paying the extra for this item, it's made to last, has great function and looks amazing
