ErgotronMX Desk Mount with LCD Arm

This mount is absolutely fantastic.I have tried multiple mounts to hold this monitor. It is very heavy and often sags. This arm is PERFECT. It is everything I was looking for in a monitor arm.It can be seen as pricey, but holding up a £1000 screen, it's worth it.The materials feel incredibly sturdy and well made. You can adjust how easily you can swivel the monitor arm.It looks great on the desk.Very versatile positioning, also keeps the monitor firmly in position.Easy to install.

If only everything was as well made as this! I bought two... for a 27" iMac, and a 24" NTC monitor.This is robust quality design. You get what you pay for, and these mounts do what they are meant to at a decent price - elegantly and effortlessly.They give the reassuring feeling that your equipment is in safe hands... that these products are actually built to last.In all it takes maybe 20 minutes to assemble these and mount your computer / monitor ...including the few minutes to adjust the tension correctly as described in the brief install guides.Of course with the heaviest items you should expect some reasonable resistance in the lowest weight-bearing joint of the desk mount when or if you have to swivel your gear through 180 degrees, which is what I think the reviewer below is referring to.But at the 13.5kg max weight for this product, extended upon a single point of attachment to the desk, the law of gravity makes itself known! So you just need to hold the Ergotrons second level section when moving it as well as the computer/monitor to facilitate easy manipulation.A 27" iMac weighs 13.5kg ... and it floats on these things: up, tilting downwards (to a degree), in landscape or portrait orientation, or even facing the ceiling. But remember - as advertised - the maximum height adjustment up or down is 5"There's a serious guarantee on them, and the UK distributor shipped them to me next day as a courtesy and at no cost.What's not to like?

Looks great and works very well. Very versatile and easy to use.However I think I should have gone for the model with 3 joints as the up and down movement is quite limited, if you push it all the way away from youI expected to need my screen quite far forward to accommodate the arm but was pleasantly surprised.cable management is good but a bit fidly, but once you have it set up it works very well.

As soon as I opened the box I was impressed by the quality of this product it comes neatly packaged with all the parts in its own section of the packaging. It comes with a hex tool, but you will need a crosshead screwdriver of your own. It also has a nice clear instruction booklet which I found very easy to follow. I managed to put this together and mount my 24" (on my own) in about 30mins. I was expecting it to be fiddly and take a long time as I work with several makes of arms at work and it "always" takes two of us to mount a monitor, but this was a breeze to setup.Easy to put together CHECKManages the cables nicely CHECKSwivels nicely CHECKLooks stylish CHECKReasonable Price (for what you get) CHECKThis arms max capacity is 30" or 13.6Kg, my 24" monitor is already 10Kg so its worth checking the weight of your intended screen rather than its size.If your intended monitor weighs less than 9.1Kg you can save some money by going for the cheaper LX model.I got my MX arm for £70 inc vat, although the price has since risen I think it is still worth it. This is pure quality! Sure you pay three or four times the price of a cheap arm, but you do actually get three of four times the build quality.If you are currently trying to choose the right arm for your monitor, don't be tempted by arms that have no joint in the main span. You will find it very difficult to position the arm just how you want it on your desk unless you shell out for a better quality arm with a second joint (splitting the arm in two) such as the Ergotron range.I recommend that interested buyers take a look at the animation of the arms motion on the Ergoton website to see why this arm is so great.5 stars

This is the second product i have purchased made by Ergotron and after checking the other reviews i decided on this MX desk mount for a Lenovo ThinkCentre all-in-one M93z, I installed this by drilling through my desk to fit the mount as this was the neatest option for me, however any other fitting option was catered for in the supplied fittings, a few turns of the adjustment screw and the whole unit just glides easily and stays where it is positioned.I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a well made desk mount with multiple mounting options.

Its rare that I review anything, unless it really impresses me. This desk mount does. The unit is well designed, made from good quality materials, looks good and performs brilliantly. I've hung an all in one HP computer & monitor on the end of the arm.The monitor weighs just over 10kg and the arm supports it with ease. Straight from the box without any adjustment it settled at any position it was placed in with no drop or tilt. As noted by a reviewer of the LX version their is no concealed cable management which to some may be a demerit, but I've placed all the cables in a cable sock (the type used on AV installations) and attached it with two strips of Velcro wrapped around the top of the arm and it works perfectly for me at least. I feel its fully deserving of 5 Stars as I cant really fault it.

What a beast! This thing is a serious piece of metal and worth every penny.I have been struggling to find a 'budget' monitor arm that would actually hold an old 30" TFT based Dell ultrasharp monitor and after wasting money here and there, I eventually gave in and when for Ergotron. I'm so glad a did, this thing is totally manoeuvrable and feels really safe and sturdy.There are a variety of mounting options available in the box, mine came with both a clamp and a blot through option. I'm currently using the clamp which was a bit of a fiddle, but I think all monitor arms are!
