Amazon Basics Single Monitor Stand - Height Adjustable Arm Mount, Steel, Black

I share a desk with my other half... it's my desk really, but she has a computer tucked underneath that she can use from time to time. I purchased this monitor arm to try and maximise the desk space available by being able to get rid of the monitor stand and also to be able to push the monitor out of the way when not in use, but also be able to pull the monitor out and have it at a suitable viewing angle when actually in use. This monitor arm does this perfectly. The desk I have is pretty sturdy so it has a good surface to clamp to. I'm not sure I'd want to clamp this to something like the IKEA Linnmon desks are they're pretty hollow and not very rigid... but that's more a fault of the desk than the arm. Just something worth mentioning to make sure you're not attaching this to something too weak to hold it. The product itself is very well made. I expected a much weaker, more flimsy product for this price and especially considering it has "Basics" in the brand name... but it's absolutely solid, decently thick steel. There's no way it'll bend or flex easily. Really easy to put together, took only about 10 minutes or so to completely set it up on the desk. Adjustability is great, the arm is a little bit stiff so it may take a bit of time to make it easier to move about, but it's generally pretty good. I'm not entirely sure of the specs of the monitor, but it's a fairly beefy ASUS 27" unit... Absolutely no issues holding this monitor, no adjustments needed to make it support the weight. I was in the market for two monitor stands and decided this one would cut it for that monitor, but for my own Samsung 34" ultrawide, I wasn't convinced it'd be sturdy enough so bought a different arm for that. Admittedly I haven't tested it, but having now physically seen and felt the product, I'd be almost happy to say this would likely have held that ultrawide monitor as well. The cable management is quite good for such a simple thing as well. The pole is basically hollow with a hole at the bottom rear. There is then a plastic cap that keeps the top of the pole neat and tidy once you've run your cables... It's very basic but does such a great job... and the rear exit is a very welcome feature as I've seen others that come from the front and you end up with the cables shoved right in view. The rear helps keep them hidden and tidy, you'd barely even know the cables were there! For such a basic monitor arm, I highly, highly recommend this product.

I recently got the Amazon Basics Single Monitor Stand, and it’s been a game-changer. The build quality is excellent — solid steel that feels very sturdy and stable. The height adjustment is smooth and precise, making it easy to position my monitor exactly where I want it. It also frees up a lot of desk space, which makes my workspace feel much cleaner and more organized. Installation was straightforward, with clear instructions and all the necessary hardware included. Overall, a simple, durable, and highly functional monitor arm that I would recommend to anyone looking to improve their setup.

Fairly straightforward to set up and seems sturdy enough. Bought at a good price - part of Black Friday deals. Overall satisfied that the monitor stand is doing what was needed. I have positioned the stand so that the monitor is on the right of the arm and the weight is possibly is causing a slight tilt (only a 24 inch monitor). Easily corrected with a small prop. However getting the stand in the right position took a while and it was quite tricky getting the arm to move so that the second monitor lined up with the first monitor at the back of the desk..

Great single monitor arm, sturdy, premium and definitely not going anywhere, I feel secure in knowing my monitor is safe on this thing. Easy to assemble. My favourite feature is that you can route cables through a hole in the back of the pole and feed them out through the top of it so your cables are completely hidden.

Sturdy, easy to install, and very smooth to adjust. It holds my monitor securely and frees up a lot of desk space. Definitely worth it and highly recommended.

Very impressed with this Amazon Basics single arm monitor stand, especially for the price. It took around 5 minutes to assemble and mounting the monitor was straightforward. The arm feels sturdy and holds the screen securely without any sagging or tipping. I like how you can rotate the screen and adjust the height very easily. The built-in cable management is also a great feature, with cables running neatly through the middle of the stand and the included clips helping keep everything tidy. Excellent value for money and a great budget-friendly option if you're looking for a reliable monitor arm.

This monitor is fine and all height-wise, but extends way too far outward that it defeats the purpose of helping you save desk space.

I purchased this for my monitor because my stand was getting in the way. The arm is very easy to install (only requires you to twist and tighten). It has great adjustability depending on how you want to display your screen. It can turn and tilt a large amount. The arm itself seems to be very durable and holds the monitor up without issue. It frees up space on the desk since you don't have to deal with a monitor stand getting in your way. My only issue is how annoying it can be to adjust the height of the arm. You have to take the monitor off before you can adjust and there are no markings which means you have to guess. I had to set mine quite high up which caused the pole to lean slightly but it still stayed in place. Pros: - Easy to turn/tilt and has wide range - Simple installation - Durable and strong - Frees up a lot of space Cons: - No markings for adjusting height - The pole leans slightly from the pressure (can be avoided if height is lowered and if placed closer to center)

I was genuinely surprised by how well-built this monitor arm is, especially for the price. It feels sturdy and holds my monitor securely without any issues. One thing I really liked is that it offers two mounting options. You can either use the included desk clamp, or if you prefer a cleaner, more permanent setup, you can drill a hole in your desk and mount it through the desktop. Having both options makes it much more versatile and means it should work with almost any desk setup. Overall, it’s excellent value for money and I’d definitely recommend it if you’re looking for an affordable, solid monitor arm.

C’est juste excellent, prix très attractif, qualité très solide, montage même un enfant de 10 ans le fait sans aucune difficulté, la tenue sur la table et de l’écran est top, il ya même des trous pour le câblage. C’est un 11/10

Works as intended. Was easy to setup

I was in the market for an arm for my 24” second monitor and this one came up. It’s pretty easy to assemble, and its super sturdy. Also very adjustable, although I wish it was ever so slightly higher, that is just a personal preference based on my main monitor. However, it’s still really great for how affordable it is. At the highest setting it does ever so slightly bend (shown in one of the photos) although it doesn’t seem to effect the structural integrity at all. It’s nice that you can adjust the tilt tension as well so if you have a heavier monitor, it won’t tilt under it’s own weight. Overall, looks great, has cable management features (don’t mind the one cable, it’s my hdmi and is not long enough to reach the back of the monitor if I feed it through the stand) and it works well. I give it 5 stars just because you can’t beat it at this price point.

Exceptional value for the money. Rock solid support, great range of motion. The monitor mount’s vertical support pole is a sturdy 1.9” in diameter (others are mostly only 1.37” in diameter) and designed to allow monitor and power cables to be threaded discreetly down through the pole; exiting out the back just above the surface level of your desk. The extra-wide diameter permits the threading of full-size power plugs, HDMI, and DisplayPort cables through the support pole. A two-part plastic plug can be placed into the top of the pole after running your cables for a nice and tidy look. Unfortunately, the vertical pole only seems to be available in a 16” height; and if your are unlucky enough to have a stupidly designed monitor like my 28” 4K Samsung U28E590D, with the VESA attachment point at the extreme top edge of the monitor, this will likely be too short to earn you any extra room on the surface of your desk. In fact, it hangs the monitor several inches lower than the monitor’s own included stand. * I tried mounting my monitor upside down, as flipping the display orientation in Windows and MacOS is simple as can be, but my Samsung Monitor just wouldn’t submit. I don’t know if it is a polarization issue or a LCD under stress issue; but the flipped monitor winds up entirely washed out (dark, reflective, and deeply purple tinted) on the button half when viewed directly as one normally would. Mounted upside down, one can only see the full screen clearly by leaning the monitor 45° or more backward, which obviously is not practical at all. Other monitors might better handle being mounted upside down, and one should attempt this if they have a monitor with a similarly off-center VESA point. I’m disappointed in mine, as mounted upside down I only needed 12-13” of the 16” pole to have 6-7” of clearance under my monitor.
