They can even help improve the ergonomics and usability of your workspace. If you’ve ever wanted to free yourself from the chains of freestanding monitors, then keep reading. We’ll help you find the best monitor arm for your needs. Well, the name says it all. It’s a simple arm and doesn’t have frills like a dual-tone exterior or anything along those lines. Instead, it bears a simple look. But let that not deter you, for this arm has plenty of features hidden up its sleeve. For one, it’s equipped with a gas-spring arm, which makes moving the monitor easy. Secondly, it’s pretty flexible and offers a range of motions. You can adjust the height up to 22 inches. The only limitation of this mount is that it doesn’t have a VESA mounting plate. Instead, it has VESA extensions to hold the screws when the screen is fitted in. 5. Monoprice Full Motion Single Monitor Mount As far as handling the weight of the monitors I have had no trouble thus far. I am still making tension adjustments to optimize the setup though. Yesterday, as an example, I noticed one of the monitors was sinking slightly when elevated to its highest point. I tightened the adjustment and it's been fine since. While it is quite easy to adjust the hex-screws that control tension, it is a bit more difficult to discern the impact of those adjustments. Sometimes I think I've made a big adjustment by rotating the hex-screw several times but can't really tell if I've made any difference. Also, the tension seems to vary across different points through the range of movement. Maybe this is normal for these types of arms? I'm satisfied thus far, but there is certainly room for improvement.

Monitor arms are a great way to reduce the amount of desk space that your computer setup occupies. They also make your monitor look amazing, giving it a floating aesthetic that looks incredible if you’re creating a more minimal, clean-looking setup.

Monitor arms can adjust up and down easily, which many monitor stands cannot. Monitor arms can also adjust toward and away from you. It’s pretty flexible and lets you tilt, rotate, and swivel. For instance, the mid-section can rotate 360 degrees, and the base can rotate 180 degrees. So, you can pull the monitor down or move it a little sideways. At the same time, if you want the arms to be a little stiff, you need to tighten the screws at the right place, and that’s about it. There are a variety of things that could lead people to use a monitor arm. For some, the ergonomics (and convenience) of being able to move your monitor exactly where you want, well, it’s something that can be hard to give up. For others, the desk space being saved by taking the monitor off the desk is invaluable. Many users would be pleased with the unassuming looks of the VIVO monitor arm.
