Ergotron LX Dual Direct Monitor Arm VESA Desk Mount for 2 Monitors Up to 25 Inches, 0.9-5 kg Each - Matte Black

This arm is almost exactly what I was looking for.* Very full range of motion for two monitors. I can pull them out, push them back, tilt them forward or sideways, raise them, etc.* I can mount it against a wall, push the monitors back, and only require about two inches of buffer between the desk and the wall. This allows me to use my full desk depth and not require buffer off of the wall.* Sturdy. Tensions are adjustable. No sagging after a week of use.* The rail allows both monitors to be easily aligned, minimizing the hassle of manually aligning individual arms.I mounted two 27" 2k (16:9) monitors and they fit fine. The Ergotron website compatibility checker said they wouldn't fit, but they do and I have about 1/2" buffer left on the rail. Between that and that it's rated for up to 20 lbs per monitor, I would imagine that almost any set of 27" monitors would fit on this. Larger monitors will likely require the next size of of the Ergotron 2 monitor rail mount.The biggest downside is probably the cable management, or lack thereof. The only provided cable management is that the lower half of the arm has a removable plate at the bottom that allows a couple cables to be run through it. I have 2 display cables and 1 power cable per monitor (6 total) and they don't come close to all fitting. I have to do the cable management myself.A more minor downside is that if the monitors are pushed back with the arm angled to the side (ex, there's a wall behind the monitors) the monitor stand won't align with the center of the monitors unless the monitors are very high. The arm is made of two pieces of unequal length (all Erogotron arms are), so angling the arm to the side and having the top piece double back the bottom piece yields a center stand that is 2-3 inches offset from the center of the monitors.As an aside, here's a detailed schematic showing the exact measurements: https://www.ergodirect.com/18667-ergotron-45-489-026-lx-desk-mount-dual-direct-arm-polished-aluminum.html

Over the past few weeks, I've ordered and returned a few monitor arms (desk mounted, desk stands) but none of them worked for me--either because it caused the monitors to protrude too far from the edge of the desk or the arms were too bulky or the monitors simply don't line up.I decided to take one more try at monitor arms and tried the Ergotron LX Desk Dual Direct Arm and it was exactly what I was looking for.Pros:- does not lean, sag (even though I placed the arm to one side rather than in the middle)- easy to set up- minimal look with an all black finish- has an optional extending arm that can be used for wider tables- great adjustable heightsCons:- cable management not the best if not using the optional arm--it just uses zip ties- monitor angle (left and right) is locked in since both monitors are on the same fixed monitor armI've used it for about a few days now and overall, I'm really loving this product!

Great monitor arm, holds my 7kg monitor just fine, I even picked up the extension arm. I bought a second one but had the lag screws snap in the wall, so recommend a larger than suggested pilot hole for hard wood frames

I’ve always heard reviewers rave about ergotron but didn’t think it could be this bad. However, after having it for a while , I’ve realized this item is not only over priced but lacks features.For starters the metal is not sturdy or strong at all. It really has difficulty holding my 16lb monitor and I have to tighten the screws to the max and on top of that it easily got a dent from my screw driver falling off my pocket while assembling.On top of that it doesn’t even have basic features like swivel horizontally and so you can only adjust your monitors angles vertically and if you have different monitors then get ready to have them at a angle you will not like.Basic features like a bar to move the arm without pushing or pulling the monitor is an Extra 80-100 dollars depending on time of sale, competition like VIVO actually provide that arm for FREE.Cable management is literally get your own cable ties and manage it yourself, while competing products actually have a plate to hide cables or go through and here it is non existent.I’m disappointed with ergotron and if for the price I am getting something like this where it lacks basic features and get all those and more at a fraction of the cost then I would go elsewhere.
