Ergotron LX Desk Mount Arm – mounting kit Review
Well built and strong
I bought this to support a heavy 24″ Acer monitor. I have clients that come to my office and I was thinking that it would be nice to easily rotate the screen so that they could also see it. Since then, though, I’ve found that the real benefit of the Ergotron LX is the ability to exactly position my screen where I can see it the best….about a foot above my desk and at the exact focal point of my reading glasses. No more leaning forward and end-of-day neck aches!
The quality of construction is excellent…this thing is almost completely metal. Although it’s at the very edge of the specs, it has no problem supporting a 20lb monitor (and I suspect that the weight limit is more due to the strength of the internal springs than anything else). The arm shipped with two different mounting systems. One, a heavy duty desk-edge clamp, would probably have worked fine, but I opted to use the other one – a 5/16″ bolt passing through a hole drilled in the desktop. Using the bolt allows the screen to be moved to any position without worrying about the clamp coming loose…there’s a lot of rotational force exerted by a heavy monitor hanging out on a long arm.
Long and short of it…the Ergotron LX is terrific. I should have bought one years ago.
Update – November 2009 – I contacted Ergotron to purchase second arm. I wanted to upgrade to a dual-monitor setup, but unfortunately, the arms aren’t available for separate purchase. I appear to be stuck (Not nice, guys!), but, if you think you’ll need one in the future, you should look at the dual-arm versions today…
