    Most useful for me with my somewhat impaired vision. I can move the screen in close when I need to, e.g. photos; I can move the screen out when I don't need the details and am simply reading text, e.g. email. The best part is that it seems stable and not prone to drifting downward (when properly adjusted).

    The only thing in installation that was a little annoying is that two of the adjusting screws were so tight that I abandoned using the enclosed wrench for fear of breaking it (and hurting myself)or damaging the screws. I then used my cordless drill with the appropriately-sized metric bit to loosen said screws by incrementally increasing the torque setting on the drill until the screws came loose. Maybe this should have been done in the Staples store where I bought the arm.

    I bought this stand to get my monitor of my desk AND give me some flexibility in moving the monitor around throughout the day. Its great for lifting the monitor off the desk; not so great for moving the monitor around (a Samsung SyncMaster 2343bwx @ ~16lbs). To keep the monitor from sagging, I had to tighten the screws pretty snug, which made it difficult to easily/smoothly move the monitor. Also, you need to "pinch" the plastic tabs where the two arms meet to move the monitor up/down.

    I wound up getting an Ergotron LX arm, which was twice as expensive, but lets me move the monitor around my desk MUCH more easily.

    I'd recommend the 3M arm IF you just want to get your monitor off your desk but don't need to move it around. It's easy to set up the arm and easy to position the monitor. Tighten the screws and you're set. If you need to move your monitor, try an Ergotron.

      Comments about 3M™ LCD Monitor Arm, Desk Mounted:

      I bought this while back and it serves it's purpose to get my monitor off the desk. Although maneuvering this arm is difficult and requires ratcheting and pushing a button on the main hinge, with a lot of force. Basically, you really have to plan it out to get just the right length, height etc. and you have to tighten it quite a bit to get it to stay... so once it's in position, don't mess with it.
      Recently I put all my monitors on arms and went with ergotron for the other mounts. Amazing difference. The ergotron mounts are actually customizable, much higher quality and cheaper. In hindsight, this 3m monitor mount was a complete waste of money, now that I know what I was missing.

        I like the mounting arm overall and would have purchased a second if it were in stock (had to relocate 2nd computer since then so was a good thing at the time). Supports large screen monitors and is very adjustable. Solid and looks good. Very functional.

            Unfortunately there are no holes to screw through to attach this to your desk, however it does have a grommet mount that you would be able to clamp to your desk top.

          Does this swivel 180 degrees? Does it also tilt forward & backward 180 degrees? Is there a cable management system? Can you confirm that the product moves up and down as well as forward and backward. Thank you.

            A:

            This allows the monitor to physically rotate 180 degrees for portrait or landscape viewing. Additionally, it is height-adjustable, and should serve any directional need you may have. There is not a cable management system, however.

          How do I attach the 3M monitor arm to the back of the monitor? There are no holes and I don't want to damage the monitor
          Asked on 12/5/2009 by Anonymous

          1 answer

          • A:

            Your LCD monitor must have a "VESA-compliant" mount on the back in order to attach it to most monitor arms. Not all monitors are so equipped, although most modern monitors have a 75mm or a 100mm VESA mount. Don't try to improvise by drilling holes in the back of a non-VESA monitor; there will be no internal structure to support the monitor's weight and you'll most likely end up with scrap...

            You can sometimes find monitor arm vendors who will supply you with a non-VESA mounting option. Look at Flexor or Chief or Peerless models. Maybe even Ergotron.
