Any manufacturer you can recommend as a competitor to Ergotron? I was looking at their stands because my monitor is on the heavier side (~26 lbs / 11kg) and expensive so I want an adjustable arm stand that I can trust to hold it securely.
A lot of cheaper stands say they only hold up to about 20 lbs.
- WaltPurvis 7y agoI've never looked for that because I don't have any monitors that weigh anywhere close to that. (The heaviest monitors I have are 27" 4K monitors weighing 12 lbs each.) The brands I bought are WALI and Vivo, and they're both excellent, but I don't know if they have any stands that will support 26 lbs.
- nkrisc 7y agoThanks, I'll look more into those brands. If anyone is in a similar position, I've got a 34" ultrawide, so it's a bit heavy. I was looking at the Ergotron HX Monitor Arm as it can hold 20 to 42 lbs, but it's about $280. The best I could find on Vivo (STAND-V101H) has a maximum capacity of 26 lbs, so it might just work out. Of course my monitor comes with what is actually a very nice stand, but it just takes up so much room.
- GrumpyYoungMan 7y agoI'd suggests the ones from Ergomart, e.g. https://www.ergomart.com/monitor-mounts/monitor-arms/saa2415-heavy-duty-monitor-arm https://www.ergomart.com/monitor-mounts/monitor-arms/saa2415.... They have options on some models that support up to 55 lbs as well as other models with extended reach.
