Review on Ergotron LX Single Monitor Arm - VESA Wall Mount for Monitors Up to 34 Inches, 7-25 lbs - Polished Aluminum by Isaac Ismail

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Saving space saves my sanity

We have an all-in-one computer (about £22*) that we wanted to install in an old secretary's desk, you know, with the cabinet on top. above and a desktop that folds. However, the closet was too tall to accommodate just one monitor in it. The finishes and light weight of the furniture precluded the use of a folding table mount. So I came up with the idea of removing the back of the cabinet, wall mounting the computer and sliding it out and down as needed. My husband was able to achieve this by placing his hand to the left of center. Now the computer is tucked away in a closet, which makes our house look tidier (I'll enlist any help I can), but it's within easy reach for any use during the day. Rating for this because another review/answer said it could hold up to 25lbs. The Ergotron website says up to 25 pounds, but the instructions say a 25 pound monitor reduces the arm's range of motion because you have to tighten the hydraulic part of the arm. Our monitor isn't that heavy and can move as much as we need, so no complaints about that.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • A little wrinkled
