Review on πŸ–₯️ Ergotech Single Freedom Arm: Stylish Silver Aluminum Articulating Arm for Monitors up to 27", VESA Compatible, 8.4-17.8 lbs. Weight Capacity by Viswanath Badasz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Solid monitor arm, buy recommendation.

Excellent manipulator, solid construction, smooth operation. It stays where you put it. Use this mount on a 34" ultra wide monitor that weighs 6.35 kg (14 lbs) for almost 6 months with no problems. The tension is adjustable, so just adjust it for the weight of your monitor. the weight. Based on the specs, it's not compatible with a 34-inch monitor, but if the weight is within specs, you can use it. Use it in portrait mode. If it's curved, why would you use it in portrait mode? You may be able to rotate it if you install a locking ring on top of the support post. I set it low due to the height of the monitor. Position the bottom of the monitor about 1/2 inch from the table. That way I don't have to lift my head too high or at all to see the top of the screen. This is done to relieve the neck. If your desk isn't against a wall like mine, you can slide the 34-inch monitor out of the desk, set it in portrait mode, and then fold it back. This is the corner for the table to hold on to. The smaller 30-inch monitor can be rotated to portrait while remaining above the desk. A 32" will probably fit, but you'll need to position the retaining ring higher. The flaw I see in the design is the clamp. It's a C-clamp with rubber feet to secure and protect the table and it does work perfect.If your table has a ledge, the "C" portion of the clamp may not be deep enough to work around it depending on the thickness.That was my problem, I have an old Sauder table that you had to build. . Removed the screws for the bar and as a bonus the tree behind it was ready. Now no problems with the C clamp. Installation Tip 1) Fix the base 15" (38cm) from the center. 2) Install the bottom of the retaining ring 2.5" (6.35 cm) from the bottom of the stand. 3) Do not damage the rack, attach the retaining ring very lightly. 4) A retaining ring that slides over the retaining ring secures the arm to the bar and prevents it from nac h slips down.
