Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Ergotron Neo-Flex 33-329-085 Medium Black LCD Monitor Display Stand with Lift Function by Lisa Barber

A weak monitor stand puts your monitor at risk

I bought one of these stands to position my monitor in any position I wanted (eg horizontal, vertical etc.). The stand worked flawlessly for the first 12 months. And then one day, without warning, the monitor on my desk collapsed. Something inside is clearly broken. At first I thought something had unscrewed all the way out as the appearance of the stand suggested the entire stand was metal internally. The stand was out of warranty so I decided to open it up and see if I could fix it. That's where I found the surprise. Despite the stand's weight and solid appearance, the stand suspends the monitor with a thin nylon rope tied into a ring. As soon as the string breaks with normal use (I used it carefully for a year), the monitor falls on the table. The look of the stand is deceptive because it looks so robust. I strongly recommend staying away from this booth. Check out some of the 3M swing arm stands I currently own.

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • No paint required
