If anyone has successfully used a clamp-on monitor arm with their Varidesk, let me know what brand you recommend. Looking at an EasyMountLCD 002-0013.

I have 2 clamps for different screens on my varidesk single. They are duronic clamps. There is plenty of room at the back of the desk to put them on. I have two 20" screens and the clamps are on the far right/left with about an inch of manoeuvrability. If you have bigger screens and want to use two clamps you'd need to get the pro/pro plus.

I havent used a clamp monitor stand, but i am using other clamp products. the top desk plate is strong enough to withstand the clamps i am using with ease. HOWEVER, one thing i strongly recommend is that you get two metal plates and place them between the top clamp and the top of the desk, and another plate between the bottom dual clamps and the bottom of the desk. Reason 1: the bottom dual claps are little circles that will apply an incredible amount of pressure to just those two spots. if you place a metal plate between the circles and the bottom of the desk, you will be able to clamp tighter without beginning to crack the wood of the desk. Reason 2: a metal plate will dispurse the force of the clamps to a wider area across the desk, therefore you leave less of a mark on the desk, possibly even no mark. Reason 3: the monitors will be more stable. less shaking, wobbling, or any other movement. again, a tighter clamp means a tighter grip, which will better prevent movement. with only the two little circle clamps sustaining the weight of the monitor and laptop, you are bound to get some motion, but using the metal plates will minimize such movement. I reccommend using a steel plate (or stronger) at least 2.0 mm in thickness. home depot sells a wide variety of thicknesses and sizes. chances are the plates will be silver in color, and since the desk is black, you may wnat to paint the plates before using them. engine paint (spray paint can) is always a good option, it is durable, easy to apply, and looks professional when dry. good luck!

I have two 27" AOC monitors connected to my stand. The stand is very sturdy and works well for me.Just make sure your monitor has the correct hole setup for the mount so you can secure it onto the mount. Some monitors do not line up correctly.

Just wondering what you ended up doing, did you do a pro plus or in the end get an Ergotron arm etc to raise the monitor up ?

The top resolution is dependent on the monitor you have, not the arm. The arm's limitations are on weight and size, not resolution.

I use mine on the computer desk made of tempered glass. That being said I had a piece of plywood cut and placed where the clamp would go and it works great. I know that's not exactly what you asked but it's how I've circumvented that problem. By the way I have a heavy 27 inch touch screen monitor and this device holds it like a champ with no drilling at all.

I have 6 Dell Ultrasharp U2414H (widescreen) monitors (53.92 x 4.57 x 32.10) on this and it works great. The product is heavy (which is good), though in a perfect work you would want something to clamp the stand to the table (not included). I say this because if your desktop/table in any way rattles or moves even slightly when you type, the monitor stand will move with it. It has not been an issue for me though my desktop does move a little when I type.

As long add you're using matched monitors it shouldn't be an issue. The mounts all rotate.

I do not have an ergotron monitor myself but the desk is fairly large and the back should have plenty of space to set one up. I have two 27" monitors next to one another without taking too much space. I don't think mounting the arms would be a problem.

Hello Michael,I think one need to play with the different viewing angles and see what works best. Sometimes I switch angles because of wanting to change my sitting position, other times, it depends on what application I'm actually using wit hthe product. As was mentioned already, a monitor mountign arm works wonders in finding that perfect viewing angle.- C.

You should have a 100x100 VESA mount on your monitor according to a review I found for it. check to make sure there is four screw holes on the back, probably behind the hinge where the arm attaches to the monitor. If it does have them, this will definitely work with it.

I use this Monitor Arm on a 24 inch monitor. It works great. It takes a bit of time to get all the screws dialed in together to get your settings and angles correct. Overall very happy with the product.

I can't say for sure, but I'd try it. You can always return it, so keep the box in case it doesn't work. I recommend trying to find a clamping point on your desk that will be somewhat close to where your monitor will actually be suspended because the shorter the arm's radius from clamp to monitor, the less leverage forces the clamp will exert on your desk.

The Ergotron LX Wall Mount LCD Arm will support and ultra-wide 29" monitor; however, keep in mind that it's the SURFACE WALL that the arm mount will be attached to that really matters - if its sheet rock that you will be attaching the wall mount LCD arm, then I suggest that you reinforce the holes that you will be drilling into the wall with plastic anchors to assist in a secure 'fit of the screws' into the wall. I have used this particular brand and model with heavier flat panel monitors with no problems at all. Also, if you really want to increase the stability of the wall mount arm, I suggest you order the wall mount plate to secure the base on.

I've got a preview monitor that I use this with a handheld rig. The locking of all points in tighten down by the center handle.First thing is to tighten down the contenting point at either end and then lock down the system with the center handle. For the price I'm stoked with this unit, but if you want to spend some cash buy a bogen magic arm for $130.00 hope this helps. Will

I was able to mount 3 27" monitors in Landscape (measure your monitor width, include the bezel). With 3 27"s, each monitor measured 25.55" across, after it was assembled I had maybe 2cm of space on either arm before the clamp would hang off the edge. If this sounds like your setup, you may want to buy an additional mount (Flush Mount). Please see my review.

Thats about how much is actually clamped onto my desk too, just make sure you use tools to tighten the clamp, I should also note, I modified the arms on mine to go 3 wide, on a 6x6 monitor system
