Monoprice Single Monitor Adjustable Gas Spring Desk Mount - Black, Supports Up to 34 inch Monitors, 19.8 LBS Display Weight, Smooth Full-Motion Black - Workstream Collection

I had previously bought a fully Jarvis on Amazon during the pandemic WFH time. It worked well. Then the company behind Fully was bought by Herman Miller, so it stopped selling on Amazon. Eventually I decided to also get rid the stand of the other monitor on the same desk. I don't want one with a different look since aesthetics matters to me. After scrolling on Amazon for a while, I ran into this one unexpectedly - the not so high definition seller photos look so similar to the Jarvis arm, and I ordered it to try my luck. The bet went off - it came very well packaged, three boxes within boxes, everything is in great condition and high quality. Long story short, turns out it is exactly a fully Jarvis in every detail. Wish it could also come in white.

This monitor is amazing for the price.When I compare them side by side, this seems exactly like the Fully Jarvis that I already have. The only difference is the paint. This one has a power coat, while the Fully has glossy paint. Everything else seems to be the same.Clearly, they use the same OEM manufacturer.

Received this today. I'm using if for my Acer X34, even though the display is outside the advertised size. I had read that someone else had success with the same monitor so wanted to try. And I didn't want to pay a ton of money for it. At $57 this was less than half the price of some other arms.So far (it's only been a few hours) it is doing just what I need it to do - free up some desk space. I don't anticipate moving the monitor much, but this mount would allow me to do that if I wanted to (I like having options, even if I don't see a need for them immediately). Replaced the standard desk mount that came with the monitor and got at least an additional 6" of depth on my desk.Package arrived quickly. It was well packed. Went together easily (I'm using clamp mode, not drilled mode). Three minor issues -1) I had a hard time fitting the monitor onto the mount due to the monitor's design (the plastic housing on the back of the monitor sticks out quite a bit beyond the vesa mount). Had to attach vesa plate to arm, then screw vesa plate to monitor because I couldn't do it the right way (attach plate to monitor, then put monitor + plate onto arm). Really not an issue with the monitor - the fault belongs with Acer's monitor design.2) Attaching vesa plate to monitor was easy. When I had to do the other way around (see 1) above) I had a hard time getting the four screws to catch in the monitor. I think the monitor is slightly curved in the back, while the plate is not. Not really a problem with the arm, but it was a tiny bit difficult (especially while trying to hold up a 16 pound monitor while screwing the plate in).3) I had to REALLY crank down on the gas shock to get the monitor to sit correctly. I'm glad the socket is really deep and the included wrech sits in it well, because I was concerned that I might break the monitor if the wrench slipped at all. The arm is holding the monitor properly, but it too some elbow greast to crank it up properly. This I suspect is due to the monitor's weight, not any fault with the arm. As I said, it is working fine now.Items 1) and 2) above are not really a problem with the arm, more a problem with the monitor. But thought I'd mention them. Item 3) above is also not really a problem, but just be ready to really crank down on the mount adjustments if you have a heavy monitor.

I read a lot of the reviews and was really worried about the ability for the monitor arm and pitch to stay put -- it worked fine. I have a antique editor's desk on the smaller side with one of those standing desk liftable surface things on top. I connected this to the standing desk surface and it is fully supported. I also have a really really small area to work with in my "office"/closet area and I was able to maneuver it into wasted corner space to the right off my desk. I work with a lot of paper files so it was such a relief to have that desk space back!Also, I was able to do everything with the hex keys provided, a pair of pliers for tightening those up, and a drill for a few screws (bc so much faster and easier on the wrists). I cannot emphasize how out of shape and not strong I am from not working out all COVID -- I regularly ask my husband to open jars and things. Yet, I was able to tighten everything up pretty easily. Also the actual mounting of the monitor to the arm is much easier than anticipated. You just screw in their VESA backing to the monitor which you would have laid down flat, then it can be lifted and slid/locked into place. Not hard at all.I attached a 27 in monitor to it as well. I remember i my monitor is not the max weight allowed by the arm, but it was in the higher weight range.

Decided to take the plunge on this vs paying nearly double the price for the standard Amazon Basics Arm. I had already read the reviews stating that it can hold up 34" Ultrawide monitors like my own, albeit with some forceful tightening. However, I was not expecting it to be so difficult! The one bolt you have to tighten to keep the monitor perpendicular to the desk had to be tightened beyond what I thought was possible. Just stating this as a warning to other prospective buyers, this will require some serious elbow grease! I'm a big guy (6'4 240) and in shape, but it was so hard I was initially thinking of just taking it apart to send back. Well about an hour later, and a whole lot of energy expended, I got it just tight enough to keep it at that 90 degree angle to my desk. 4 months later and it hasn't sagged a bit from where it was set.Looking back, I'd say it comes down to how much you value your own work. For me, it was worth saving nearly $50 to have to do this work. However, if you are either a smaller/weaker individual or have the spare cash, I think it would be worth it to get the Amazon Basics mount, as it doesn't seem to have this problem.If you have a more "normal" size/weight monitor, this shouldn't be a problem, and I'd whole-heartedly recommend it over the $50 premium for an Amazon Basics mount.
