NB North Bayou Monitor Arm Desk Mount Ultra Wide Full Motion Swivel Long Arm with Gas Spring for 22''-35''Monitors from 6.6 to 26.4lbs Height Adjustable Monitor Mount Stand G70

I waited months to install my monitor arm. I'd been hung up on having to drill a hole in my desk because my desk edges would not work, so I finally got around to it, hole and all.The stand is extremely sturdy yet elegant. I have a 27" LG 4K monitor that just gave up a lot of desk space.2 issues though. 1) The instructions are quite good (better than many) but not entirely complete so I had to experiment with how to adjust the arm once fully assembled (there are these +/- symbols with no obvious way or tool to make these adjustments; there are no hints or any other text than what labels the components. As a result of my being unable to fully adjust things, my monitor won't swivel up as much as it could but it doesn't affect me because I can simply raise the monitor.2) The opening in the base of the stand is not sized properly for the USB cable's female plug to be inserted properly. The provided plate does secure the plug well with 2 screws, but it just is a few mm too small for my USB 3.0 (Amazon Basics) plug to fit flush. They bent the metal of the opening: they should have removed the metal of the opening. When I assembled the unit, I kept a male plugged in the female in the stand the whole time so the female plug wouldn't shift around during tightening. It ended just fine.Overall: the entire process took me about 3 hours, which included deciding on placement, drilling, stringing cords, tidying up. I thought the USB plug in the base was a gimmick but it allows me to have my USB farm of devices away from my laptop. If you don't have the "edge of desk too thick" problem and don't use the USB cable, you could get the whole thing installed in 30-45 minutes.Overall, 5 stars!

I bought this monitor arm way back in ye olden days of 2018, and while it was a bear to set it up the first time (this is the result of physics, not of the product itself) ever since then I haven't had to think about it, and "I haven't had to think about it" is pretty high praise when it comes to an office product. I mean if you're sitting around thinking about your office chair all day then it's not a very good office chair, at least not for that office, it isn't.The unit was as easy to install on my table, and the hardware installation was as easy as can be expected when one is trying to wrangle a 15lb, 27" gaming monitor into place. Once I'd adjusted the tension on the arm to my liking it was super easy and stable to move, and man does this have great range of motion! I'd strongly recommend this if your office desk doubles as a work or hobby space, because this arm lets me move my monitor well out of my way and opens my desk up, while leaving my monitor easy to see.Some heads up's I wish I'd had:* You'll want to use this arm installed somewhere that there's plenty of clearance behind your desk or table, the, er, elbow(?) protrudes significantly behind where my desk ends.* Double, then triple check your cables. I got my monitor's power cable pinched, and put too much tension on the DPP cable because I wasn't paying close enough attention. (Luckily Nixeus has good customer service!)* In fact, getting a longer power and video cable might be a wise investment, since you're adding a couple of feet onto the monitor's distance from its outlets and inputs.I don't have a lot that I can compare this monitor arm to, in fact I don't have anything I can compare it to, because it's my first, and it looks like it's going to last me quite a while. It works well, it installs easily, the price is fantastic.... I don't know what else to tell you, if I needed another monitor arm I'd get the same thing again.Easy recommendation for me, great product.

Bought this for a 34” ultrawide. It’s been through 2 months of use. Assembly was a little unclear, as others have noted, but once it was together, it’s pretty easy to use.A few observations:- the plastic for the cable routing in the arms feels bendy and cheap. Don’t know how many removals the screw holes would hold up to. Had to jam my fingers in to keep it from flexing while I put in the screws.- vertical tilt is the worst adjustment, and tends to tilt the top of the monitor further forward, which is a pain.- height has been holding solid. My monitor weight is 8kg, and the monitor arms stays at the height where I positioned it.- I’m using the clamp, and it’s been solid since installation. Can’t speak to the grommet assembly, since I didn’t try it.Overall, good performance for the money.
