Ergotron MXV Desk Monitor Arm - Black - Monitor Stand - Desk Mount - Tilt

This is a strange review to write since I'm quite disappointed that the product information photo showing the points of adjustment is not accurate BUT if I review the arm based on the actual product itself, not my disappointment about that discrepancy, it's a really solid and nice monitor arm.I chose this monitor arm (and paid significantly more than other similar quality and featured products) because it was the only one I could find where the product detail showed a joint with 180 degrees of up/down adjustment just above where the stand attaches to the desk. I looked hard for an arm with a joint there since I'd like to be able to move my monitor as far out of the way and drop it down so it doesn't block my view across my desk when I'm not using it (that was my primary shopping criteria). The pictures of the product didn't LOOK like there was for sure a joint there, but I purchased based on the detail adjustment drawing attached.The arm does NOT have a joint there, where I need one. I'm disappointed to have spent a premium for an arm that doesn't have the feature that I looked super hard to find, since I would have opted for a less expensive arm by this manufacturer if I knew that joint wasn't present.That said: this is a really, really nice monitor arm. It was easy to install (I ordered the grommet mount option thinking that would be more stable than the tabletop mount, but the tabletop mount is actually super stable so I don't plan to use the grommet mount. The arm is really easy to adjust for use, and it's way more stable than I expected a monitor arm to be for my standing desk. It doesn't budget with typing or other normal desktop usage, which I was really nervous about with transitioning to an arm instead of a tabletop stand monitor.The 360 degree swivel at the base lets me move my monitor off to the side when not in use, which isn't my ideal use case but given how stable and smooth the arm's movement is, I might decide to keep it despite it not having my ideal adjustability since I've heard so many unhappy reports about movement / wobble with other monitor arms.

サブモニター用に購入しかなり満足しています。材質もしっかりしているので、耐久性も期待できそうです。メインモニター用にもう1本買おうか検討しています。ただしモニターと合わせると少し重いので、1人で設置作業するなら気をつけた方がいいです。

Tried cheaper arms, they were loose, wobbly, sagged etc. This thing is all metal, solid and slim. Does the job pefectly.

I used this to hold my Apple Studio Display and it works great. The arm will need a bit of tensioning to hold the weight of the monitor but once set it is stable and rock solid. This is the nicest monitor arm I have purchased/ used and it stands up to the hype. I have had a few other monitor arms that are okay but nothing like this, sleek and simple. The thumb screws for the VESA mount are brilliant, I don't know why more companies don't do that. Cable management works great, too.

The arm goes a little bit left (or right) and then back more so, meaning that the base has to be off-center from the middle of your monitor. It kind of makes the desk look ugly. I ultimately returned instead because it was creating too much shadow from the RGB lighting on the back of my monitor.
