$154 for the Silver, 1pack - Amazon Basics Premium Single Monitor Stand - Lift Engine Arm Mount, Aluminum - Silver

Been having these in my cart for quite some time when I was looking for monitor arms and bought the Ergotron HX and LX.

These are very popular and often out of stock. From what I read online they basically are the Ergotron LX but with Amazon brand.

Comes with 1yr warranty with Amazon instead of 10 with Ergotron but only half of the price.

    Seems expensive.

    I paid around $70 for a 2 arm monitor stand from Amazon.

    • krisspy on 22/07/2022 - 10:45

      But was it premium?

      • jv on 22/07/2022 - 10:45

        No, I got the pro-duo

    • davidl820 on 22/07/2022 - 10:47

      It is if you're comparing with the cheap ones.

        the cheap ones.

        I think that was the point of my comment…

    • asa79 on 22/07/2022 - 11:42

      This more a heavy duty for large monitors

      • jv on 22/07/2022 - 12:00

        I have 2 x 27" monitors on mine and they wouldn't budge in an earthquake…

        • asa79 on 22/07/2022 - 12:02

          I have a 34" that I struggle to find any stands that support the weight as it's 11kg

          • jv on 22/07/2022 - 12:16

            @asa79: This won't work for you then.

            It is only recommended for 32" or smaller, which is the same as my monitor arms.

          • BlueMM on 22/07/2022 - 12:36

            @asa79: I got the North Bayou H100 Monitor Stand last year (popular with OzBargainers) for about $55, it's even cheaper at the moment.
            I have a 34" Xiaomi curved and the stand is very solid, so I don't see the point in spending more $.

    What exactly are you getting over something like this for a fraction of the price?

    • tshar104 on 22/07/2022 - 11:06

      Bragging rights and moral high ground that its producing zero emissions while you use it.

    • settings on 22/07/2022 - 11:08

      I have the (identical) Ergotron LX tall pole model. Stacked 2 arms to the one pole, each to one monitor (2 monitor set up). You can't with the model you've linked.

    • Axelstrife on 22/07/2022 - 11:08

      If it's anything like the Ergotron LX which i own then the one you linked which i owned before the LX is much less stable meaning the monitor will bob around with even a slight bump of the desk/table while my LX is solid and stable.

        I've bought 5 of the H80's for work and one of the F160 at home and I've never had any issues with any of them, as for wobbling I mean it's not perfect but it's definitely not terrible but I also don't slam my desk daily

        • eecan on 22/07/2022 - 11:31

          Monitor size/weight probably plays a part in this. What size/weight are your monitors?

      • eecan on 22/07/2022 - 11:31

        What monitor are you using?

      • witheredcouch on 22/07/2022 - 12:05

        My whole office is running 32" 1440p monitors on North Bayou F100's and F195's with no noticeable desk wobble.

      The biggest improvement for me is that my monitor doesn't sag anymore and I can tilt the monitor anytime if I want to.

      With my previous model which is the NB F80 (updated version), I had to tight up the bolt so the monitor stays the angle that I want without sagging however that means you can't tilt it when you need to, the monitor still sagged after short period… and it was so much effort to adjust that again.

      • SnowDragon on 22/07/2022 - 11:41

        I have two F80's holding up my S2721DGF's. Never had any sagging - they've stayed in position for the past 12 months.

        Maybe having heavier 32" would take more of a toll?

        • davidl820 on 22/07/2022 - 11:51

          I am using a 34" UW which is around 6kg, but even that it is still well under what the spec claims.

          Probably something to do with the position of the Visa mount on the back, some could be lower and make it harder to hold up.

          • RaihaX on 22/07/2022 - 13:24

            @davidl820: assuming you have curved monitor - that also plays a role.

            eg. the G9 requires a heavy duty pivot for the HX.

    • jikijiki on 22/07/2022 - 12:45

      As someone who has the one you linked I wished I had bought another one because the cheaper ones require you to fold the arms back onto itself so it stick's out the side/back of your table by around 30cm.

      More expensive ones I've used in the office doesn't have this issue because the arms aren't positioned diagonally from the base and are positioned vertically.

      • SnowDragon on 22/07/2022 - 12:59

        stick's out the side/back of your table by around 30cm.

        Mine are basically flush with the wall - I have them setup sideways kinda like this

  • kungfuman on 22/07/2022 - 11:26

    for 269 bucks for one arm it better be good.

    • settings on 22/07/2022 - 11:27

      It's for 2.

      • kungfuman on 22/07/2022 - 11:28

        Ohh! that different then :D

    • eecan on 22/07/2022 - 11:27

      $269 for two arms.

    • Aildaris on 22/07/2022 - 11:28

      It looks like it's a 2 pack, though ~135ea for a single arm is still relatively pricey

      • cloudie9 on 22/07/2022 - 11:41

        I bought this before, like almost 7 years ago via Amazon US direct, cost me USD 121.23 shipped, 1-pack though. So to get this from within Australia is not bad but you had to get two packs though in this deal.
