BONTEC Monitor Arm with Laptop Tray, Laptop Desk Mount for 13-27 Inch Screen and 17 Inch, Height Adjustable Full Motion VESA Mount, Tilt Swivel 360° Rotation, Cable Management Included

I bought this monitor/laptop double-arm set to use with a Benq 32" 4k monitor and as a tray for desktop paraphernalia. Assembly was pretty straightforward - the necessary allen keys were provided and besides you just need a screwdriver. Most, if not all, of the components have a sleek matte black finish and it looks pretty good in general. Perhaps a bit industrial-looking, but personally I like it. The pole is about 43cm tall and clamps securely to my desk. It comes with a little cable/allen key holder which is pretty handy. The arms are about 35-40cm long depending on the angle of the joints and the VESA mounts have a slide-on quick-fit mechanism with a locking nut to secure them. These are extremely useful when mounting cumbersome, large monitors as they allow you to secure the arm before mounting the monitor and any subsequent adjustments can also be performed without having to bear the weight of the monitor the entire time. The monitor arm does a pretty good job of holding up my 8.4 Kg Benq monitor. There's a tiny bit of sag along the length of the arm, but nothing alarming. The monitor initially kept tilting forward beyond the vertical plane, but a slight tightening of the relevant bolt soon had it staying perfectly vertical. You can also swivel the arm attachment at the pole so that the pivot joint is behind the pole to provide some additional space between yourself and the monitor. The laptop tray is about 35cm wide by 30cm long, nicely built and well ventilated should you choose to use it with a laptop. I just put a mobile phone, earphones and guitar picks on mine but if the arm can support my monitor then most laptops should be no problem at all. Overall I'm pretty pleased with this purchase. It's not a very adjustable arm if you intend to frequently move things around, but if you just want monitor/laptop arms that you intend to keep fairly static then these should do a pretty solid job at a fair price.

Really well made and from quality materials, as the weight suggests. Fairly straight forward to assemble with clear instructions. Used the supplied clamp to fix to desk initially which is really strong and provided a very sturdy fixing. Recently swapped to a desk where the rear is obstructed by a cable tray so had to mount using the 'bolt and hole' method - bolt etc supplied. This involved drilling a hole in the desk. Worth noting that some desks come with pre-drilled hole(s) for feeding through cables, which can be used instead to avoid any drilling. The 'bolt & hole' method has also provided a really strong fixing. Have used for holding laptop & monitor and for holding two LCD screens. Works really well for both, with ample adjustment. Some cable tidies supplied along with handy up-right clip which doubles as holder for the supplied Allen keys so that they are always to hand for any adjustments. Nice touch! Overall really pleased with this. Well worth the money

I chose this monitor arm primarily to consolidate a laptop and external display into a single, ergonomic setup while freeing desk space, and from a mechanical standpoint it is well thought out. The steel construction feels reassuringly dense in hand, and once clamped to the desk it remains stable even with a full-size laptop on the tray and a mid-weight monitor on the VESA arm. Setup took around ten minutes, with clear tolerances on the joints and enough friction to prevent drift once tightened properly. In daily use, the range of tilt, swivel, and rotation allows fine positioning without feeling loose or imprecise, which is essential for long working sessions. That said, the laptop tray is the weakest element of the design. While adequately ventilated and secure, it can develop a slight lateral tilt if the fasteners are not perfectly balanced, particularly with heavier laptops. Adjustment is also more incremental than fluid, favouring static setups over frequent repositioning. Overall, it is a solid, functional solution that delivers good ergonomics and value, provided you take time with the initial setup.

This was very easy to assemble and install, and very quickly elevated my desk area look, and freed up so much more desk surface. The desk is IKEA'S MICKE and it fits in very well, you do not need the end clamp, it will sit through the cable hole just fine. The screen is Samsung 24" curved, and though they did supply instructions and longer bolts for curved screens, they were not required as they were far too long. The regular ones for flat screens fit just fine. The laptop stand is perfect, though it was a tad lose at the beginning, that was very quickly remedied by tightening the nuts. The height of the pole for me is perfect. Overall, very impressed and have received many compliments for it!

It is very sturdy, takes some time to assemble but worth it, far tidier than just laptop risers.

The monitor arm is as described by the seller and previous reviewers. Pretty straightforward to install. Very sturdy once all arms and connectors have been tightened. I have it attached to a cheap Amazon desk, which doesn't have much of an overhang/lip, and there is no weakness at all with the clamp. There are plenty of extra screws and plastic washers if you need to attach a curved monitor or something a little more awkward. Overall, I'm very pleased. It's a smart €50 investment for anyone who needs a two monitor or laptop/monitor setup at work or home. I'll be upgrading from a 22-inch to a 27-inch monitor soon, and I am confident that any increased weight won't be an issue.

The only thing i'm annoyed about with this piece of kit is that I didn't buy it sooner. This probably took me about an hour to put together, if that. The space it has saved has completely changed my home workspace for the better. Previously I had my monitor stood on a wooden platform and my laptop on a plastic Nexstand. Neither were particularly sturdy and the creaking from my plastic monitor as it wobbled around every my desk moved was excrutiating. This stand is absolutely rock solid. Barely any movement at all from either my monitor or laptop, and so much extra useable space under both. The arms are reasonably flexible (in so much as it's not TOO easy for them to be moved out of position), but it can take some adjusting if your desk is close to the wall to ensure the joints don't hit it. Overall very pleased, and I may even suggest that we invest in some for the office.

Well made and easy to put together, but just a few inches too short - this seems to be the same across their competitors too, so not sure why they don't make it a little longer
