A good mount should be adjustable for a range of desk or table thicknesses and widths, and it should include cable-management options, too. Monitor arms must also attach sturdily to the desk most secure themselves with a grommet or desk clamp.
Desk mounting and VESA support: We focused on desk-mounted arms for this guide because they’re the easiest to assemble and don’t require putting holes in your wall. Note that monitor arm warranties don’t include damage to the monitor itself. Because of that, we looked at warranty length and customer support to see which companies would stand behind their models and the arms’ expected years of performance while holding up an expensive monitor (or two). Instead, you should expect a monitor arm to last many years and adapt to changes such as a new desk or display. Long warranty: Monitor arm technology isn’t something that will change radically and warrant a replacement every year or two. Smoothness of motion: We preferred monitor arms that were firm enough to stay put while we worked but could reposition easily and didn’t require too much force. Vertical movement (up and down) is the most important range if you work at a sit/stand desk, but side to side, forward and back, and rotation and tilt are also crucial for achieving ideal ergonomics for a wide range of people, postures, and workflows. Wide range of motion: Everyone has a different body, a different monitor, and a different desk setup, so the wider range of motion a monitor arm has, the easier it will be for you to get the perfect placement for your display-especially if more than one person uses it. All the models we tested can work with smaller displays, and a few can even hold larger displays, up to 34 inches. Support for multiple monitor sizes: Because 27-inch monitors have become so common- they don’t cost much more than smaller displays-we considered only monitor arms that could handle a screen at least that size. Maximum extension reach, LX and Tall Pole (how far toward you the arm can reach): 25.6 inches Maximum height, LX Tall Pole: 25.6 inches from tabletop to center of monitor mount Maximum height, LX: 15.4 inches from tabletop to center of monitor mount Supported desktop thickness: 0.4 to 2.4 inches We think paying for a longer guarantee is smarter than prioritizing short-term savings-a monitor arm should last you many years, and the company that makes it should stand behind it. The Ergotron LX is nearly identical to the AmazonBasics Single Monitor Stand, but Ergotron’s warranty is 10 years, far longer than Amazon’s one-year coverage. If you’re over 6 feet tall, the Ergotron LX Tall Pole would be a better option for you. 
The LX has nearly identical side-to-side ranges, tilt, and pan and rotation capabilities as the Fully Jarvis-but its max height range is a few inches lower. If you have a 34-inch monitor or one that weighs up to 25 pounds, the Ergotron LX Desk Monitor Arm will work just as well.
