Ergonomic Monitor Arm

Hi,

I’m looking for a monitor arm that will give full movement of my 22" TFT while sitting at my desk.

Does anyone have any recommendations and how much? :cool:

Define full movement?

I have a wall mounted arm that moves horizontal planes and also monitor tilt... do you need height adjustment as well? That is where it begins getting expensive.

I would like to move it forwards/backwards, left/right, up/down with monitor tilt please.

What wall mount do you own?

Thanks

I got two of these - http://tvstandsfurniture.org/images/lcd monitor wall mount 1.jpg

Will be getting a 3rd soon for eyefinity. Nice and low profile and allow my monitors to go flat against the wall for storing. All depends on your setup I suppose... mine is a desk setup so no need for adjusting height at all.

Thanks for the info. The range of this wall mount looks quite limited. I can imagine still needing to lean forward over the desk (bad posture). I would like an arm (on desk or wall) that has a large range (moving forward/backwards) i.e. so the monitor would be directly above my keyboard. I want my monitor 6" from my eyes. I know it's bad but its essential.

Thanks

A monitor arm that attaches to the back of my computer chair that I could pull down to the correct level would be great. Could anyone make this for me please ?

Good stuff, that looks perfect. I've just requested a quote to see the damage.

Thank for all your help.

I use 3 LCD107 arms for my eyefintity set up. They have a large amount of forward back movement, tilt, side to side, but no up and down movement.

I wanted a large movement for mine as I have a very large desk.

They require wall mounting

Check out the No competitor hinting! for further details on them.
