atdec VF-AT-D Visidec Focus LCD Double Swing Arm

Pros: I have been using this mount with my 2 Samsung 22" monitors for about a year now and have no complaints. I needed to get the monitors off of the desktop to create some space and this mount did the trick and looks really nice also. Took about 30 minutes to get the mount set up with the monitors. Head that attaches to the monitor extends out to accomodate the larger VESA 100 hole pattern on my monitors. Adjustments are fine to line up both monitors. I used the desk clamp attachment but this also comes with hardware to bolt thru the desk

Cons: Have had no problems with this product

Other Thoughts: Monitors look really nice on the desk. Pretty sleek modern design

Pros: Looks sturdy

Cons: Got this out of the box and the monitor connector hole pattern is non-standard. When realized the hole pattern was too small for the two monitors I planned to use it with, I checked it against four other flat panel monitors. All of the monitors turned out to be the same standard hole pattern. Monitor support device won't work for any of them. Now I have to repack it and send it back. I don't know what monitor this is made for, but it is not the standard hole pattern for flat panels...

Pros: Fairly stable, excellent range of verticle and lateral locations.

Cons: If you plan on raising or lowering your monitors this might not be the product for you. The mount tends to "grab" on the verticle pole. To overcome this you will have to locate your hands on the arms at the proper center of gravity and carefully raise your monitors. For me this is not an issue.

Other Thoughts: I was pleased that this product allowed me to perfectly align two different monitors from different manufactures, since each had their own base with different heights giving the illussion that they would never match.

Pros: This is an excellent value monitor arm set from what I can see. Yes, I just got it. However, I spent some time putting it together and going over the build quality, which is mostly what I want to comment on.

I've seen a lot of complaints that this monitor arm has a lot of plastic. IT DOES HAVE A LOT OF PLASTIC. However, it's less than $160 and has a full metal frame. What exactly would your expectation be?

I am using this monitor arm with two Acer S201HLbd monitors. These are 20" LED displays and they fit perfectly on the setup. The arms articulate well and there's enough clearance with this size monitor to push the arms all the way in.

The metal parts all seem as though they are made well (not machined improperly, no questionable fits). As long as you follow the directions, all of the plastic parts fit well also.

When assembling, make sure you use the included hex wrench and properly tighten the fitting behind the VESA mount points. Mine was loose by default and a slight adjustment tightened and made it much more sturdy.

Cons: I do agree with the comments I've seen that say that moving one monitor moves others. It doesn't bother me in my setup but I could see this as a valid concern for some.

I would NOT recommend this monitor arm for heavy monitors at all. The VESA mounts are plastic and will flex. Stick with light, mid-range LED monitors.

Other Thoughts: As I mentioned, I would stick with lighter monitors. My 20" monitors are just the right size to keep appropriate clearance from the center pole. Larger would probably be an issue.

Pros: I have owned this mount for 2+ years and have yet to have any problems with it. I'd like to see something other than nylon mounts to hold onto the monitors but they work just fine.

People complain about the quality of the screw attachment ... maybe they should buy a REAL desk from somewhere other than walmart and they wouldn't have the issue.

Cons: none

Pros: -cleans up any desk with 1 or 2 monitors
-covered in shiny metal
-flexible layout options for monitor(s)
-easy setup
-cleans up cables too!!
-out of the box it looks like something Cyberdyne would eventually commit to SkyNet's cause

Cons: -as expected, arms start to slightly sag due to weight of monitors.
-the vertical adjustment is REALLY tough to undo/adjust
-if the arms were a few inches longer between the joints, then the max size of recommended monitor would have better placement options for deeper desks.

Other Thoughts: I'm using thus arm for two Samsung 2343 BWX 23" LCD monitors with 100mm VESA option. It's exactly what I needed for lifting and "levitating" my monitors off the desk and it's wonderful to reclaim the space. The only issue is that my desk is a bit deep and so the arms force the monitors to be close and at minimal angle due to the distance they rest at from the base pillar. I had to use zip-ties to keep my fat DVI cables from falling out of the cable compartments of the arms and pillar. Perhaps the next version of this base could take into account the size of new DVI cables.

Pros: This arm is made of quality material and does look very sleek

Cons: THe desk clamp is VERY poorly made, the is unstable and sideways (not perpendicular) because the clamp seat flat on the desk. I own an ergotron arm as well and they don't have that issue. The clamp also has very little contact on the table so if you try to extend the arm the problem becomes worse. I guess this arm is only design for super strong tables (not cheap ikea one)

Lastly the height cannot be adjusted individually so if you have two different monitor you'll most likely have one higher than the other and no way to adjust that unfortunately. Also adjusting the main pole height is a pain in the ***, you have to hold the two monitor first and have someone else unscrew it, without holding the arm put too much presure on the pole and they cannot slide

Other Thoughts: Avoid this product unless you have a STRONG table and identical monitors

Pros: Stylish. Cable concealers are very nice and there is some nifty innovation like the top mount allen wrench holder. Has great potential to be an awesome product.

Cons: For starters the price is ridiculous. Nothing in this product merits it being over $100. I'm writing this right now as I am about to get a pipe wrench to losen the stupid locking mechanism that the arms sit on (it controls it going up/down). I BARELY tightened it and somehow it must have crossed over one of the plastic threads because me and 2 other fully grown men cannot losen this stupid thing. I've already called ATDEC and asked for a new one.

Other Thoughts: Something else to be aware of, maybe it was just mine but it's a little flimsy the way it fits on the main mount pole. You think it would slide on and be firm right? Nope....there is about a millimeter give on the slider so basically when it's all said and done, your monitors are never snug into place, they can free move just a little bit because of that gap. Again, just going back to flimsy design mechanism's that don't merrit it being over $100. Also if you have two 24" monitors you need to get the VF-AT-D-TAA product, this only holds up to two 20" or two 22" ones I believe.

All in all, this is probably still one of the best ones out there but the company BADLY needs to hire someone with higher than a 10 IQ to fix some of these issues.

Pros: It is pretty. It is MOSTLY solid metal.

Cons: the double arm is very lose on the main pole. you would think that it would fit better. it has an alarming amount of freeplay, so much so that the wind from a box fan could move it.

They shipped it to me missing the most important bolt. I called them almost a week ago and i'm still waiting on the bolt to get here.

It feels flimsy when in use. I can't move one monitor with out the other moving a few inches it is very fustrating to get it into the desired position.

Other Thoughts: It does provide the basic function of holding the monitor, but falls very short of my expectations.

I might have givien it three eggs if it wern't for the price. considering what i said above, i feel this product is overpriced.

Pros: Great product for using lightweight dual - ViewSonic VX2250wm-LED Black 21.5" monitors. Very Sturdy design with steel bracket plate for mounting to desk.

Cons: The cable clips are a nice touch, but I recommend reusable zip ties for a more secure look.
