Monitor Arms and Desk Mounts

These five mounts are compared on screen count and size, per screen load capacity, VESA patterns, mount method, motion adjustment and price. Options range from a single screen clamp mount to a quad monitor arm and a large format floor stand, with load capacity and supported screen sizes varying considerably. Buyers should check their monitor weight and VESA pattern against each listing, since some specifications here are not stated for every model.
