I bought this mount because it popped up with the "frequently bought together" option with the ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q 27" monitor... It unfortunately isn't very well suited from my experience... Please note however, that the product on it's own is a solid item and if it wasn't for the incompatibility with my specific monitor, this would be perfectly fine.

The monitor is lighter than the minimum specs of this mount so you CANNOT adjust the height, it just pops right back up to the default height. I tried loosening the mount to as loose as it will go but it still can't hold the position...

The mount CANNOT hold the rotated portrait position due to the monitor design and the swivel on the mount CANNOT be tightened without taking off the monitor from mount and even then, if you turn it around a few times the whole thing comes loose again...

Please bear this in mind with your purchase

This arm does what you expect it to. You can move your monitor in any direction and rotation you want.

However, I've seen some reviews saying that for their monitor weight ( mine is 6kg ), that it just wants to rise all the time.

Well this is simply not reading the instructions or taking the time to look at the arm itself.

You can adjust the gas sprung part of the arm using an Allen Key at the base of the gas strut, located on the middle joint of the arm.

I've got mine fully to the left, which is right for the lighter monitor. However out of the box it felt good for a 9kg monitor or so. So out of the box, I can see why the arm wou...view more This arm does what you expect it to. You can move your monitor in any direction and rotation you want.

However, after adjustment, it is absolutely perfect.

Seems to work well - was a little TOO robust for a smaller monitor, had to weigh it down slightly to stop it rising to the top even at minimum weight adjustment. For a bigger screen though it is perfection. Love the extra ports.

This monitor arm works perfectly and is easy to set up. It's perfect especially for larger monitors as it can handle and adjust to more weight. I mounted a 32' monitor on it and it works great!

Bought this for a 32" Samsung monitor and installed on my desk with the clamp accessories that comes in the box, liberates plenty of room on my desk and makes it easy to move and adjust monitor position, it is very sturdy. a Nice plus is the USB and audio/mic connections that come in the base Bought this for a 32" Samsung monitor and installed on my desk with the clamp accessories that comes in the box, liberates plenty of room on my desk and makes it easy to move and adjust monitor position, it is very sturdy. a Nice plus is the USB and audio/mic connections that come in the base

Good quality monitor arm. All metal and solid build quality. Only complain i have is the difficulty of mounting the monitor. one person has to hold the monitor while the other align the screw holes.

Great sturdy monitor stand but as other reviews state, this will not support a light to average weight monitor. The gas arm will just spring back up to the max height, rendering it useless for my current setup with 24inch monitor.

Solid desk clamp and/or grommet option for ultra wide monitors.
Pro's: A lot of versatility in how you can position your monitor.
Ability to tighten or loosen swivel points in the arm.
In built cable management.
Connectivity to audio jacks allowing for arm base to be used as an audio plugin for convenience.
I managed fairly easily to mount a 7kg 34 inch monitor and clamp it to a desk solo. It was sturdy enough to hold its own weight while I secured it.

Cons: The arm comes with two provided Allan keys for assembly and adjustment. The swivel joint that keeps the monitor vertical uses a Allan key size not provided. Luckily I
have an Allan key set so I could fix the "Slouch and drupe" However, a real oversight on locteks part considering the instructions advise you to use Allan key 'G'.

Easily could have been a perfect score. The issue may have been limited to me as I don't see others having this issue. It didn't ruin my day..but I could see how it could ruin someone else's.
