Stacking half your library under your monitor is one way to get an ergonomic setup at your desk. But a better way is with an articulating monitor arm. The Mount-It! Articulating Single Arm Computer Monitor Desk Mount lets you put your monitor in just about any position for optimal comfort at work or home.
This is the favorite monitor arm of the GeekWire news team. The arm grips any desk up to four inches thick with double-locking C clamps for a sturdy setup. You can adjust the arm’s three joints horizontally up to 180 degrees each. The VESA mount itself tilts 180 degrees vertically and can rotate 90 degrees on the fly for portrait viewing.
The only downside is its locking vertical adjustment, which requires you to unscrew part of the arm slightly to move the arm up and down.
The Mount-It! arm holds any monitor with a VESA 75×75 or 100×100 mount, up to 27 inches and 22 pounds. The single-arm model currently sitting near its lowest price ever on Amazon, so go grab one and save your neck some stress.If you have multiple monitors, Mount-It! also makes a model that mounts two full arms on one post plus a third mount in the center.
