I like my Ergotron stands. One of the best investments I've made on ergonomy was my LX triple display and my LX desk mount notebook arm. They've got quite the selection, though...

Same here



I've got an Ergotron LX (from reviews the Ergotron Neo-Flex has a hard time holding most standard weight 24s). Great investment, tons of desk real-estate, especially if you have a deep desk. Mount the arm, extend it to however you want, and never deal with a monitor base being in the way again :)

Same here, too. (How boring.)

If something with a 100 mm mount is required, one of these V-shaped Eizo feet as included with 20/21" models may be worth a shot, provided someone wants to get rid of one of course.

I have both the LX (at home) and the Neo-Flex (at work). The LX has had no issues with my 24" monitor at home. I have a 22" on the Neo-Flex at work and I agree I think it would have issues with a 24" monitor. If you do decide to get one search google for them before you buy because the price varies quite a bit depending on where you buy it at. For instance newegg has it for $120 but provantage has them for $106.

Yes monitor stands are not cheap and the Good ones like ergotron while expensive are worth every penny. But I looked at what you want again and it seems you don't not want a monitor arm but just a stand that allows you to move the monitor up and down and change the tilt and maybe turn it left to right. Take a look at this one Neo-Flex LCD Stand that is what I have at work and it does the job and it is cheaper ($40 at provantage). But before you go out and buy one make sure to read the notes about mid way down the spec page about putting 24" monitors on it (basicly rotation may or may not work becuase you can't lift the monitor high enough to clear the base to rotate it). Another option which Ergotron will be releasing in September is the Neo-Flex Extend LCD Arm it is listed as being cheaper than the LX by $40. I bet thy have added this one to address the short comings of the Neo-Flex LCD Arm which really does not handle 24" well at all.

EDIT: Forgot to add when you price monitors take a close look at those that offer an adjustable stand and you will note that they are $100 more than the same monitor with out an adjustable stand.

I have the Neo-Flex stand; it does not permit rotating a 24.

Take a look at this one from monoprice. Relatively inexpensive, am contemplating ordering non swivel one myself:

Hmm that is actually not too bad. But I would miss the one thing I really like about the ergotron LX. You just push the monitor around to where you want it and it stays there. So I'm slouching in the chair I just reach out and push it down. I sit up again I just reach out and push it up. And then I want to watch a movie reach out and pull it out so that it is closer to the edge of my desk tilt it forward a little take a seet on the floor with the kids and we can all see it. No fuss adjustment. But you do pay for it. If I did not need the versitality of the LX I would take a look at that monprice stand.

I would definitely shop by reviews. I know you're looking for cheap, but I'm sure you're not the only one looking for an affordable stand that will give you lots of control for your monitor.
