Title: Any recommendations for a monitor arm + sit/stand keyboard tray?
Post by: hoggy on Fri, 11 November 2016, 02:30:28

My current solution is getting pretty tired.

I've come across this monitor arm
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ergotech-Freedom-Arm-PC-Silver/dp/B00CEHME92 (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ergotech-Freedom-Arm-PC-Silver/dp/B00CEHME92)

I'm also looking at the 3M sit/stand tray, but under the desk there's a metal bar in the way of the track - giving me around 11 inches of room and 3M's tray seems to need 20 odd inches of room.

Any suggestions, please?

I got a duronic DM651X2 (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Duronic-DM651X2-Powered-Monitor-Warranty/dp/B00OZTY0ZS) because it was a lot cheaper than the ergotech one and it works great.

Try to look at the solutions offered by the company http://www.lcdarms.com .A few years ago, I had a very specific task - choose lcd arm for a 27 inch iMac ))), find this company, in the end happily use their product for more than 5 years. I think they have a solution for any problem, sizes, types of mounts.

There's a drop going on that I've been considering on massdrop: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/ergotech-sit-stand-freedom-desk?mode=guest_open

It's a pretty big spend, but it really looks good.  It's also ERGOTECH like the one in the OP.

This is so much harder than getting a regular ol' folding desk that has the telescopic legs for $30
