VideoSecu LCD TV monitor wall mount swing arm for most 10" to 22" display VESA75X75/100X100 3VJ Review

I bought this to mount a 20" flat screen on the salon bulkhead in my 34' sailboat. So far it is working as expected, but I need to hold the TV against the bulkhead while underway with a short shock cord. All of the articulated joints need to dogged down (tightened) with an allen-wrench/hex-key, which is fine for this application. For the price, $15+/-, it is sufficient for my needs.

Vanguard VM-842C Column Type Television and Monitor Mount (Black) Review

I bought this desk mount for the 19" LCD monitor I just bought. I did my research on desk mounts and I'm pleased with my choice.
It is solid metal, well made, every joint is adjustable..side to side and up and down. At the lowest point it holds the bottom of my monitor 1 1/2" above the desk top. I'm short, so I wanted something to let the screen sit low. I also wear bifocal glasses.. so having a lower screen means not having to kink my neck back to see through the bifocal part of my glasses.
Vanguard includes 4 sets of different sized screws to attach the Vesa mount to the monitor. I had no problems figuring out which size screws to use for my monitor.
The arms have plates to run the cords in the bottom of the arms and hold them secure. No plastic clip ons, although they provide a few plastic cinch ties, of which I didn't need. You'll need a very small phillips head screwdriver to unscrew the plates and reattach them. A "glasses" screw driver will work very nicely. I suggest mounting the cords in the arm, before attaching the mount to your monitor/TV.. those tiny screws could fall inside the Monitor.
The mounting head swivels up and down, while the joint just behind the mount swivels side to side. All the joints allow you to swing your monitor out of the way and adjust it further back or closer with nice tight joints. Once it's in place, it stays there, until you move it. No vibration from typing either! It's solid. There is also a screw on the mount to adjust the tilt of your monitor. Untighten to adjust, retighten to keep it snug.
It comes with a second mounting screw to place through your desktop, but the hand tightening over-the-edge clamp is big enough to be as secure as you'd want it. If you were mounting a heavier monitor or TV, you would probably need the extra secure screw hole on the top of the base that would screw into the top surface of your desk.
All in all, it's an excellent product and worth the price.

Inland Pro LCD Monitor Arm 200 (VESA, Desk, & Wall Mount) Review

Inland Pro LCD Monitor Arm 200 (VESA, Desk, and Wall Mount)

Overall, for 30 bucks, this isn't a bad mount, but it wasn't what I was expecting from the images. For the good, it seems pretty sturdy, and will do what it's meant to do, but that's about it. First, this mount does not freely articulate. What appears to be a joint at the bottom of the mount arm is just a decorative cover. Under the cover is a grouping of screw holes that allow you to fix the arm in a variety of positions. There are 4 allen head screws that hold the arm in place. In order to elevate or lower the arm, you would have to remove the cover and those screws, and even then, there's only about 4 or 5 settings, so it's not limitless. The head of the mount where the monitor mounts however, does freely articulate up/down, side to side, and allows for screen rotation. Also the arm while it doesn't adjust up and down freely, does swivel as you might expect.
The next bit that's a little misleading is the wall mount option. Yes, it can be mounted to a wall, but there's no hardware included for that. The wall mount is accomplished by leaving off the clamps used for desk mounting, and using the holes provided for that part to attach the arm to the wall. The problem is the holes are about 3/8" in diameter, so you will need pretty large lag bolts if you want to use them for that. I simply drilled 2 smaller holes in bracket and used 3" drywall screws, which worked perfectly. But if you aren't prepared to do a bit of modification to the mount to facilitate wall mounting, you'll need some pretty big screws or lag bolts.
I rated it a 3 mainly because I think there's some intentional misleading in the design at the bottom to make you think it raises and lowers freely, and that wall mounting isn't quite as easy as they may like you to think. Aside from that it will certainly do its job, and will do what I needed it for. But if you need something with full articulation and ready adjustment, this one probably isn't for you.

Ergotron 45-174-300 Neo-Flex LCD Arm-Extension Grommet Desk Mount Review

The Neo-flex stand might seem pricey to some, but this is a case of getting what you pay for as it is well worth the money. This stand is versatile: You can remove the extension to shorten it and it comes with parts for either a surface edge or grommet mount. The machined aluminum parts and overall aesthetic of this LCD panel VESA mount are beautiful -- and made to last. The directions have no text, but surprisingly the drawings are so well done that I understood every step of the disassembly and reassembly process (I only did this because I shortened it and then changed my mind later: It comes packaged with the extension and surface edge mount version installed and ready to go). Every joint either pans, swivels or tilts. Nothing but praise for this item (my only minor complaint is that there are no spare parts included, so don't lose any unpacking).

One of the threads for the tightening knobs was slanted. Not sure if this was the caused, but the stand would not hold my 22" ViewSonic monitor upright in portrait mode. Also, buyers should clearly understand that you cannot swivel the monitor with this mount - in order to switch between portrait and landscape mode, you must remove the bracket mounting plate from the back of the monitor and reinstall it in the other mode; otherwise the hooks that attach the monitor to the bracket wouldn't work (they slide into the bracket vertically.
