Neomounts FPMA-D550D3BLACK Monitor Arm Black

• Product general and unboxing -

Product is neatly packaged, and largely pre-assembled. The description that comes with it is simple and easy to follow. The bracket is neatly matte black in color. There are also clips on the horizontal arms for cable management.

• Assembling -

The standard offers two forms of installation; clamps on the desk, and through the desk. I myself opted for clamps on the desk. The clamp that clamps around the desk can be set in two positions; one for thicker desks and one for thinner desks. I had to put the clamp on the thin position myself, that was a matter of tightening and loosening two screws. The screws, however, were quite tight, and could not be loosened with the supplied keys. After the desk clamp, I attached the arms. These clamp around the standing 'post' and are very firmly attached. My 27" monitors hang easily 18cm from the desk, and could be hung about 5cm higher.

• Confirm monitors -

Two vesa brackets are included for the monitors. These brackets come on the mounting points on the back of the monitor. These brackets are securely fastened and there is no play. Tip: when attaching the brackets, I recommend sticking a piece of felt between the monitor and the bracket to prevent any damage. After mounting the vesa brackets, it is a matter of hanging the monitor on the arm. This is a matter of sliding the vesa bracket over the end of the arm and tightening a screw. Couldn't be simpler. The only drawback is that this form of attachment ensures that there is some play between the arm and the bracket. The monitors can therefore 'wobble' a bit. I solved this myself by pasting something in between.

• Fine tune -

Adjusting the monitors was very simple. There are plenty of adjustment options and it was easy to match both monitors. My monitors are not the lightest, but hang on these arms just fine.
