Thinking about getting a monitor arm setup for your dual screens? Can't decide between one dual arm or two single arms? The right choice depends on your desk space and flexibility needs. Here’s a quick comparison of each option:

Two Single Monitor Arms
  • Flexibility: Each monitor can be adjusted independently, making it easier to create an ergonomic setup tailored to your needs, improving comfort and productivity. Two separate arms make it easier to put two monitors side by side, while a dual monitor arm will force monitors to be placed much further forward when the desk is against a wall. Additionally, you can add or remove one monitor without disassembling the entire setup.

  • Easier upgrades: With two single arms, it’s easier to upgrade to larger or heavier monitors without compatibility concerns, as dual monitor arms often have more restrictions on the size or weight each arm can support.
  • Weight distribution: Two separate arms distribute the weight across two mounting bases, improving overall stability.
Dual Monitor Arm
  • Space saving: Dual monitor arm uses only one mounting base, taking up less desktop space—perfect for smaller desks or setups with lots of equipment.
  • Cost-effective: Usually more affordable than buying two separate arms. If it meets your monitors’ size and weight spec, a dual monitor mount can fit your needs perfectly.
Making Your Decision

Which Monitor Arm Setup Is Right for You? Consider your desk size, how often you'll adjust your monitors, potential future upgrades, and your budget. Prioritize these factors to create your dream dual monitor setup and boost productivity!
