Adjustable arm multi-monitor stands

Is having an easy height adjustable stand something you need?

If that's not a deal breaker, I've had two stands from this brand on Amazon

One was that two armed stand which I've stuck on my WFH desk, and I've had a three armed stand from them for the gaming PC. While both have been rock solid, I'm pretty damned happy with the latter, I've got 3 fairly weighty monitors bolted to it and not a hint of sagging or droopage.

As Kenny said it usually takes an allen key and someone to help to get things aligned properly.

In terms of cost, there's an inflated market price out there for branded kit that has no discernible benefit over the cheaper option (like with most things :C )

How much moving around are you likely to be doing with your screens? Is it a setup that you can leave in situ once it's in place or are you going to be adjusting depending on whatever task you're up to?

I've a single monitor stand by 'Invision' and it seems alright in an unremarkable way, I don't think I paid much for it. Stays where I put it, certainly.

I also have 2x Invision mounts - I looked them up and I paid literally £30 for each back in 2017 and they're still fine.

These ones, that are a bit more now:

Ah, I'm on a super-shallow desk at the moment, I needed to get the base up and off there! I used to have my work monitor up on a HTML 4 and a Macromedia Director book to get it up to height, best use I could come up with.

Thanks all! :)

Once height is adjustable initially, it's not something I'll need to change, so one of those T shape ones should be sufficient.

I've got this triple monitor stand.
Wanted it to be stand alone rather than attached to the desk.
It's heavy, chunky and obviously has a lot of adjustment points, but it's good and does the job once you've got it setup. Happily holds 3 x 24" screens
