This is a review For the fellowes platinum series dual monitor arm
on May 3, 2024
Posted by: Annabelle
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me first start with a rating on this arm. It is outstanding, by far a better unit than the one I currently own I will give it a 9 1/2 out of 10.
The feature that really stands out is the stability of the arms. The unit that I have now adjust with a series of clamps and knobs that one seem to loosen fairly often and two are difficult to adjust. The fellows platinum series monitor arm adjust using a tensioning system that easily supports the weight of my two monitors. Each arm, also adjust independently. The adjustments take some time to get right but once they are, it’s set.
The second feature that makes his arm extremely versatile is the easy movement of the monitors once they’re mounted, obviously they move independently but they give a 90% turn top to bottom, a 360° turn sideways, and 180° turn off to the left or to the right. When I have a visitor at my office I can easily move the screen so i the screens are out of the way. And while it sounds like a small feature, all tools that you need to assemble are included in the cables to connect the monitors are also included.
So you ask where did the half point go on the rating. It takes some time to set up the adjustments and to assemble but it’s time well spent.
This monitor arm is by far the best arm I have ever owned and I strongly recommend that if you’re having issues with your current arm this is the one that you want. David Brown.
Pros: clears off most of my desk
Cons: assemble time
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Monitor Arm
on July 15, 2019
Posted by: Bacom
This arm is perfect for what I need! It was easy to install and I liked having the option to either use a clamp or mount through a small grommet hole. It feels really sturdy and strong and keeps my desk looking clean. I have pretty heavy monitors and after adjusting the tension of the arm I’m able to move my monitors around really easily and I like having the option of charging my phone through the base of the arm.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just what I needed to free up desk space
on November 6, 2022
Posted by: JimGA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. I wanted a solution to gain desk space for my 2 monitor setup for a long time. The Fellowes Platinum Series Adjustable Dual Monitor Arm was the answer to my need. The product is well made, very strong. My older 24" HP monitors are heavy, they are 17.9 pounds each. That is .3 pounds each more than the recommended maximum weight for this product which is 17.6 pounds. However, I have no issues with the support of them. I found no change overtime with the set height or tilt. Be advised that to get the support of these heavy monitors, you will need to turn the height strength adjustment screw several times and tighten the tilt bolt a bit. I am pleased with the setup and recommend it to anyone looking for a solution to cramped desk space.
Pros: strong, saves space on your desk
I would recommend this to a friend!

Transformed My Inefficient Desk Space; Useful for Reading Documents On-Screen in “Portrait” Mode
on November 15, 2022
Posted by: April44
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not a “minimalist” when it comes to the items on my desk space – I have many papers, notebooks, and office supplies. Mounting the Fellowes Platinum Series Dual Monitor Arm vastly reduced the footprint taken by my pair of Dell 24-inch monitors. I didn’t realize how much valuable desk space could be freed up until I saw it with my own eyes – now I feel like I’m not constantly working (or typing) on top of my various stacks of papers. Another thing I appreciate about the fully adjustable arms is the ability to easily rotate the monitor(s) into “portrait” mode, which is particularly helpful when long reviewing or drafting documents on-screen. I plugged my desktop fan in using the handy USB ports provided at the base of the monitor arm.
I’m not a “handy” person, so it took me a while to set up the monitor. While the instructions and number of parts/screws initially seemed overwhelming at first, it made more sense to me after realizing that they accounted for choice of mount (e.g., clamp vs. grommet) and presumably the wide range of consumer monitors out there (i.e., a few sizes of screws/parts are provided to ensure a tight fit with the Fellowes arms).
All in all, the product is very well-designed and sturdy. Considering how much time is spent working from home, I’m not sure why I didn’t look into workplace accessories like the Fellowes monitor arms that address both comfort as well as efficiency, before! I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Space Maker
on November 23, 2022
Posted by: Chiro2Teacher
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dual arm monitor is easy to put together and mount. Love that there is a place to store the Allen wrenches that come with the mount to put it together and to adjust the arms. With the monitors up higher and not needing to be on stands I have more room on my desk for all the other stuff that is on my desk. I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review
Pros: easy to assemble
Cons: not enough room to sit laptop between monitors
I would recommend this to a friend!

High Quality Monitor Arm.
on November 26, 2022
Posted by: ProductReviewerErick
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. The quality of the monitor arms feels premium. I like the tension in the arm. It is easy to move up and down. I wish the arm cushions that contact the desk are permanently attached, instead of stickers. I am afraid I would lose the cushions when I move the arms. In my video, I was worried about the computer clamp would beat up my desk, but there is no damage so far. Great Monitor arms overall.
Pros: high quality metal, great tension
Cons: only hold up to 27 in, cushion sticker doesn't stay on very well
