What is a floor-stand monitor arm and when should I use one?

A floor-stand monitor arm mounts the arm on a freestanding weighted base that sits on the floor rather than attaching to a desk. This is ideal when: no desk edge is available for a clamp (glass desks, wall-mounted floating desktops); the monitor must be positioned far from the desk (e.g., in a standing kiosk or check-in area); or the monitor must be quickly repositioned to different areas of a room. Floor stands are also used in clinical environments where the monitor needs to be at patient-viewing height independent of any counter. They are heavier and more expensive than desk mounts but offer maximum flexibility. OfficeFurniture2go.com can advise on floor-stand monitor solutions — call 1-800-460-0858.
