Best Monitor Stand for me...

[JimmyP]

Good Morning everyone!

 

At work I use a 27in iMac (30.5 LB) and an Asus PB238Q (18.5 LB). I want to put them on a monitor stand so I can get them off my desk.

 

My Desk Setup

My 27in iMac is caddy cornered in the corner with a desk grommet directly behind it. my PB238Q is to the right of it propped up on a box. 

 

My Dilemma

I need to get a monitor stand that will go in the Grommet hole so my iMac can be centered on the hole and a monitor arm will extend out to the right to support my PB238Q. i don't need a third monitor arm because to my left is where i meet with clients so i will never put a monitor in front of their faces... lol *there is no place to clamp a stand behind my desk*

 

My Question

Does anyone have an recommendations for a good monitor stand that can mount my iMac on the main pole and only have one arm that can extend to the right? 

 

 

Thanks everyone!

anyone know of a good product?

I don't think an iMac has a VESA mount... even if it does, its pretty heavy..

There are adapters that are made to make iMacs vesa mount compatible (check the compatibility of your specific iMac) but I really suggest to either wall mount or have large clamp down bolts on the edge of a thick desk since the grommet holder may not be able to support a stand with 2 monitors of that weight.
