Opinions on these monitor mounts and suggestions please

[Sin Stalker]

So I prefer my monitors mounted to the wall. However currently they are not properly aligned and my OC can't handle it.  This is due to them all being individual arms without the ability to rotate or move up/down. 

 

My goal is to replace them with either a triple monitor mount, a dual monitor arm plus single monitor arms or three single monitor arms. However due to the price of triple monitor arms, I am considering the dual plus one option.

 

I have three monitors. One 24" (center), one 25" (left) and a 19" (right). I use them all as I multiple task as I game and stream, or content create. 

 

The only monitors with the range of motion I am looking for that mount to the wall, that I have found, are the following:

I also noticed that these all have "gas springs". I know the struts on my cheap office chairs always go out very quickly and I am wondering if these are similar? If so, I'd like to make sure I can buy one that'll last at least a few years or will have a replaceable "gas spring". Out of the ones I listed here, are any meant to be avoided or regarded in high esteem?

 

 

 

Are there any monitor mounts (triple mounts or a combination of mounts) that are recommended?

The dual + single mount setup will give you a lot of adjustability for your monitors, or three single mounts will also do the job.  We've been making mounts with gas spring support for around 5 years now, and the failure rate in that time has been incredibly low.  I would expect a mount like this to last for a very long time, and if there ever are any problems, our customer support team is very quick to respond! 

 

I'm not finding any affordable triple monitor wall mounts around right now, at least from a quick search.  I'll have to forward that to our R&D dept. and see if that's something we can look into...

What do you consider to be "a very long time," in actual numbers?

I can't speak for all arms but these have been very reliable, I own 4 and 1 of them I've owned for several years no problems, also I'd go with 3 separate arms personally.

It's difficult to pin down exact numbers since the average lifespan can vary depending on conditions and use.  Standard gas springs like we use generally last 30,000 to 40,000 cycles before their performance begins to degrade.  When sitting unused, they'll easily last for decades.  We have found that when mounted in an arm, it can sometimes help to move them up and down a couple times every few months to keep the internal oil and gas pressure primed for best operation.
