I want to use this to hold a single monitor. Is this possible? can it carry that weight?

No. This is a pretty flimsy contraption. I had trouble getting it to work even as specified.

Yes, it will hold a monitor as long as it's not one of those old clunkers ;)

I use it for a computer desk with a monitor on top. It is fairly sturdy. easily can hold 50 lbs probably more..

This was answered before under will it hold a 32" TV, but here's the answer:It's sturdy for my 20" flat screen monitor. Eofficedirect.com has the product on it's site and says it can hold up to 60 pounds.http://www.eofficedirect.com/PKTKMS400/Single-Level-Height-Adjustable-Stand-17w-x-13-1-4d-x-3-to-6-1-2h-Black.html

My screens are 19 and 14 pounds and it holds just fine at max extention (~2ft). However mine is mounted through a 1 inch mdf desktop with 2 inches of clearance from the edge of the desk. When I was using the clamp to decide where to permanently mount it, the arm was a little unstable and I did not feel comfortable leaving them mounted like that for any extended amount of time. The arm is definitely strong enough to hold both your monitors, it's more a question of how you plan on mounting it. In short; it will hold just fine if you don't use the clamp and have a good solid desktop.

Yes and no. Not in it's default configuration, but if you purchase an extra arm or set of arms, then yes. A single pole can support up to 4 monitors if they're not too big (but they would have to be quite large to overweight it.) The dual arm on this model is a dual base pole mount, so the arms won't be able to move 1 over the other, but if you add a second dual arm or a single arm mount to the pole, then you can stack them however you want. 1 over 1, 1 over 2, 2 over 1 or 2 over 2. With 3 single arm bases for the pole, you can even go 1 over 1 over 1 (3 high. I did it as a test, but hurt my neck trying to look that far up.) You can also add extra arm extensions, but be aware that doing so increases the effective stress on the pole itself. As an example of how sturdy these pole mounts are; I use 27" displays (all Asus, so a little lighter than some if not most other brands of 27" flat panels,) and I mount the poles by using a drilled hole (not the clamp,) When I had the displays all mounted, the levered force of the displays nearly tipped my desk over (a solid wood, 7 foot wide, 2 foot deep monstrosity) and the poles never showed any sign pf being near their weight limit. I had to add 25 kilos as a counter weight. I have my displays mounted in a row of 3, not stacked. 1 display has 2 arm extensions, the other 2 use only 1 arm extension. I also use 2 poles, because the stress of 3 displays on single pole would destroy my desk (not the pole.) Of all the desk mountable poles I have ever used (and I have had to use many, until this brand,) Cotytech is the most durable, versatile and useful of them all. They are, hands down, the best. If you want a Cotytech setup that is for only 2 displays and you want them stacked, then buy a single arm set and purchase a second arm mount for the pole. These are extremely easy to configure however you want, provided you buy the mounts and extensions necessary for the configuration you want.

I bought it to use it with my laptop, 17" monitor. Holds it with no problem, can't really say how much weight. Sorry.

If you mount it to the desk but I would not trust using the base for that. Depending on the size of your monitor it could become too heavy and tip over.

As long as the back of the monitors have the proper mounting configuration, the stand will probably "support" the two monitors. The issue is not the weight of the monitors, but lifting the stand to a vertical position after mounting the monitors to the stand (assuming that the monitors were mounted while laying flat). It is cumbersome, at best, and not improbable that the stand will become unbalanced and fall over. Careful mounting, lifting and an extra set of hands can reduce this risk.

I think it will support a big monitor. I have a 23 monitor sitting on mine, and it is very stable. Consider the dimensions of the top, also, 9.5 x 12 inches. The top is one piece of presswood with a nice grey coating on it.

It's overkill for a single monitor. It's designed for two to free up desktop space. There is no counterbalance to offset the weight of a single monitor.

I'm not sure, but I think a monitor might be to heavy. The legs have to be bent somewhat for stability.

Hello David,Yes the mount will be able to hold a maximum of 27" per screen and a weight of 22lbs per screen. Thank you for your question.Taylor W.VIVO

i have 2 monitors and a vertical dual monitor rack on it. total weight is about 50 lbs and the desk is fine.

It is very sturdy (I'd feel comfortable with putting two LED monitors on it), but not really big enough to handle the monitors side by side. 50# is really excessive.

I would think the case is strong enough to support a monitor. But keep in mind that is not what it was designed for.

Don't know how much weight can hold, but is very sturdy. Held a fairly heavy computer for me. Should have no trouble at all holding a 23 inch lcd tv.

Yes. I believe it will hold that weight. its very sturdy built. I think it would even hold an old style tube monitor which are very heavy.
