Is this sturdy enough to support a 21-pound, 27" iMac? Specs say up to 35 pounds but want to know from a user. Thx.

It is a very sturdy unit. I don't have much weight on mine, but I would feel secure in putting 21 lbs. on it.

I think it would totally handle that weight. I have an extremely heavy laptop, external monitor, keyboard and mouse on mine and it's great. (all told probably around 21 lbs.) It's very sturdy. I really love this desk. It has saved my back and I feel so much more productive through the day.

I use my Varidesk Single for a 25 inch monitor & keyboard. To try to answer your question I set a 20 pound HP Touchsmart 320 PC on it, and it seems fine.The Varidesk is sturdy and easy to use. I love being able to stand and work at my computer ! Mary

It can and it will support much more than 35lb. I am still amazed by how well this is made. It is very solid even when it's lifted all the way up. You will love it.

I would think so. It seems very sturdy and well made. I have to say I am impressed at how solid it is and the quality of the mechanism that raises the unit up and lowers it back down. I have been very happy with this product and have recommended it to several people.

I put a 20-lb bag and a 23" monitor on the stand and it was fine at all levels. I don't believe you will have any problems.

I use the largest Apple monitor and have no trouble. It moves smoothly and stays firmly in place. I recommend.

I have a 30" HP monitor sitting on mine and it's worked well so far. I had read a lot about hinge issues before purchasing but I've had mine since November and there have been no issues.

I have my 27" iMac on it and it works awesome. The adjustable height and sturdiness is fantastic.

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.

Hi - we're making a new monitor stand that will safely support heavier monitors & all-in-one's (like the iMac). This stand has room for 2 monitors (I'm testing a prototype now w/ two 19" monitors). Contact us through our website if you'd like to be notified when we release this brand new product. In case you don't want to wait, you can order 2 monitor stands and use them simultaneously to support 2 monitors while standing (so you will have 2 Monitor Stands + 1 Keyboard Tray).

Don't know. Does the iMac have the standard bracket at the back? Also the arms are rated up to 24" and I think this size is right at the limit. An iMac might be too heavy.

Yes, I think this mount can support 27 inch iMac and be stable. It supports my 27" LG E2742V-BN and 32" PanasonicTC-L32C5 very stable. I recommend it.

I have a 27" that it holds nicely, however, I don't think it is the weight you should be concerned about. Too large a monitor will not give you the height or maneuverability that it is designed for.

Personally I wouldn't use anything over 17" on this, however my sister uses it sometimes and her computer is 20" and it hasn't fallen over yet. Use at your own risk after 17" though.

I own a 27" iMac and personally I wouldn't put one on it although it could most likely hold it. In my opinion this stand is for laptops only...

Yes. Many people in my office have been using this with both a laptop and a 24" monitor so a 27" iMac safely.

if you tighten the arm it appears to handle a 27 lb monitor just fine. If you are like me and move it around a lot, then it does become less durable over time and need re-tightening. I have a 28inch monitor on it and it handles it just fine. I kept the monitor attached to the small desk and rolled it some 500 feet with the monitor dangling, and only have had to re-tighten it once so far. Does this help?

I use it with a 24" Dell U2414H monitor and a 15" Thinkpad side-by-side. I'd say you can put a 27" iMac on it without issue.

I have no exact idea of how much weight you can put on this case without affecting a MacBook inside. The metallic MacBook can probably stand more weight by itself. Overall, I would guess that anything above 20 pounds should be avoided.

I think it's sturdy enough to hold you iMac. I have a monitor on the top and keyboard on the bottom.

Yes. I don't know exactly what an iMac weighs, but the unit is very solidly built. I'd guess its working capacity is somewhere above 50 pounds. You've got four solid steel cylinders supporting a sheet of 7/16" glass.

Yes it will hold a 27 inch monitor, yes it is AMAZINGLY sturdy - lean on it - but NOT on the keyboard tray - after a few months of this i did manage to warp mine a little - however, they sent me a new one at now charge! I had asked if I could buy one, and they said 'no need, still under warranty"

I wouldn't go pass 30 lbs which is more than enough...My monitor is 22lbs! This is a solid Iboard.

Its pretty sturdy. Not sure how much weight it will hold. We have 2 laptops on it and you can lean on it with no problem.
