How fragile is the space for the monitor? Is it frail enough that if I lean on it, it will break?

My son hasn't used it much but I don't think it will take a lot of weight. He isn't even putting a PCu on it. He has a lap top and a Microsoft surface pro 2 that he will be using on this desk. It is great for the price but not a super sturdy desk. I hope this helped

This thing is so fragile the entire desk will break if you lean on it, unless you lean it on something else to support the weight. When my printer prints it actually moves the desk back and forth. I wouldn't purchase this ever again.

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

It's very sturdy---I have a three monitor setup myself but they're standard LCD monitors and don't weigh in anywhere near 100lbs. Maybe 30lbs. Nevertheless, I don't think 100 lbs would be an issue. One thing though---the top is narrow for a desk. If you have the old-style CRT type monitors you probably won't have enough room (depth) to put them and have any desk space left. I guess one caveat---if the monitor stand is one of those single clamps that hold the three monitors---I don't know about that. I'd be reluctant to focus a hundred pounds of weight on a square-inch or so of glass surface. Hope this helps---it's a great desk to work at because your feet aren't blocked in the center.

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 purchased this and so far has been very good. I would make sure you have a pretty strong desk to support it though as all the weight is clamped on. It has a small piece of foam rubber on the to but I added another small piece to make sure it didn't scratch the top. I wasn't overly concerned on the bottom where it clamps on I am also using 2 -27 in and 2-25 inch monitors with it.

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.

Not sure if we received a faulty one but ours leans with a 13 lb 27" monitor. We did have issues with the internal bolts at the base of the cylindrical pipe screwing in all the way so it's not very sturdy. Would have been better if they had welded the vertical arm to the base (or got better screws for the base/vertical arm).

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.

Um, no, Jeffrey. As you can see, this 4-monitor stand has a 2-screw clamp. The inner sides of the clamp (which is about 4x4 inches) are padded to avoid damage to the desk. If you do buy this item, make sure your desktop is at least 1 3/4 inches thick. The monitor stand is not that heavy, but having four monitors will make it moderately heavy. So, if you're relying on cheap furniture like particleboard, forget it, as you'll risk cracking and breaking a chunk off your desk and dropping the monitors in the process. By the way, this stand is one of the best things I've ever bought.

Not sure about the weight but depending on the size of the monitor I would say it should hold the monitor.

Can't speak for weight limit but I'm using it with two 22 inch monitors; probably 10 lbs each and it doesn't have any noticeable flex.

trust me on this, I was skeptical, and the customer service representative had to talk me into it, you need to remove the stand from the computer and force it into the second position, it is difficult, but it wont break, I suggest placing the stand on the floor and using your foot as a brace, you wont have to do this ever again though.

I have an HP 23" all in one unit (I think heavier than your normal monitor) and it holds just fine. I thought the desk was more sturdy than it appeared to be - and for the price, pretty well constructed.

It should be fine. The desk is really steady.. I have a 30 in monitor and small factor cpu on the desk with no issue..

I have my all in one monitor and several textbooks on mine. I wouldn't put anything extremely heavy on it.

Unless your monitors are super heavy, there's no need. I've had no issues with it tilting and it has been very solid.

This stand is only rated for 13 lbs per monitor. Mine are over 20 and caused it to sag a lot. So I've just got a little stand/stick under each side monitor to help support it. I tried tightening the nuts as much as I could and it still couldn't support the heavier monitors.
