I can’t lie, part of me was dreading testing the new Secretlab Heavy Duty Monitor Arm. While I spent many days in a previous career up a very tall ladder fitting large TVs to precarious VESA mounts, something about trying to secure pricey panels and ultrawide screens without a stand gives me anxiety. Now that I’m on the other side of this review, I can safely say those fears were completely unfounded, and it’s all thanks to the tremendous design and abilities of Secretlab’s latest gaming desk add-on.
Coming in at an eyewatering $350 / £299, the Secretlab Heavy Duty Monitor Arm is more expensive than many of the best gaming desks, at least on the budget side of things. So, I don’t blame you if you can’t see the sense in spending that amount on something that’ll merely hold a gaming monitor. The price starts to make more sense when you consider how much it’ll elevate your setup, especially when paired with a juggernaut surface like the Secretlab Magnus Pro. After all, what’s the point in splashing out on large workstations if you’ve got bulky displays dominating available space?
