Hi Skip, have you tried the 27 inch curved panel from samsung(or others) on the 3+1 config? I am planning to buy two Samsung 27 inch(planning to buy the third one during black Friday the yr) and your 3+1 config, Want to know if the 3+1 config support two 27 inch curved mounted on the outer mounts. Can the outer ones be adjusted to line up by the edge to cover the empty middle one?

Any chance the stand goes on sale again? :-)

Thanks Deathblade...

anujcb, I have not tried with curved 27" panels. I have tried with the curved 34" ultra-wide by LG. I've used in a triple Landscape with 2x 25" U2515 from Dell, and it worked fine (though REALLY big). I currently have it in PLP with those same to 25" on the L/R in Portrait.

I don't see what you couldn't adjust everything like you wanted. What's the model of Samsung?

Model of the Samsung curved monitorI am planning to purchase is - S27E510CS

I have another question, My final goal is to set up a 3+ 1 configuration, since I don't have the money right now to spend for this config right away I am planning to do the following in the order. Can you validate if this is a viable plan?


Buy Ergo tech - 100-D28-B13 for $214 - Is it available in WSGF or is it only available in ergotech website?
Buy two S27E510CS from costco - $598+tax

.....Hook up the two Samsung(S27E510CS) and an old Asus I have(VW266H) in 2+1 config

......In a few months time

Buy Upgrade Kit: 3x1-XL(WSGF-5S) - $125
Buy a third S27E510CS(or something similar) $299+tax(or less)

...This will complete the 4+1 configuration.

anujcb,

I moved your posts into this thread, as they are better suited here.

Yes, the plan you have regarding the stand will work. The cheapest I've seen the 100-D28-B13 is at Amazon.com. It's also the reason I don't sell it anymore. They sell it for less than what I can purchase it for.

I'm new here and I am considering buying this monitor stand. I have a couple questions for a particular setup I want to use.

I plan on using the 3+1 monitor configuration with 3 x Asus PB278Q 27" monitors in landscape on the bottom row, and have a 32" TV on top (http://www.frys.com/product/8400928?sit ... IN_RSLT_PG).

Is this set up to ambitious and should I get a smaller TV? I am also worried about the weight. The Asus Monitors weigh in roughly 20 lb and the TV is roughly 13 lb.

Thanks.

I think you'll be okay on the weight. From what I've read on the Asus PB278Q, that weight is with the base still attached. Removing the base removes a significant amount of weight from the display. Do you have any of those panels now? Can you weigh one without the base attached?

You may run into an issue with the overall height. I've just gotten in some taller poles that I will be placing in the store shortly. They are 36", compared to the 28" pole that is standard in the kit. I checked the TV, and you'll need one of the VESA adapters that we sell in the store, as the TV uses a VESA pattern of 200x200.

Currently have 3 Benq 2720xl's and was wondering if I could mount a 34" curved or flat monitor as my plus one above or below? Thanks in advance.

Yes, this will work. I would probably go flat, given the weight and weight distribution of the curved panels (and my experience with the VESA mount on the curved LG).

I've also got 3 of these exact same monitors - what do you think is the maximum size for the 1 above monitor we could mount? I was going to mount a 40" 4K TV above mine coming off the wall, however if I could get something similar (or a little smaller I would suspect) mounted on the actual stand, that would save a lot of hassle.

Thanks for the reply.I know that I can easily get the VESA adapter as an addon item; but if I were to buy the set up you mentioned (3+1 config with the 36" pole) would it be a custom order, something I have to address to you personally before purchasing?

No. Once I get this round of backorder fulfilled, I'm going to load the 36" pole into the store. You can simply add it and the VESA adapter to your cart at the time of purchase.

With the included 28" pole, a 27" monitor is the largest. Going to a 36" pole adds 8" of vertical height.

A 27" monitor has a vertical height of about 14.3" (looking at the Dell 27" panel). I checked Amazon for the Samsung UN40HU6950 (just picked it at random). It's height is 21.2". You're adding about 7" of height, which is within the increase.

The Samsung TV is 25.1 pounds. I'm guessing this is with the stand. That is right at the 25 pound limit of the regular adjustable pivot. I would recommend getting the HD adjustable pivot. Those are $50. I can get a few and put them in the store.

So, with the 36" pole, a 40" HDTV seems to be the limit. We sell a VESA adapter, and can get the HD adjustable pivot for you.

Thanks for the reply mate! I will see how I go with the stand and then perhaps order one later down the track. I don't assume you have anything available now to include in the package with the stand when you send it to suit the 40" HDTV above?

Sending you a PM. I've got the 36" pole. I can get you a custom invoice for that part and include it with your order - before I get it in the store.

Stand for 3x 27" Samsung

Hi there,

I'm new to the forum. I'm using 3x 27" Samsung monitors model S27B350H. I've been using their stock stands on my desk and my neck is telling me its time for a proper stand. Can you help and how much would it cost? I live in Calgary, AB, CANADA.

Thanks

Jason

These monitors do not have VESA mounting holes in the back. Those are required to use any of our stands. Sorry. Monitors of this size with a VESA mounting 100mm mounting pattern would require the WSGF Ultimate v2.

Misaligned Portrait Monitors

Posted: 27 Aug 2015, 04:06
by Kiteman
I have 3 Dell 27" monitors (U2711) mounted in portrait mode. But I can't for the life of me align the edges of the monitors. Essentially the outer monitors hang lower and have a different pitch compared to the middle one. I tried different positions with the pivot but I can't get it to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Here's a link to the instructions I provide with the WSGF Edition stands. It has some helpful tips.

http://www.wsgf.org/f/u/100-D16-B03.pdf

If the outer monitors pitching forward, then you need to use the adjustable feature on the pivot to tilt the monitor back. You should be using the adjustable pivots on the outside, where you can use the screw knob to raise them.

A common issue is not having the center monitor squared. You should get a small wood level, and ensure that it is square and true - particularly checking to see that it isn't pitched forward or backward.
