Thanks a lot for the valuable detailed response!
// If anything or for future readers, I've decided to go for Ergotron LX for now. I've decided to prefer mechanical springs over gas (supposedly, mechanical lasts longer). And even more importantly, I want specifically a string mechanism for the "upwards"/"downwards" tilting of the monitor. One where you'd have the spring itself, and would be able to adjust the spring force with an additional screw (mechanically, internally, it presses against one of the spring's ends if I get it correctly, so is quite straight-forward and durable). This way, the tension is the difference between the monitor's angular force and the spring's angular force, not just the monitor against tightened screws. I hope it'll provide for easier adjustments. Ergotron has it as part of its promise as well, so if that won't work very well, I'll feel it in my rights to return it. So for now I've settled for this.
I really appreciate the responses still! ๐
np :) I was idle waiting for stuff at work so i had time to spare for writing overly long comments.
Glad you found something that fits your needs. And also nice to share your pick for others ^^
