I am buying a 26" LCD for my office and would like to mount it on the wall via an articulating arm mount. I know the suggestions around here will be to go Monoprice, but some of the comments on their site aren't exactly glowing. Anyone here have any first hand experience with the monoprice arm mounts? Any other suggestions without breaking the bank?

Thanks!!

Something like this?

I use one of these at home. I've had a 20" widescreen on it and currently have my 24" on it. It costs a lot more than the mounts on MonoPrice, but the thing is an absolute tank. I've never worried about my monitors while they've been on this thing. I expect to be using it for years.

I bought mine from here although it's available from many vendors.

It's major drawback is that is has no vertical adjustment; the height of the mounting plate on the wall is your only adjustment for the vertical height of the monitor. And you will have to mount it into a wall stud or some other similar wall material. So measure carefully! :)

Probably nothing wrong....they look the same as the $100 arms, but I'm hoping someone else has some insight. I may actually try the monoprice mount as they have a 21 day return/no restocking policy.
