About Monitor Stand Australia

Your trusted resource for ergonomic workspace solutions since 2019. We test, compare, and recommend the best monitor stands for Australian homes and offices.

Our Story

Monitor Stand Australia was born from a simple frustration that many Australians share: the challenge of finding reliable, honest information about ergonomic desk accessories without wading through endless sponsored content and affiliate-driven reviews that prioritise profit over practicality.

Our founder, James Mitchell, spent over fifteen years as an IT consultant, travelling between corporate offices across Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane to set up workstations for employees of all shapes and sizes. He witnessed firsthand how the right monitor positioning could transform someone's workday—reducing neck strain, alleviating lower back pain, and even improving productivity by creating a more comfortable viewing angle.

When the work-from-home revolution accelerated in 2020, James noticed something troubling. Friends, family members, and former colleagues were all reaching out, asking for advice on how to set up proper home offices. They were using laptop screens at awkward angles, stacking monitors on books and cardboard boxes, and developing the same repetitive strain injuries he'd spent years helping corporate workers avoid. The problem wasn't a lack of products—it was a lack of trustworthy guidance tailored to Australian buyers.

That's when Monitor Stand Australia was created. We assembled a small team of ergonomics enthusiasts, hardware testers, and workplace health advocates who share a common mission: to help every Australian create a workspace that supports their health, comfort, and productivity. We understand that a monitor stand isn't just a piece of furniture—it's an investment in your wellbeing.

Today, we maintain an extensive database of monitor stands, risers, arms, and desk converters available to Australian consumers. We evaluate each product based on real-world criteria that matter: VESA compatibility, weight capacity, adjustability range, build quality, and value for money in Australian dollars. We consider factors specific to Australian buyers, such as shipping times from local warehouses, warranty support within Australia, and compliance with Australian electrical safety standards for powered stands.

Our Commitment to You

We promise to provide honest, unbiased recommendations. While we do earn a small commission when you purchase through our affiliate links, this never influences our reviews. We feature products based solely on their merit and suitability for Australian workspaces.

Whether you're setting up a home office for remote work, upgrading your gaming battle station, or outfitting an entire corporate floor, we're here to help you make informed decisions. Our guides, comparison tools, and product recommendations are designed to cut through the noise and give you the practical information you need to elevate your workspace—literally and figuratively.
