A monitor stand for supporting a screen unit is provided. The monitor comprises a supporting unit, a mounting unit, at least one contact wall and at least one brake unit. The brake unit includes a resisting block capable of moving between a first position and a second position. A lower frictional threshold force is generated between the resisting block and the contact wall if the resisting block is at the first position; an upper frictional threshold force is generated between the resisting block and the contact wall if the resisting block is at the second position. The mounting unit moves against the supporting unit and toward a first direction or a second direction, and the resisting block is at the first position if the mounting unit moves toward the first direction, and the resisting block is at the second position if the mounting unit moves toward the second direction.
