Could you explain why you like this better than a traditional multi monitor layout? And how wouldit compare to vertical monitors horizontally next to each other?

With the (traditional) horizontal layout you have to turn your head or your complete body towards a monitor. With a vertical setup, you can always sit/stay in a symmetrical way towards your monitors and instead of turning your head you have to tilt it.
In the end, it all comes down to how your body fits into that setup, but I feel a lot more comfortable if I don't have to turn my head. Tilting just feels better (less asymmetrical stress on my shoulders when you keep your head in a fixed position).

I never worked with vertical monitors for a long time so far, but I guess three would be a better choice for me than two, as I could have one centered monitor. A pro for vertical monitors would be that at least they would reduce the angle I have to turn my head.
For reading longer articles/text or even just code, I prefer it vastly. My current (work) setup is one landscape monitor in the middle and two portrait mode monitors on the sides. The only change I would personally make is add another landscape monitor right above my current one.
