Customer Review: Very solid mount and arms
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my 32" LCD. Unfortunately that TV had a 200 x 200 mounting setup so I had to buy the LCD Adapter Plate. $19 so not a huge deal, just wish it would've came with this instead of the 100 x 200 plate.
This is so easy to mount, anyone could do it. Simply find a stud and you're in business. I did use the Phillips head screws that came with it but I used my cordless drill to screw them into the wall. It would've been hard work with a screwdriver!
I was a bit worried that such a large TV would cause the arm to sag when fully extended. Not so. This is a solid built, heavy duty arm. Every thing is nice and tight, no play anywhere. I wouldn't have any problem mounting a 42" Plasma on this thing, it could easily handle it if mounted correctly into a solid stud.
Another thing, the plate piece you put on the wall first and then hang the arm on makes it so easy to mount!
Customer Review: Easy install; works great
Summary: 5 Stars
This mount easily installs in just a few minutes, as long as you have the right tools. I used a stud finder to locate the center of a stud, a drill to predrill the four holes (hint - hold a sheet of printer paper against the wall underneath to catch the dust), and the drill again to drive in the screws. The mount then slips over the mounting bracket and tightens with an included Allen wrench. The unit comes with all the necessary parts (including the LCD adaptor plate that Amazon suggests to buy with it - so don't). It has about a dozen different sizes of screws to fit your TV, including washers to get the length just right. Done in 10 minutes. The mount is perfect. The three rotation points and the tilt/pan swivel of the mount at the TV insure you can position it wherever you want. There's a tension screw to adjust how easy the TV is to tilt/pan. Overall, very satisfied. Lots of spare parts left over; I might eBay the LDC adaptor plate!Customer Review: Excellent product!

This product is awesome! It is very stout and well built, heavier than the 22" LCD I have mounted to it. It came very well packaged, with hardware that was neatly packed in individual sealed bags. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, though installing it is pretty straight forward. The tension on the swing out arms can be adjusted, as can the tilt up to 15* (though that must be locked in once set). It swings out up to 17" from the wall. The finish is clean and blemish free. Although I have nothing but praise for this product, I will say that the included #14X2" screws that are included to mount it to the wall would be better replaced by 1/4"X3" lag screws (which I used as did others). I used some blue thread locker on the set screw used to lock the arm to the plate on the wall, and also on the screws used to mount the arm to the TV. Installation took me about ten minutes. Highly recommended!Customer Review: A Good Investment

So, I was in tough spot. I had a 23" widescreen monitor taking up most of my desk. On one hand, I wanted something functional, but on the other I didn't have a lot to spend.
After much research, this little gem popped up. I wasn't familiar with the brand, but the price was right. The way it's screwed into a wall means that you *have to* get through a support stud(Not always the most convenient based on your furniture arrangement), but that's a very small complaint.
I can move the arm freely left and right, it stays exactly where I put it every time. Additionally, the connector point to the monitor allows me to rotate the monitor freely up to 360 degrees. Call me a geek, but it's cool to be able to turn my monitor 90 degrees to read comics, etc.
I'll be acquiring a secondary monitor soon, and I definitely plan to purchase another one of these for it.
Customer Review: Very solid and compact
Summary: 4 Stars
I used this mount for a 40" Samsung as well as a couple 26" Samsungs, it worked perfectly in all locations. I agree the Philips-head mounting screws they give you are wrong, you should switch to something you can put some torque behind, like a 1/4" hex head lag bolt.
My only real complaint is that the articulating feature is too stiff. I like to swivel the TV so I can watch it from the hot tub, but it takes considerable force to move it. I've seen others that can be moved with your little finger, not this one. Also the tubes that you run the wires thru are small, you won't fit more than two or three cords (HDMI sized) in before the little plastic breakout caps no longer go back on.
One other odd thing, two of the mounts came with the large VESA plate for bigger TV's, one did not, same model number though. Lucky I only needed one.
