5.0 out of 5 stars Great product -- expensive but definitely worth it, July 25, 2006

By	Brian Goetz (Williston, VT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this item to wall-mount a 50" plasma TV. It is a very high quality product, was easy to mount (though it definitely takes two people), the instructions were clear, and the manufacturer included all the necessary hardware and then some. Once mounted, it is very stable and easy to adjust, and adjusts in many dimensions (left to right, tilt, pan, roll, in and out). The wishbone extension can hold the TV as close to the wall as 5", or as far as 28". I am very glad I spent the extra few dollars to buy such a professional product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Like Mount but have a few issues, October 3, 2007

By	Go Anywhere (Texas) - See all my reviews

Overall I like the mount - but I have a few issues that other potential buyers might want to be aware of.

First - color (which I attribute to Amazon). The listing (at the time of this writing and when I ordered) does not specify the color anywhere in all the details and the photo is / can be misleading. I wanted and thought I was getting black - and this one is silver.

Second - (a positive but unclear in the listing) the UAL adapter should allow you to connect to most anything (LCD, Plasma) provided you are within weight limitations, etc. The UAL bracket itself is wide - and allows you to move the brackets in and out (while forcing you to be centered!) As far as vertical spacing of the mount - you have two sets of slotted bars. One set is much taller for very large TV's. The long slots in the bars allow considerable adjustment.

That said - it is unlikely you would need to buy a seperate bracket made to fit your specific TV.
Third (a negative) - so many things are done very well in the mount - however there is no graceful way of routing your wires and cables from behind the mount - to the front where you run them thru the cantilever arms - OTHER THAN CUTTING OR DRILLING the plastic insert!

If you are careful and somewhat handy - you can gently cut your holes in the inserts and they are not very visible behind everything with the TV pushed back. This short coming just seems so out-of-character considering the design quality of the rest of the mount (and the cost).

Lastly (my bad) - I mounted a 42" TV on this (a 42" in right in the middle of the bracket ratings between a smaller one and this size) because I wanted to make sure it was solid and secure. I now wish I would have gone smaller - mostly due to difficulty / stiffness pulling the TV out - turning, etc. - and putting it back.

This heavy duty mount is more tuned for a bigger / heavier TV - and I suspect a lessor mount would be more manageable when it comes to moving it in and out.

4.0 out of 5 stars its ok, November 9, 2005

By	Xinqing Luo - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

its pretty good, but the price is probably the best. i found this exact same product at an ABT store for 480 (not including tax). so this saved me a lot of money, but it probably would have been simpler if i bought it from them because they would have installed it. like every constructive item, its difficult to install, but just because everything else is difficult like it, is no excuse for not getting 4 stars.

pros:

1. holds up to around 200 pounds (i use it for a 115 pound aquos sharp LCD hdtv television).

2. cheaper online

3. tilts up, down, left, right.

cons:

1. hard to install

2. big and heavy (find a really big and strong place to put it for support)

overall, it really depends on what you like. if you like life a little more simple, and money doesn't apply to you, buy it from the store, but if your looking for a budget buy and you know what your doing, then buy it online. but this product is really flexible and not that hard to move (but has SOME resistance). highly recommended for big tv's (45"-65")
