This wall mount amazed me with the hardware included. Every screw that could be used with a TV out there was included. It was simple to install and does the job, why pay a lot more for a similar unit. It doesn't let you tilt the TV, but if you just look for a mount that allows you to hang your TV flat on the wall, this is the unit to buy. I used it for a 32" LCD flat panel.

This review is from: Peerless SF640 Universal Fixed Low-Profile Wall Mount for 23" to 46" Displays (Black) (Electronics)

This is a very solid steel mount which easily handles our 40" LCD TV. The packaging is outstanding (really) in that all the hardware you need is enclosed in carefully compartmentalized plastic bags.

After mounting, you can slide the TV left or right a few inches if required. It is also possible to "lock" the TV to the mount but it is a bit of a pain as you need to use a specially designed (included) allan key and the screw is so close to the wall that you can't turn the key through 360 degrees. It also tend to dust your knuckles a bit as you turn it. Finally, it becomes impossible to tilt the TV out enough to change the cables at the back once the lock screw is tightened.

Once mounted, I found the TV to be very close to the wall so if you have component cables with long plugs they may touch the wall when the TV is in place.

When installing mounts like these, pay very close attention to the instructions as you must make sure there is a sound mechanical connection with a stud or cement block. Drywall alone will not work as a mounting surface. Mounting to metal studs is particularly troublesome.

I installed it on cinder block and plaster without difficulty. Thankfully the force applied by the TV is mostly downward rather than outward in the case of a tube TV so you can feel quite comfortable that the thing will stay put as long as you mount it carefully. Use a level.

It is just a pleasure to use such a well designed and carefully thought out product.

This review is from: Peerless SF640 Universal Fixed Low-Profile Wall Mount for 23" to 46" Displays (Black) (Electronics)

Very solid, well manufactured, very secure mounting bracket. I am not a fan of those cantilever arm mounts (use those only out of neccesity). And yes it this is a very low profile mounting bracket. A very smart purchase!

Of particular helpfull installation note, yes it is perhaps a bit more to install, but this will actually hold to plain dry wall (for a relatively small/medium LCD screen) the supplied plastic anchors completely wing out and open providing a secure backing. The giant and I do mean giant tapcon mounting bolts are actually too big to drive into the plastic anchors.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND PRESCREW THEM BEFORE OR THEY WILL JUST SPIN IN THE WALL AND YOU WILL GET NO WHERE, HOLD THE PLASTIC ANCHOR WITH PLIARS AND YOU WILL BE ALL SET.

My studs were way off set for my choice of installation, I was able to grab onto one wood stud on the side, but becuase of the great anchors supplied I have full confidence holding to plain drywall.

Special note, if I did get the articulaing arm mounts (cantilever) I would have be screwed (bad), the small spacing (weight distribution) would NOT have held even my medium LCD panel. I would NOT have trusted those kinds of mounts.
