We were having trouble because we wanted our new TV to be as close to the wall as possible so we could mount a two-way mirror over it and not have a gap between the wall and mirror frame.
This 'in wall box' with the companion Sanus swing arm mount made everything work out as hoped.
Contractor that hung it up said it was nice to work with as far as putting into the wall with the way it was constructed.

Just mounted a 52" Samsung LCD TV and am pleased with the mount. Like others, I feel comfortable about its strength. You hate to see a $2000+ TV crash to the floor and I believe if it happens now we have gone through a 8.0 earthquake.

Yes, directions could be a little clearer, a little more text would have helped but I have struggled with much worse. There are extra parts provided for different configurations but they are not clearly identified for that purpose so you tend to wonder where they are supposed to attach.

One problem I had was tightening the cap screw on one of the "vises" until the bar it grips will not move. I therefore tightened slowly, turning the bar to check for movement and found that turning the bar is not what they intended - the cap screw pulled through the plastic (Delrin?) vise. There isn't much lip for the cap screw head to grip so can be stripped fairly easy. If they said tighten until the bar won't slide I would have avoided trouble. Not a tragedy, I simply got a longer cap screw, added a washer and the problem was fixed. The hardware is only 15 minutes away and I always expect one trip on a project.

The 66 lb TV plus sturdy mount requires two people to hang it on the recessed support. A third person to guide the swivel onto the bracket makes the job fast and fairly easy.

The recess allows the set to fit closer to the wall but the bracket assembly still holds it out from the wall a few inches. One reason is that even though the Samsung has a flat back, I still needed to use provided standoffs. There were no bolts of appropriate length to avoid that. Yes, another trip to the hardware might have corrected that but I chose to accept the added 1/2 to 3/4".

I recommend this wall mount.

Once I found the studs in my wall installing this was a breeze.
It has punch-outs for wires and for the installation of an outlet, very cool.
(These punch-outs are at both the top and bottom of the unit.)

After the installation, you know there is no way your TV is going to fall.
The whole wall would have to fail.

A little pricey, but made in the USA and top quality, so I feel it is well worth it.

I paired this with the Sanus Systems LRF118-B1 and a Samsung LNT4671F 46"
Just beautiful.
