We had our flat panel screen on a stand for several months, but finally decided to put it on the wall. It's wonderful. The mount is easy to use and allows for adjustment once the mount and TV have been put up. The price and the product are both great! Thanks!

I bought this wall mount for my 50" Panasonic TH50PX60U. It works fine, but there are some things to note:
- The brackets that bolt to the wall slide, allowing you to screw into studs either 12" or 16" apart, depending on how/when your house was built. This is a nice feature, but it means that you must mount the TV between two studs. If you mount above a fireplace and want the TV to be perfectly centered, then you must have two studs that will work. In my case I have 1 stud in the smack-center of the fireplace and then two on either side 16" apart. I was lucky enough to have one horizontal bar between the two outter studs, so I did not have any issue. However, if you do not have a horizonal stud, then you will need to mount the TV either off-center or mount the bracket off-center and just hope the TV will be ok hooked-up on the side of the braces. "Hoping" it holds is not something most people that spend $2000+ are interested in.

I dont know why they cant just make a mount that has like 1000 holes and you can pick where you want to bolt the damn thing into the wall. The problem with these universal mounts is that universal never seems to be universal!

Anyway, so sum-up...If you mount the TV between two studs, this is a great mount. Nice tilt, sturdy and locks the TV in place so you cant just pull it off the wall. If you are looking to mount above your fireplace make sure your stud configuration works.
