I needed a Wall Mount for my 32" Sharp AQUOS. After a little research, I found that
this flat screen TV had an unusual Bolt/Mount pattern (400x400). I Chose the VideoSecu long arm LCD wall mount bracket with removable mount adaptor plate (black) ML520BE. I found out later that the info from the internet abouta 400x400 bolt pattern was incorrect. It is actually a 200 x 200 pattern. Either way, the installation was very easy. This brackett is recommended for a max weight of 60lbs. It actually supports my entire weight of 175lbs. With a small bit of help from my daughter, I was able to attach the TV. This mount is great, you can adjust it (your TV) to anyposition you desire. I will be purchasing 2 more. 1 for my daughters room (27" Flatscreen) and 1 for our family room (42" Flatscreen). I highly recommend this to everyone.
Thanks For Reading... Dave

This unit is well made and seems sturdy for TVs up to 42". I'm not sure I would go much larger or heavier with this single arm/single stud mount. The variety of holes provides an opportunity to secure many different TV models.

Note that this unit does not come with a selection of hardware (ie bolts) to secure it to your TV, nor does it come with any spacers or standoffs to mount the TV to the mounting plate, which would be required in some cases. I'm giving this mount only 3 stars because you invariably will need to track down extra hardware, and the MFG website is basically non existent. The manufacturer could provide PDF templates online, installation videos, known incompatible TV models etc to help consumers decide if the mount is for them and if it would even fit their TV before purchase.

Unfortunately this unit is not compatible with Panasonic TC-P42 and perhaps other similar Panasonic models (smaller and larger). The problem is that this mount completely obscures the power input jack on the TV. There was no possibility to modify it to work without severely compromising the integrity of one of the mounting ears or using long standoffs which I did not feel would be secure, so I had to return the unit. Before purchasing this unit, be sure your power input jack or other jacks are nowhere near the center of the TV or anywhere in between the mounting holes for that matter - because this unit obscures nearly everything between the TV mounting holes.

We purchased this mounting bracket for a new 32" Coby TV we bought with a 400x200 Vesa mount style in the back. For us, according to the write-up, this met all our needs. While the mount itself is really sturdy and we are loving it, yes, it's working great, the directions that came with it may not fit your needs. Following the directions left us with a mount that either didn't fit the holes or it was covering all the connection areas so we couldn't plug in the wires! We finally threw the directions aside after two hours of frustration and started from scratch. Thankfully I am good at puzzles! An hour later we had our tv up and positioned any way we wanted it. So the product is awesome, the installation to the wall was easy, the directions sucked and didn't not work for our tv even though the picture given said it would. We had to make up our own configuration, you may have to do the same but it all depends on the tv so be ready.

NOTE: Ensure you get the correct mount to match the vesa style of your tv but it must also meet the mount configuration needed to secure to your wall studs.

First the good:
It mounts securely to the wall and is discrete. It also looks quite nice and gives the TV a lot of mobility . Overall I like the product a lot.

However, the bracket holes did not match up with my Sony Bravia 46". I had to put on the extensions but it still did not fit in the holes provided. So I had to drill 2 new holes and expand one already made hole.

But this was ok, since this thing is made out of sturdy steel and it doesn't compromise the integrity of the unit at all. It just made a bit more work for me to get it all to fit properly. Now it's mounted and looks great! And for the price it's a great deal.

I installed the VideoSecu long arm bracket and hung a 46" Samsung TV on it. The Bracket-to-wall was easy enough even with their instructions. I had to figure out removing the hinge pin for the adaptor plate so I could install the plate to the TV. There was no mention of this step in the instrustion sheet. Also, I had to purchace the 4 bolts to mount the TV to the adaptor plate. The bolts did not come with the TV. Holding the TV steady while my wife set the hinge pin to secure the TV to the wall bracket was a little tedious operation. The finished product is all hidden by the TV. The TV is secure. I can change the horizontal viewing angle when necessary with just a push of the screen. To change the vertical angle you need a 1/2" open end wrench. I suggest you do that before installing the TV to the wall or have someone there to help support the TV when you loosen the nut.
This is the 2nd mount I've purchaced. The other one was a smaller brachet for a 26" TV I used in my kitchen. That one had a drop-in adaptor plate that was easier to put together.

It's heavy duty well made, but one pain in the rear to figure out.
It took me three tries before I was able to properly mount the TV and attach the cable hookups.
Thanks God for my Son's patience. The instructions suck.

Using this mount for a 42" plasma it was easy to install and is working great.

The product is great and a really good value compared to similar products that I checked out at local retailers. I ended up at Amazon after a recommendation from a relative.

Mount seems adequate for lighter model tv's. Holes in backing plate will not line up on my Samsung. Had to make minor modifications.

This mount is very easy to hang with two people and it works very well it is a heavy duty mount and I have no regret in purchasing this product. Everything I have ordered so far has been high quality, very reasonable on the price and it ships pretty quickly as well. This is my favorite purchasing.
