5.0 out of 5 stars
Worked well, installed easy, January 20, 2009
This review is from: CHEETAH MOUNTS PROFESSIONAL DUAL CROSSBAR APTMP2B FITS SAME TVS AS PEERLESS SANUS OMNIMOUNT PLASMA LCD TV TILT WALL MOUNT BRACKET FOR 32-60" DISPLAYS BLACK
Came as promised. Built in level which is nice. Mounted quickly and securely. My only disappointment is that is it sold by Cheetah Mounts which has a good name for itself but the mount does not have anything on it to identify it as from them. Looks like anyone else's mount (it's made in china so it probably is). Amazon's price was cheaper than anywhere else I found. Their tech support answered quickly and was very friendly. All hardware included. Very nice mount, it's holding my new SONY 46" Bravia XBR.

Great FP Mount, Bad Packaging, September 1, 2010
This review is from: CHEETAH MOUNTS PROFESSIONAL DUAL CROSSBAR APTMP2B FITS SAME TVS AS PEERLESS SANUS OMNIMOUNT PLASMA LCD TV TILT WALL MOUNT BRACKET FOR 32-60" DISPLAYS BLACK
This is a great flat panel mount.
The good,
Features include (Brushed Silver) Heavy steel brackets (1/8" thick) and Steel tubes (a.k.a. rails). Tilt features up and down movement (around 2 inches up or down). Left to right panel movement (around 8 inches or so).
Black anodized steel mounting plate with Stud mounting holes (Two rows) approx 6" 12" 22" 26" using 1" slots.
All the needed hardware and instructions are included.
The build quality is excellent and you can disassemble the whole unit, if you decide to store it, sell it. ship it. (U get the idea)
The Bad,
The tilt feature isn't a whole lot, 2 or so inches up & down is not much to play with.
The stud holes on the mounting plate are great for older houses with building codes that use 12" stud placement,
But... The newer building code uses 18" between studs, So If your studs don't fit this criteria then your gonna have to drill new holes, or this may not be for you.
The hardware is adequate for the job but no washers, I recommend longer screws for the studs though (1 1/2 #6 wood screws) Oh and washers too (about 8 should do it).
The Instructions very little of it could be better.
The Ugly, (Hmmm, never-mind)
This revue should be for 4 1/2 stars simply for the bad job the manufacturer did with the packaging. When I received the mount there was very little packing materiel inside the box, so the contents shifted around during transit (UPS).
This led to the side brackets being bent inwards, still usable but they were bent in about 1/2" on both sides.
Not being one to return it and reship it again (My 32" Flat Panel was getting restless, or was it just me) I decided to rebend the brackets back to thier original shape. (Lock pliers, Vice grip or clamps, Level, Small bits of cloth to protect the metal surfaces)
Luckily the whole bracket comes apart nicely, (Just twist off the caps on the ends of the round tubes) So I was able to bend the metal plates back to normal without having the tubes in the way.
Concussion,
Why go through the trouble fixing this rather then returning it. Well if you have the proper tools it's not that hard, this is probably only a one shoot deal because most of you should receive this without ANY packaging problems anyway.
This is a very solid & well made bracket, it looks great (though you'll never see it behind you TV), it's more then enough to hold up a 50" Flat Panel.
It's well worth the money, this would cost over $100 at any retail store (I've checked) do yourself a favor order this online and save yourself 75.00 bucks.
