Good Mount but not without Flaws,
I looked around quite a bit for a mount that I wanted. I wanted tilt and I wanted the articulating arms. Since I have a 400 x 200 VESA TV my options were limited. I decided on this one because it had prime shipping and some decent reviews. I should have read the reviews more carefully. (Pros and Cons at the end)
I’m a guy, so when I open up a project I want to figure it out and complete it on my own, then read the instructions. But this time I decided to give the instructions a try first. As another reviewer pointed out, THE INSTRUCTIONS HAVE NO WORDS ON THEM. Step 1 has 3 options you should use depending on your TV’s VESA setup. I picked mine and installed it as pictured. It was frustrating that I couldn’t tell where the top of the TV is on the diagram though. I found out I had set it up upside down so I had to take it off and put it back on. A simple word like TOP or BOTTOM would have been useful in this diagram. (For those of you who get it, the yellow clips go towards the bottom.)
So I got it all attached to my TV and they tell me to bust out a leveler and make sure the bracket your screw into the wall is straight. I proceed to do that and I’m pretty close to dead center and drive those long screws in. Then I put up the articulating arms which were a simple installation. All that’s left is to attach the TV to the mount. I step back knowing I did everything right according to the instructions, feeling good to knock out a project (30 minute installation), and I realize my TV is not straight. But I did everything right, what is going on? So I adjust the tilt screws (to tilt it you must use a 10mm socket or wrench to loosen it, tilt it, then tighten it into position) thinking it might have been something I did wrong. Then I realize there is some play in the bracket. At least a few degrees (in the 85-88 degree vs. the 90 they claim). The fixing project may wait for another weekend, I may add some cushion underneath the area with play (the top of the bracket attached to the TV), or I may just take it apart and set it straight. If they had some words in the instructions both of the pains I experienced would have been avoided.
PROS:
All the parts arrived.
Price.
Short installation.
Strong and durable materials.
Prime shipping!
CONS:
Instructions.
Tilting difficulty (use some type of ratcheting screw instead of the nuts/screws).
The play room which set it off center.
Overall it’s a good and sturdy product. -1 star for the lack of clear instructions, and -1 star for the play room and the tilting. I’d still recommend and purchase this product but keep in mind what other reviewers and I have said. To the manufacturer if you fix these things you’ll have a 5 star product.

|works perfectly,
I mounted a 32″ Vizio over our bath tub, took about 30 minutes from beginning to end. Someone complained in another review that the mounting screws to a Vizio did not work, however, I did not have this issue. The lack of a single word in the instructions is a bit frustrating, so I just pieced it together prior to any screw or bolt tightening.
The arms are just long enough so that I can swing the TV 90 degrees for different viewing angles, and this is exactly what I wanted this product for. To tilt down while in the tub or to swing around while getting ready for an outing.

|Great Product, functions very well,
Mounted my 40″ Samsung in my sunroom and the mount works like a charm! it is very easy to mount although the stud finder is useless. Great product for the price, 4 or 5 stars overall.
