I love this wall mount!!,
I bought a 50″ Plasma and decided it would be best on my wall. I went looking through stores and found higher prices than this one and bulkier designs.
I love the articulating arms!! I can pull it away from the wall to access the wires, etc. and adjust the left to right tilt for best viewing. It seems very sturdy and has worked great for me the last six months.
It was easy enough to mount to the wall but if you are not good with tools seek experienced assistance. You will need someone to hold it up for you unless you are good at this sort of thing. The hardest part was hanging the TV and that was only due to the weight of it.
Note: Make sure you have wall studs with 16″ centers if mounting to drywall!! I bought it not realizing I had 24″ centers on that one wall. This caused me to mount it to a steel plate so it could get anchored to the studs (The 50″ TV weighed 125lbs!!)

|I will support Cheetah Mounts FOREVER!!,
Load testing it (215 lbs!) – http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41XPpjMLOPL.jpg
WOW. I bought a cheetah mount that only tilts for my 52″ SAMSUNG LCD TV. But the configuration of my living room/kitchen area had me thinking I’d rather go with an articulating wall mount, so I can turn it if I’m cooking or if I have people over on the sectional sofa I can turn it that (the opposite) way. So I bought this puppy (I kept the other tilting-only mount for my bedroom LCD TV which I haven’t purchased yet). After taxes and S&H, it came out to $106. A similar product at BestBuy and hhgregg costs well over $300 (bestbuy has some that articulate and tilt that are up to $750!!!)
I’m a civil engineer, I work on designing things as a career. When I opened the box and saw the structural bulk of this thing, I was very impressed. I knew my brand new TV would be secure hanging from this thing. It came with a BUNCH of extra hardware in case you needed to use it (I ended up using the screws they supplied for the connection to the TV, since mine were too short). I also used their spacers to help ensure full thread engagement.
I wanted to install the TV on the wall and run the cables through the wall, so I had a lot of work cut out for me. Also, I live on a first floor condo unit, so my studs were in groups of 3 and only 12″ apart. So I had to cut a whole in the drywall and add another adjacent stud to it. The lag screws they supplied are more than efficient. Just be sure to have the right sized screwdriver head to avoid stripping the heads.
Once I got the TV up I load tested it. I brought it out about 3/4 the total extension distance and first pulled down on it a bit. Then I slowly transferred all my weight to the mount. I heard a little bit of stress in the wood, but after all 215lbs of me was hanging from it, I knew that my 66 lb tv would be just fine. It’s only upon writing this review that I see it’s rated for 180 lbs. so it’s a good thing that I didn’t see that before load-testing it. even though, being an engineer and all) I know things are derated all the time. The instructions were a little fuzzy, but it’s still pretty easy to not screw up.
Feel free to ask me any questions about the TV or the wall mount, i’d be glad to answer.

|Stout Wall Mount,
Bought this mount for a Samsung LN46A750 46-Inch 1080p DLNA LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color also purchased at Amazon.
I was impressed with the sheer weight of this mount as it weighs nearly as much as the TV I mounted to it. It left me with the impression it could hold what it claims (165 lbs.). I weigh around 260 lbs. and leaned heavily on the empty mount after I put it on the wall (before attaching TV) and it didn’t budge.
Its appearance is somewhat stylish for what it is. I have it tilted out fairly well so there is quite a bit showing to any who enter the room, yet it blends w/ the back of the TV and looks professional.
The instructions were a bit flaky, but it got the point across as I was able to mount it and this was the first time I have installed a wall mount. Although, I do consider myself fairly intelligent and do DIY stuff all the time so I’m not new to such things.
The range of movement is awesome…this thing will move any which way you try and with a fair amount of ease. I didn’t mess with any “settings” as the instructions didn’t say much about any of the levers on it. It did what I wanted by default.
Altogether a good buy and I recommend this mount to anyone.
