5 Stars TILT SWING ARM WALL MOUNT FOR LCD/PLASMA TV & COMP.MONITOR
EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED TO MOUNT A 20″ COMP. FLAT PANEL MONITOR IN MY RV.

DOUBLE SWING ARM AND TILT LETS YOU MOVE IT WHERE YOU NEED WHETHER IT’S TO WORK WITH OR TO SWING IT OUT OF THE WAY FOR STORAGE.

AND THE PRICE CAN’T BE BEAT ANYWHERE.

4 Stars Works well, but doesn’t fit all TVs
The swing arm is sturdy. It fits many standard screw patterns. It has worked flawlessly since I installed it. The plastic cover that goes over the metal was a pain and required some modifications to get it to work in my situation, but worked and looks nice.

Installing the swing arm into the wall turned out to be an adventure. There were no studs behind the wall where I wanted to mount it, and the screw mounts sent with the unit just pulled out once a little weight was applied. You can solve this two ways – use a bit of plywood that can be attached to wall studs, or use some large drywall screws that are used to hang plants and such. I used the drywall screws as I didn’t want to try and hide a hunk of plywood. I had to drill 3 good sized holes, but they are hidden behind the swingarm wall mount. It turned out sturdy and secure.

The one other issue I ran into was I ended up replacing the orginal TV I bought with the swingarm. The new TV advertised they were mounting VESA compliant and yes, the screws did match up – But the TV mount bracket covered up the cable TV connection. Out came the drill and a metal bit, and a few minutes later They cable ran right through the mounting bracket just fine. The lesson here is just because the screws line up (VESA Compliant) does NOT mean the TV will be easy to mount.

When you buy a flat screen to be mounted, look to be sure the cable connection and other important connectors are point down, to the side, or up – but NOT straight back.

The addition of a swingarm TV to the front office was a nice touch – much appreciated by my wife. This hardware gets a recommend – with caution on the mating of the right TV.

4 Stars GOOD QUALITY!
I have no room on my kitchen counter for a tv, so I looked into wall mounting, and this one gave me alot of options. I love it!
