User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars This one did the trick, Aquos has an odd mount patern
Bought a mount and a new Aquos. the vesa standard mount patterns are 100, 200, 400 mm, ect. this Aquos TV I bought is 440. So, I had to get a universal mount. I works great and is very well constructed, great hardware kit included and ok instructions. I had it up in a matter of minutes. How cool to have the tv on the wall.

5 Stars Best/stongest mount there is!
As a structural engineer I have had to specify TV mounts for health care facilities I have designed in the state of California. Peerless is one of the few manufacturers to have tested mounts for seismic forces and provide pre-approved details (disclaimer: I do not believe they have this certification for this particular mount but generally lighter pieces of equipment do not require it). This gave me confidence in buying from their product line. I know from installing this and the larger version for 52″ flat panel that these mounts support quite a bit of weight, provided you get the lag screws into the center of your wood wall studs. I recommend that after you find the stud (using a stud finder, rare earth magnet, whatever you prefer) you take a small finish nail and poke it through the drywall at several locations to get the exact width extents of the stud. Your mount will cover the small holes and doing so will get you more capacity than ever necessary for an LCD (I hung off my larger one prior to putting the TV on it, 200lbs!!).

This particular mount has a zero-force tilt mechanism, meaning the TV is balanced and will not tilt down by itself when the adjustment levers are loosened. It is easy to tilt the TV up (for somewhat better access to cabling) or down as required. I prefer the mounts with the secure Allen wrench screws, which this model has (the other PT models have regular screws). The kit comes with the necessary tool for these and it is the proper length to reach behind the TV depending on the mount. It is just another level of security as the TV is not coming off the wall without the special tool.

All in all a great mount, very sturdy, and straight forward installation. Well worth the cost when bought at online prices.

5 Stars Good solid product
This is a good solid wall mount. It was easy to install and my TV (32″ Flat LCD) mounted perfectly.

4 Stars Excellent product
Excellent product, easily handles the weight it’s rated for. Comes with plenty of different size bolts to use with almost any application but the package did not have a washer large enough for the screws I used.

1 Star This mount does not fit my 42″ Phillips LCD even though it says that it fits 23″ to 46″ models
I bought this wall mount for my 42″ Phillips LCD TV and 15 minutes later, I decided to find out what hardware came with the mount so I could purchase anything that I might need to buy before the item was delivered. I went to the manufacturer’s website and discovered that this model will not work with my TV: I ned a different model. I immediately contacted Amazon and got the usual customer assistance located in India. they may be able to speak the correct words in English but they sure as hell don’t understand what you’re saying most of the time. They informed me that the item was already being prepared for shipment and that I would have to refuse the package when it arrived from UPS since I could not cancel the order. This makes no sense to me since I called within 20 minutes of placing the order and they had not shipped the item yet. So, I sent an email to Amazon and received a response from someone in India saying the same thing that the man in India had told me. Five days later, the item shipped and it will arrive tomorrow. So now, I have to return the item (at no expense to me) to Amazon and get my credit card credited back because Amazon has this idiotic way of doing things where you can’t cancel the order after you place the order. Yes, I’m not out any money but it’s aggravating, none the less. Moral of the story: Make sure that the wall mount will fit your tv by going to the manufacturer’s site before you buy. DO NOT rely on the description from Amazon because in my case, it was incorrect.
