5 Stars Low profile LCD TV mount of high quality & easy to install
Indeed, a low profile LCD TV mount of high quality and easy to install. Mount came with a wide variety of screws, washers and spacers to accommodate several different attachment situations. One might need a right angle coax cable coupler because the TV is just 1.5″ from the wall.

The mount’s frame was just wide enough for my 42″ Panasonic. Check ahead if the mount would accommodate a larger set’s mounting holes.

5 Stars Great product, Great Price
Got this for about $60 with free 2-day shipping (Prime Member) and couldn’t be happier. Hung my 50″ Panny and had no problems. Comes with all the hardware you’ll need to mount your Plasma/LCD tv. (Note: Make sure you mount the bracket into your wall studs! Use a stud finder <$20 at Lowe's/HD) Cheapest I found anything comparable was ~119.00, so this was a steal! Highly recommend for 50" or smaller.

4 Stars Great Product
This television mount is a great buy. It’s durable and the price just can’t be beat. The only downside was that the display didn’t include parts for mounting to steel beams. Other than that, everything was great.

5 Stars Easy to install, works great
I mounted a 37″ Magnavox TV with this. Because of some work I needed to do for wiring, etc, the TV has been on and off the mount at least 10 times, and the actual mount has been removed from the wall 4 times (repositioned twice, and then down for painting twice). Installation was trivial; I didn’t have the issues that a previous poster mentioned regarding quality of the bolts.

I should note that since this is a low-profile mount getting cable attached to your TV can be interesting.. I finally figured out that the easiest way (for me, at least) was to set a card table in front of the mount, put the TV face-down on the cable, with the bottom side facing the wall. Then cable it up, and carefully lift the TV up onto the mount. I was able to make this method work with 1ft HDMI and power cables.

5 Stars mount review
I purchased this to mount my 46 inch Sony Bravia TV to a wall in my newly finished basement. Installation was very easy, just put a few screws in, draw a few lines on the wall, and hang it up. the only problem i had was with the wires because my TV had a recessed panel so it was hard to get the wires in the right spot. Taking it off is a snap. and i got it for $55! Excellent Product for an excellent deal!

5 Stars Great No Frills Mount
I picked up this mount for a 32″ Insignia LCD HDTV. As stated in my review it is a no frills mount. If you are looking for tilt or mobility look elsewhere. The mount is easy to install and took about 30 minutes from opening the box to finished install. This mount places the TV very close to the wall. I would suggest installing recessed receptacles to aid in fitting. I am very happy that I didn’t purchase a $100+ mount from a store, this one has been perfect!

4 Stars (More than) Does the job!
Very sturdy. Made in U.S.A. Easily holds up our 32″ LG and I suspect it could support a much larger and/or heavier screen.

The only con I can think of is I wish they supplied the hex key without a right angle (i.e., just a long hex bar that could be rotated through the fingers), because it’s impossible to simply keep turning it. In other words, there’s not enough clearance next to the wall. And because it’s such a long screw and it’s so dark up there, it can take some time to keep finding the screw head each turn.

Also, recently I upgraded my DVD player to an HDMI-compatible one, and it was necessary to take the TV off the mount to plug in the cable. There was no way to access this while it was still mounted. Perhaps this would be an issue with other mounts as well.

Otherwise (and indeed, in spite of this), I would have no hesitation buying this again for another set.

2 Stars Wrong wall mount.
This wall mount was recommended when I bought my 32″ flat screen television… I figured I could not go wrong, especially since this is Amazon I was dealing with. Very few if any problems with anything in the past.So I just bought it with the t.v. Turns out that this is not the right mount for the t.v. and I would have to shop around to find the right one. I spent two days trying to find the right mount and failed miserably. Finally I took my drill and some bolts from the local hardware store and “made the mount work”. I really don’t know what could be done otherwise except for sending the mount back to Amazon… but I would have still had the problem of how to hang the television on the wall. The prices for the right mount are unbelievably high and the wait would have been too long to get it. There was an issue of where to store the t.v. until I got the mount. This t.v. was being used in a public building. Timing was also an issue. I feel I was put in a bad situation… (Not typical for Amazon)…but none the less, a problem that should have never happened. I recommend better research before suggesting one product to be used in conjunction with another. As a buyer, I wlll be more cautious in the future…lesson learned.

5 Stars Amazingly easy, Great Price!
Used this for a 32″ Sharp Aquos and was really impressed with how easy the installation was. The price can’t be beat either. It fits really close to the wall, which is nice.
