 Amazing Jan 30, 2006
By Steff
"tech freak"
This wall mount amazed me with the hardware included. Every screw that could be used with a TV out there was included. It was simple to install and does the job, why pay a lot more for a similar unit. It doesn't let you tilt the TV, but if you just look for a mount that allows you to hang your TV flat on the wall, this is the unit to buy. I used it for a 32" LCD flat panel.

Outstanding product -- the manufacturer has thought it out carefully Jan 30, 2007
By Mark Bookworth
"MB"
This is a very solid steel mount which easily handles our 40" LCD TV. The packaging is outstanding (really) in that all the hardware you need is enclosed in carefully compartmentalized plastic bags.
After mounting, you can slide the TV left or right a few inches if required. It is also possible to "lock" the TV to the mount but it is a bit of a pain as you need to use a specially designed (included) allan key and the screw is so close to the wall that you can't turn the key through 360 degrees. It also tend to dust your knuckles a bit as you turn it. Finally, it becomes impossible to tilt the TV out enough to change the cables at the back once the lock screw is tightened.
Once mounted, I found the TV to be very close to the wall so if you have component cables with long plugs they may touch the wall when the TV is in place.
When installing mounts like these, pay very close attention to the instructions as you must make sure there is a sound mechanical connection with a stud or cement block. Drywall alone will not work as a mounting surface. Mounting to metal studs is particularly troublesome.
I installed it on cinder block and plaster without difficulty. Thankfully the force applied by the TV is mostly downward rather than outward in the case of a tube TV so you can feel quite comfortable that the thing will stay put as long as you mount it carefully. Use a level.
It is just a pleasure to use such a well designed and carefully thought out product.

Solid piece of hardware Nov 17, 2006
By AS
Very solid, well manufactured, very secure mounting bracket. I am not a fan of those cantilever arm mounts (use those only out of neccesity). And yes it this is a very low profile mounting bracket. A very smart purchase!
Of particular helpfull installation note, yes it is perhaps a bit more to install, but this will actually hold to plain dry wall (for a relatively small/medium LCD screen) the supplied plastic anchors completely wing out and open providing a secure backing. The giant and I do mean giant tapcon mounting bolts are actually too big to drive into the plastic anchors.
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND PRESCREW THEM BEFORE OR THEY WILL JUST SPIN IN THE WALL AND YOU WILL GET NO WHERE, HOLD THE PLASTIC ANCHOR WITH PLIARS AND YOU WILL BE ALL SET.
My studs were way off set for my choice of installation, I was able to grab onto one wood stud on the side, but becuase of the great anchors supplied I have full confidence holding to plain drywall.
Special note, if I did get the articulaing arm mounts (cantilever) I would have be screwed (bad), the small spacing (weight distribution) would NOT have held even my medium LCD panel. I would NOT have trusted those kinds of mounts.

 Does NOT fit MOST 42" or larger TVs!!! Nov 28, 2007
By Socalraverboy
I was searching for a mount for my new 42" plasma TV, and found this on Amazon. Fortunately, I read the reviews and saw several complaints that this mount didn't fit certain TVs. I then went to the manufacturer's site, peerlessindustries.com, and looked up this model. Right on their product page for this item, the manufacturer warns that this model will NOT fit most TVs 42" and higher. So, unless you want to take a chance, don't get this if your TV is 42" or more. They really shouldn't sell a product named as a universal wall mount for 22"-49" TVs, then have a disclaimer on their site that it won't fit many 42"+ TVs!!! UPDATED 8/23/08- the disclaimer appears to be no longer on their site but I do not know if the product has actually been changed. If you search online you will find many complaints that the mount doesn't fit many 42"+ TVs, so be warned to be carefully when considering this.

Too Small for Vizio 37 Inch LCD Jul 02, 2007
By David Hall
This mount is way too small for many LCDs and Plasmas. It very well may not fit your TV. I thought there was no chance it would happen to me but now I'm stuck having to return it and get the larger 650 model. If you're in doubt order the larger version the first time. Learn from mine (and others) mistakes! It is NOT universal.
