Summary: Heavy Duty Mount
Comment: I received the mount on the date promised. It was very easy to mount, was high quality material, and provided the ability to tilt the TV which was picking up a reflection from the lighting in the room and the tilt eliminated that. It's very sturdy and provides easy removal of the TV to add cables later. Additionally, the internet price was $50 below my local Circuit City store.

Summary: Is Heavy Duty
Comment: Easy to install and very heavy duty. Kind of wish it would tilt up 5 degrees so the rear input/output panel would be more accessable. Worth the money I paid for it.

Summary: Incredible, best mount ever made.
Comment: After investing so much in a new TV it was important for me to get a wall mount that I trusted with my investment. After limiting my selection down to three it seemed to me that I should buy one that cost a bit more and was rated at a much higher weight limit then my TV simply for the security. After doing much research on this product I found that it was actually tested up to 650lbs. With a 100lb TV I shouldn't have anything to worry about. After taking that chance and once it arrived I realized that the right choice had been made. This was sturdy, strong, and appeared to be well built. After mounting it on my wall it was worth every penny. Telescoping has changed the way I look at wall mounts, and this mount especially made me confident of it's sturdiness. I have no fear and every confidence that I can hang from the telescoping hands (and I'm almost 300lbs) with my 100lb TV without damaging anything.
Mounting the TV to the brackets was incredibly simple. The multiple holes offered up many options for various types of TVs and lined up with my Sharp Aquios 52D64U no problem.
I'm currently considering a second HDTV and will be buying the same mount for it without question. Highly Recommended.

Summary: Ruggedly made, and simple to install
Comment: I used this mount to install a 52" Toshiba LCD.
As advertised, the steel stampings are of very robust, heavy gauge steel.
I'll try and describe how this mount works, as I had many doubts when I ordered this and relied on luck that it would work OK.
The wall mounting rail is held to the wall by 4 lag screws (3-1/2" long I think).
I was a bit lucky in that the horizontal center of the TV was very close to halfway between 2 studs. This allowed easy centering of the mounting rail.
However, even if it was worst case, with a stud coming at the center of the TV, the flexible design would still allow for no-problem mounting.
The mounting holes are long slots, allowing for any range of horizontal positioning.
Install the 1st 2 top lags, level of course. Then, you can easily install the bottom 2 lags. Mounting holes must be pre-drilled.
I wondered about the 5 degree tilt option. The brackets that attach to the TV via 2 bolts each have two slots at the top of each. Depending on which set of slots that you use, you get either straight vertical, or 5 degree tilt. 5 degrees is just about perfect for the TV centerline at 5 ft above the floor, and my recliner at 10 ft from the TV. In reality, other distances and angles are just fine also.
To move to vertical, 2 people can lift the TV up and set it back on the other set of slots. So, easy to change if wanted.
As mentioned, with this TV, the vertical brackets attach to the TV with 2 bolts each (my TV). PDR includes all kinds of mounting hardware, for many TV designs.
The brackets have several ¼" holes, spaced ½" apart at their bottom part, and slotted holes at the top. This allows for fine adjustment of vertical positioning when attached to the TV, even after the mounting rail is attached to the wall.
Attach all of your connections before hanging the TV on the wall. You cannot get to them after.
After the TV is hung on the rail, it can be slid side-to-side for the full length of the rail, so that the TV can be exactly centered horizontally.
It takes 2 people to hang the TV on the mounting rail (my TV weighs ~100 lbs). Don't try it by yourself at this point. You might be very disappointed.
The locking rail prevents the TV from being lifted off of the wall, and can be padlocked.
This also prevents any inadvertent lifting of the TV off of the mount.
Overall, I found this mount very easy to install, and highly recommend it.
