Customer Review: Excellent value in a basic flat screen wall mount
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this for a friend to help mount his VIZIO 32-inch plasma HDTV on the wall. The mount came with an extensive set of mounting hardware for compatibility with multiple brands and models of flat screen TVs, and sure enough, one set was a perfect fit for the VIZIO VP322's metric mounting holes.
It's pretty basic - two parts mount to the back of the TV, one piece attaches to the wall. Hook the TV brackets onto the wall mount, tighten a couple of screws to lock it in place and you're done. The securing screws that fasten the TV bracket to the wall plate are a little hard to reach, but Peerless thoughtfully includes a long Allen screw driver which makes this pretty painless.
By the way, for those concerned about whether or nor this will fit your TV, the SF640 mount supports TVs with "mounting patterns" up to 17.73" wide and 12.94" high. This means that the mounting bolt holes in the back of your television can be no more than 17.73 inches apart (width) and no more than 12.94 inches apart (height). If your TV's mounting pattern is larger than this in either dimension then this is not the mount for you. The load capacity of the mount is up to 150 pounds so this should accommodate most flat panel TVs 46 inches or below (assuming the mounting pattern fits your TV and you mount it properly).
There is no tilt capability, but for the price this really can't be expected. All in all, a great value (with a 5-year warranty) and a high quality product.
Customer Review: Not fancy, but does the job...
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this simple mount to put a Magnavox 37MF 321 D , 37-inch LCD TV on the wall, or more accurately, on my new "entertainment center" that I built into a standard 4-inch sheet-rocked wall.My new entertainment center only requires two inches of living room space, replacing a CRT TV and entertainment center that required over 26 inches of valuable living room real estate! This made a BIG difference in our 16X18 living room. While there are a few design features that could probably be improved on, overall it proved up to the task. It mounts the TV nice and flat, and there seems to be plenty of lateral adjustment to get the screen level and straight. I did have to shorten a few bolts with a hacksaw; if making a few minor alterations such as this is beyond your capabilities, you probably shouldn't be doing this job yourself anyway. If possible get a friend to help hold the TV, especially when making your cable connections to the TV just before hanging it. I actually managed this by myself, but a helper would have been very useful.
If you are looking for a fancy, tilt and swivel mount with lots of features(which will also stick out further from the wall), look elsewhere. If you just need a simple mount to hang your TV flat on the wall, this is just the thing.Overall, an inexpensive mount that does the job.
Customer Review: Solid piece of hardware
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
Customer Review: good quality - adjustable side to side
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this mount after trying 2 different ones purchased at big box stores. I needed to center my LCD between the bathroom and closet door in my bedroom. Most of the other mounts I found only anchored to a single stud & had limited ability to adjust side to side. I found this surprising, because even in a large room, your eye can easily tell if a TV is not centered. If you're only choice is to mount to studs on 16" centers, how is that supposed to work? In my case, none of the studs was even close to the center point between the doors. This mount anchors to two studs & has several inches of side to side adjustment. It is very solid & comes with a good assortment of hardware for the different VESA mounts (mine was 200mm x 200mm). Tightening the set screws was a little tedious as another reviewer mentioned, but it's a one time thing so not a reason to avoid this product. This does not pivot or tilt, but I wanted a flush mount anyway. I would recommend buying one of the recessed outlet plates that has a 120V outlet & an opening to pull your cables through for a clean installation. Haven't done that myself yet, but I plan to.Customer Review: Quick, easy, adjustable, well made...just right

Got this to mount my new 32" Samsung. What can I say? I had it up in about 15 minutes. The longest part of the install was finding and marking the studs in the wall and making sure that it was level. The TV just hooks right on. It literally took me and my wife all of 30 seconds to mount the TV once the brackets had been installed. No fumbling with wrenches behind the TV! That's a first. I love that you can reposition the TV horizontally. Would be nice if you could adjust the vertical tilt as well. Makes it simple to center the screen somewhere where the studs are not centered. This also came in handy when I was installing the soundbar under it since just a little nudge on the LCD and everything was aligned perfectly. Seems very solid. Hardware packaging and instructions are all superb. I am completely happy with this product. It made my life easier.
