5 Stars fit like a glove
have a 52″ bravia – perfect fit, easy adjustments. you do need 2 people though
4 Stars Installation manual could have been better
Solid construction and worked great with my Bravia 52w3000. The price was a bit steep for what it was (maybe that’s for all flat panel mounts) but it fit perfectly. The instruction manual didn’t have the right info for my TV as it was newer, but it was readily available on the Sony website. My beef was that the instruction manual could have been much clearer. it stated that the screws should be 8mm or larger but don’t believe 8mm screws fit the holes in the brackets. Also, the measurement guidelines could have been better although my installation ended up fine.
5 Stars Piece of mind
Heavy duty. Easy to bolt to wall. Made me feel better hanging a 40″ screen with it
5 Stars Sony SUWL500 Wall Mount Bracket
At first I thought this product was too pricey, however, it was well worth the money. I did not have any problem installing the bracket and the t.v. I purchased other brackets before this and when I got it home I ran into problems immediately such as not having the right screws or the bracket was too confusing to install. The installation instructions for this bracket was very easy to understand and I was able to put up my t.v. within a reasonable amount of time without being overwhelmed and I did it by myself.
4 Stars Sony SUWL500 Wall Mount Bracket
We have a Sony 46″ KDL-46Z4100 and decided to use the Sony mount instead of a generic brand sold in most stores. The Sony mount was very easy to install, is black which matches the TV (most generic mounts are a silver color). For those folks needing to, or desiring to tilt their TV, this mount tilts up to 15 degrees if desired.
Once installed the total distance from the wall to the front of the TV is approximately 5 3/8″. If the studs in your wall are sixteen inches on center you should have no problem installing this wall mount. Ours were not and I was emphatic about having the TV centered in the space we selected to install the TV. Our solution was to use fasteners purchased from Home Depot called “WingIts”. The WingIts are rated to 300 lbs each in all directions and may be used in all wall substrates. They are NOT for use in ceilings, walls only. They are expensive but in my opinion worth the price. FYI: The Sony model discussed here is approximately 50 lbs.
Home Depot also sells a special WingIts drill bit which is the precise diameter needed for use with WingIts fasteners. This bit is also expensive at approximately 12.00 to be used as in my case only once or twice. But as the fasteners in my opinion the bit is worth it’s price, after all you installing a $2000.00 TV, what’s another twelve dollars to make the job safe, correct and easy.
The TV was installed two weeks ago and still hanging today so I am very comfortable with our insulation and the use of the WingIts fasteners, they do the job as advertised.
The only negative we found with the Sony wall mount were the instructions. This mount fits many Sony TV’s, from 32 inches to 46″ and there is some variance for mounting the different size TV’s which this mount accommodates. Making it more difficult the KDL-40Z4100 instructions are not in the wall mounts instillation manual which may make deciphering the instructions confusing. The good news is; Sony packages with the KDL-40Z4100 TV, the instructions for mounting the TV and installing the SUWL 500 Wall Mount Bracket.
If the instructions were clear I would have rated this mount five stars.

4 Stars Long screwdriver
They should note that you need an exceptionall long shanked screwdriver to tighten the locking screws.
4 Stars Great Wall Mount
Wall mount works just as advertised. Easy to put up, great fit. It isn’t that easy to tilt once you have the tv mounted, so try and get the tilt that you want before you put the tv up.
4 Stars Good value but several design flaws
I am very mechanically inclined so you can’t fault the installation. Starting out with the good. The frame is heavy duty, comes with detailed installation instructions written by a native english speaker and they have nice and tidy plastic bags labeled with all the key parts. Negatives were the tv part of the unit doesn’t really sit solidly into the wall plate until you tighten down the fastening screws. Even when it was tightened down the ridges aren’t totally aligned almost as if the CAD program had messed up the precision match of the plate to the TV bracket. The other big issue is the unit can not be easily tilted. For me this was a minor point as I have no interest in tilting it around once I set up the perfect tilt. However for some people this is a key feature and I would not buy it if that was key for you. All in a good product but I really had to manipulate the plates to get them to align properly.
5 Stars Best LCD Mount Ever
This is the 3rd LCD Mount that I have purchased. And while they have all been peerless mounts this one is fantastic. It is used to mount my 52″ Samsung LCD and its perfect. The quality of the mount is excellent and the glossy powder coat is pristine.
If you have doubts about buying this mount let me put them all to rest. I would absolutely buy this mount again.
1 Star They did not include the right size bolts
Upon going through the instructions and making sure that the frame would fit to the back of the TV it became apparent rather quickly that the included bolts did not have the width to fit the holes on the back of my new Samsung Regza 42′ TV. I will have to go to the hardware store and attempt to find the right size. This is going to be a pain as it will all be guess work. So between the TV and the Hanging frame I am a bit annoyed.
Peerless PA740 Articulating Wall Mount for 22 to 40 Displays Black
Peerless PA740 Articulating Wall Mount for 22 to 40 Displays Black
It’s easy to get the best viewing options when you can effortlessly pull out the screen from the wall, position it in almost any direction, even turn it around corners and then smoothly return it to the wall when finished. Effortlessly adjust the tilt with just a touch and level the screen at any time, even after installation. With integrated cable management, cords and cables are never in the way – even when extending and retracting the screen. Up to 180-degrees of swivel VESA 75 and 100 compliant UL listed

4 Stars good stuff
the only knock i have on this mount is the tilt feature. it’s kind of a pain to use as the knob broke during install. other than that, it’s a great unit.
5 Stars Solid & well engineered!
My tv mount arrived in perfect condition and on time. It is nice and heavy duty and well made. I would recommend it.
4 Stars Excellent product
First tried to install without putting into a stud, quickly ripped out of the wall. Into a stud, the device was quick to set up! The swivels are sturdy and transition well into new positions. Very satisified so far…
5 Stars More bang for the buck!!
When I first started looking at wall mounts for my 40″ Samsung 1080p lcd the first thing I noticed immediately was how expensive the mounts were. Everywhere from Wal-Mart to Best Buy I was blown away by the inflated price. I normally do not like to purchase this type of item from an online provider, but after seeing this mount at the price it was offered at I could not say no. I was slightly nervous that I might have made a mistake after I hit the “Complete Purchase” key on my PC but luckily I had nothing to worry about. The mount arrived fairly quickly and I must say that this is a superb item. It is incredibly sturdy and has a very refined simple look that adds to its appeal. I had purchased a mount prior to purchasing this one from Wally-wold but felt that its construction was too flimsy. This mount just seems more durable and lessens my fear of having my lcd fall to the floor. It is very easy to attach to the wall and your television is secured better to this mount than most others. I highly recommend this mount to anyone that wants to enjoy their lcd from the comforts of their wall.
5 Stars wall mount
for the price, this wall mount can’t be beat. very sturdy, lots of adjustment and fairly easy to install.

5 Stars Perfect
Theres not much wrong with this thing. I got it for my husbands screen over his mixing board (he makes records, and the screen was very far away and too high over his board causing neck pain). It clipped right on, however, silly thing that I was didn’t check if his existing screen fit this arm. It didn’t. Oh well, had to buy another screen – he got an even bigger one, but it was worth it for his comfort. He loves this thing. It articulates so well. He brings it forward when working in protools, and pushes it back for mixing on the board. It’s great, and he appreciates it.
5 Stars Awesome arm with outstanding quality
I bought this to support a Dell 24″ monitor to my left. I have a 27″ Dell in the center and a 20″ Dell on the right. This is without a doubt a quality piece of engineering.It took (5) minutes to set up and you are ready to go. Even comes with all of the hardware and tools required.
As the previous reviewer said, the arm shipped with two different mounting systems. One, a heavy duty desk-edge clamp, would probably have worked fine, but I opted to use the other one – a 5/16″ bolt passing through a hole drilled in the desktop. Using the bolt allows the screen to be moved to any position without worrying about the clamp coming loose. The heavy duty arm has no problem with the weight. I probably could mount a much larger monitor without a problem! If you are on the fence….I highly recommend this product.
5 Stars Value for the price
I use it for a 23″ flat screen and it works fabulously! I was skeptical at first because it seemed too cheap(compared to similar items I priced), but I’m glad I took the plunge! I’ve had it for over a month (mounted to the side of my desk. Every once in a while I check the knobs to ensure everything is tight (just to be safe)but no problems so far. I needed an arm to ensure the monitor sat in an ergonomic position. It moves in height, rotation and angle. This product exceeds my expectations and the price is phenominal. My only precaution (no fault of the product) check the monitor mount (my 2nd monitor sits on a stand with no mounting area on the back), bummer. There’s likely a way around this, but I’m not the ‘handy’ type. 2 Thumbs Up!
5 Stars Exactly what I needed
The product is as solid as I could have hoped for. The metal components are very heavy and well constructed. The plastic feels solid and reliable. The flexible plastic does not feel like it’s going to break when being bent. The adjustable spring tension meant even my heavy 24″ Dell LCD was supported without any issues.
The spacing for the cables is tight when you have power and video, but they both fit snugly, keeping the desk clear of cable-clutter.
The instructions are easy to follow and come in a large variety of languages. All the necessary components were included, including a plate for larger monitors. The monitor arm was very easy to assemble.
Definitely a recommended purchase – I’ll only buy these monitor arms in the future, and will recommend them to anyone that asks.
5 Stars Great Monitor Arm
Pros: Holds my 24″ Dell 2407WFP with ease. I’ve got it mounted to an Omnirax Commander workstation and there is only minimal screen bounce when I have it fully extended towards me and I start banging pretty [...] the keyboard (more a fault of the desk/workstation, not the arm).
I also love how easy it is to rotate the monitor into portrait. This is a GREAT feature.
I adjusted the tension screw for the weight of my monitor, and was surprised when it actually stayed put. I was really dubious of the arm’s ability to stay where you put it with a 24″ monitor mounted, but it works fantastically.
I will be purchasing more of these for my two other 20″ monitors in the very near future.
Cons: Cable management on the section mounted to the post is pretty much worthless. Once you’ve got a DVI cable or a mildly thick power cable in there, there’s no room for anything else. There’s just barely room for a DVI and power cable on the first section (with no hope for USB in addition to power and DVI). A USB cable seems like the ONLY thing you could really get into the second section. No big deal; just spend a couple bucks on some cable ties.
Also, you might want to think about a 15ft. DVI cable and an extra long power cord if you plan on running your cables along the arm. That’s what I’ve got, and I can’t imagine having anything shorter.
I was also a little worried by the shiny plastic on the sides of the first arm. It’s just a shell (part of the “cable management”), but it makes you worry that the thing will be flimsy when you pull it out of the box (don’t worry –it’s not). The other parts are all nice, solid, matte-finished metal.

5 Stars Heavy Construction / Simple to install
Arrived quickly and performed as described. Heavy soild construction. Holds my large Mitz. HC-5500 with no problem. Would highly reccomend.
3 Stars Good build but pricy for the item.
I bought this “Vantage Point CGUPM12-B Universal Front Projector Mount – Black” for my Mitsubishi HC6500 Projector and the first impression is it a very small item as compared to the price. A simple Project mount could be delivered way cheaper than this. But the good thing is that it’s a good build. Easy to move all direction makes it very convenient for installation and adjustment of the projector to the Media room.
5 Stars Awesome product, very nice.
I bought this for my black Infocus x9 projector. Everything matched up perfectly, the quality is great. It is very adjustable and can be locked in any position. I’m considering ordering another for my other projector. Only problem is the price is a bit steep.
5 Stars Versatile and easy installation
Found the perfect position on the wall for this mount. We have an option of Ceiling or wall mount with this very heavy duty Projector mount. Easy 3 long screws and big enough diameter we have no doubt this will stay put. No vibration with this heavy metal mount. The picture does not show how strong this mount really is. I searched long and hard before finding the perfect mount. Would buy another if I ever needed one. It is the most versatile and comes with an optional length arm. Very thoroughly thought out product.
5 Stars Could not be more pleased…
For starters, in the interest of full discretion, this unit is my only experience with a projector mounting system. That being said, I would highly recommend this mount to anyone, veteran or novice, looking for a projector mount. On to the specifics. This mount is sturdy. I’m lucky enough to live in a loft apartment, with exposed beams (approx. 8″x12″). After installing the 3 long screws for the mounting plate, I gave it the ol’ “wiggle test”. It did not budge. Long story short (maybe a bit late for that) it passed the I’m hanging, all 205 lbs, from this projector mount test. This mount is very adaptable. It can be used as a wall or ceiling mount. The 12″ extension is easily left out of the configuration for close to ceiling mounts. All the hing points are secured with a main hinge bolt, and a locking bolt. I found that the locking bolt when tightened full down will hold the projector in what ever position it is in, but with a little nudging it can be moved ever so slightly to whatever orientation it needs to be in. Once the secondary locking screws are tightened down this thing does not move. It also comes with a number of screws and 2 sets of arms to attach most any projector I could imagine. On the remote chance you have a projector with mounting points that are a completely obscure thread size and count anyone comfortable with hardware could be in and out of Home Depot or Lowe’s in 10 min with the parts needed, less $2 tops. All in all excluding some hyper advanced pneumatic operated, robotic ninja, space monkey navigated, projector mount; I cant see someone really beating this unit in terms of strength, adaptability, and cost.
P.S. To the reviewer that complained that he or she was having to use the screws that hold the projector to the mount, to adjust it, please spend your free time making a friend with the smallest understanding of mechanical know-how, not confusing people with sub-par Amazon reviews.
