The bracket itself is very solid and moves easily. Would have given it five stars, but the metal on the stud screws is very soft and started to become stripped under any kind of force.
Tried to use this to mount a 54 lb 65" tv (well within the specified tolerances for this mount) but it did not inspire confidence. The mount would not hold the the TV at a 0 degree tilt no matter how tight the mounting hardware was, and eventually I tried tightening the bolts so far that they stripped. Additionally, the arms seemed flimsy when extended out from the wall for this large of a TV. I'd have no problem using this for a smaller size and lighter TV though as it would provide good adjustability.
Great stand! Easy tilt adjustment. Sturdy design that’s very easy to install. You can angle the TV for optimal viewing and for access to back of TV for cabling.
I did not feel comfortable witt my 83 pound samsung plasma tv on it, even though it is rated for 99 pounds. The arm & back bracket were bowed a bit resulting in constant tilt even when I had it set up for no tilt. I will use it on another smaller tv and go back to my original monoprice bracket for this tv, which has worked well for years. I was trying to gain easier access to the tv connections and this bracket would do the job.
