Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

So If you look at my pics the first one is of the TV as close to the wall as it gets. In case you can't tell it is only like 4 inches or so away from the wall. This would depend on the size of your TV but it is close and clean. . If you look at the second pic it shows the TV pulled out. I could have pulled it another few inches but this is probably 12" away from the wall. If you need to get back there to hook up other devices or just want your TV closer this is great. By the way the mount is very solid. If you follow the instructions, and logic, you will be mounting into studs and your TV is safe. . Next pic is a behind the scenes view. You can see how easy it is to get back there and how much range of motion the mount has. . Finally is the tilt shot. Depending on the size of your TV you would be able to tilt other TV more or less than in this pic but as you can see on a flat wall this thing turns a TON. This is good for me because as you can see in the reflection of the TV is a door and outside that door is where I usually BBQ...so I can watch TV while BBQ'ing. Oh and there is a kitchen just a little more to the right...so yeah I cook and watch. . I have mounted a few TV's in my life and this mount was as simple as any of them to install and took us probably 20 minutes max with half the time making sure where I wanted it mounted. . I will be buying another one of these for a TV upstairs.
