Product Summary

The VideoSecu MW370B is a dual arm articulating wall mount that supports most displays up to 55" and 165lbs. We say most as there are a few TV brands that do not fit (mostly Pioneer and Sharp). For everyone else, if your TV's mount holes are anywhere up to 680mm(27") horizontally and 460mm (18") vertically you should be good to go. If in doubt check with the manufacturer before you order.

The mount has a low profile of 4" and can extend a full 26" from the wall. The motion is smooth and solid without any noticeable slack or 'droop'. Depending on the width of the TV you can get about 140 degrees of left/right swivel and there is +/-15 degrees of tilt. For heavier TVs the tilt mechanism has a tendency to slip under the weight. A few locking washers from the local hardware store can help tighten things up and keep everything in place.

Installation is straightforward, but as always, check the wall before starting. Unless you plan on installing into cinder block or brick, this mount requires stud spacing of no more than 16" on center. If your studs are wider than this you will need to install some cross supports. You can determine stud spacing with a stud finder available at most hardware stores.

The front plate (directly behind the TV) is a generous 28" wide and offers a reasonable amount of lateral adjustment so as you can center the TV on the wall in the event the studs are off center. Basically the TV hangs on the front plate via two vertical brackets that bolt to the back of the TV. If you find that the TV is not quite level you can make small adjustments by carefully re-positioning these brackets. Even if you use the same holes, there is about 0.125" of play when tightening the bolts.

When the mount is collapsed against the wall, the dual arms fold outward to a span of over 28". For some smaller TVs this may be wide enough for the mount to be visible from the front. Check the width of your TV if unsure.

The VideoSecu MW370B is a cost effective TV wall mount constructed of high grade steel making for a robust platform. You get a large mix of mounting hardware and even a free 7ft HDMI cable. Competitively priced it represents a good deal.
