Product Summary
The Peerless PA740 articulating TV wall mount is a great choice if your TV is VESA compatible and fits either 75x75, 100x100, 200x100 or 200x200. If not you will need to purchase a separate adapter plate which could more than double the overall cost. So check before you order.

This mount is the single stud design which can be both a blessing and a curse depending on your setup. The wall plate requires just two screws to secure it firmly to the wall, but since you must mount it against a stud you are restricted to fixed locations on your wall (most wall studs are spaced at 16" intervals). If you're trying to center the TV in the room you could be stuck. Also note that the center line of the wall plate is not the same as the TV. Be sure to allow for this before you start drilling.

Once installed you'll find this TV wall mount solid with smooth maneuverability in all axis. You can alter the tension to the desired level and there's an optional hand knob to quickly adjust the tilt angle. A roll plate in the back allows a small 2° adjustment to get the TV perfectly level.

It's rated up to a 40" display, but if you want to be able to pull the TV perpendicular to the wall (or beyond) you will need to limit the screen to less than that.

The included cable management consists of some plastic cable ties. Ok for a simple setup, but probably inadequate for more advanced installations.

The Peerless PA740 offers a low cost, quality wall mount that comes with an impressive range of movements for a very competitive price.
