I was skeptical of this mount. Why should this be so cheap compared to other mounting kits? I ordered one (due to the price), and prepared to return it if I did not think the mount could handle the weight of the 52" LCD TV (Samsung).
Once I got it, I understood the cost. Good low-cost design and built with solid heavy duty steel.
- Two horizontal bars are load-bearing, and for proper VESA spacing, they have to be parallel and relative distance must be in the right tolerances. These are made of solid steel.
- Two vertical bars (in the wall mount) are flimsey, and that's ok. it should be solid enough make a rectangle box w/ square angles. That's it.
- Two vertical mounting (to the TV) brackets are of heavy duty metal. Making this in to two parts (not one), reduction of material, but also allows free horizontal adjustment on the TV mount.
- By doing the above, the kit is small, uses less metal (and reduce shipping and material waste).
Positives
---------
1. Good solid and heavy duty construction.
2. Good value (low-cost). Paid less than $ 25 including shipping.
3. Easy install. Took 15 min to figure out the instruction (which is not totally clear), and 10~15 min to install and ready to watch.
4. built-in level worked well during marking of mouting holes on the wall --I tested w/ my own, and was consistent.
5. Once the mounted on the wall, and bracket on TV, you could adjust horizontal TV placement on the mount, just by sliding few inches left or right, post install. I expect this to be safe and true if the wall mount is directly screwed into the wall studs. I do not expect dry-wall install without the use of the studs to handle such adjustment.
6. The brackets on TV could also be used to adjust vertical TV placement by a few inches up and down. But for this one, you'll need to lift TV off the bracket and adjust and pull back :-).
7. There is a reasonable space (I would say, just right) from the wall to the TV to get cables/connectors through WITHOUT using any expensive 90 degree connectors. Plenty of space between two horizontal bars to put extra power outlet and data HDMI cable outlet to hide all the cables.
8. This supports tilt up/down, and works well. Amazon product description does not make it clear.
Negatives
---------
1. Just one. Clearer instruction so that I do not need to spend 15 min figuring things out. One could learn a lot form IKEA :-).
2. Packing/Packaging -- Not necessarily Cheetah Mount issue -- mine came w/o missing parts, although I noticed torn cardboard box edges and some parts COULD have been lost during shipping. Either double box, or have Cheetah use heavier box stock.
Helpful Hints & Comments
-------------------------
1. DO NOT forget to tighten the screws (2) on the bottom horizontal bars AFTER TV is placed on the wall mount -- especially if you are in CA w/ quake. This is what prevents TV falling off the mount accidentally. But do not over-tighten (you are NOT securing from left-to-right movement).
2. Very happy w/ my purchase. Will get one more for my other TV.

2nd purchase - *UPDATE*
This writing is for another purchase for my mom. I bought a 24" Cheetah mount for my Mom's 55" LG 4K TV. The later 2 photos is of this finished install I done this week. I had a code for a discount that SPN was very kind to give me I had saved from very early this year as I was already planning to buy another one of these for mom for a new TV I was getting her this month on our once a year trip to Ohio to visit family. When I tried to use the code it failed to work because of the passed time. I wrote SPN and Miss Eleonore was so kind to refund me the difference immediately after purchase. These folks are the best!!! If you need a mount, and want the best, reliable and double articulating giving plenty of room to move set out to access whatever, and have the best customer service out there - THIS IS THE MOUNT TO BUY HANDS DOWN! GOD BLESS YOU FOLKS AT SPN!I purchased this 24" mount as to insure no issues with wall studs and was super glad I did. Although I could have checked with my stud finder before purchase, I actually liked the wider mount anyhow and the extra versatility of mounting it provides. I noticed when I received it that it was built very sturdy and weighed very heavily. I put the mount up early as to have it done when I purchased my 65" television to put on it which was delivered yesterday. I decided to put in a couple of extra screws into the wood on the top side of mount as this gets all the pull from the weight. When I pulled it out to put in the extra screws I made an extremely scary discovery. On the top right as your looking at the mount mounted on the wall, the screw and metal corner bracket was missing from the mount. First thought was I am super glad I caught this issue since if I were to hang the tv on the mount and not caught this problem, my tv could have fell off of it and hit the floor! For that top rail not to be supported like that is needless to say a HUGE mistake in building the mount. Then, I started checking EVERYTHING on the mount, and every screw. Some screws were a bit loose and I tightened them, but other than that, all was ok. I had a hard time putting the tv up on the mount by myself, and some of you might say I should have had help. Well, I am strong enough and it wasn't a problem for me to lift, but after 2 failed tries I had to go get a large mirror and set it at the proper height and over to the side so I could use it to see the hooks to hang it on the mount. This got me thinking the mount could be made better to ensure it catches the top rail easier than it does when hanging. Also I noticed the metal the hooks are made of is very easy to bend and gives me a lack of confidence as to it's strength, but might be done on purpose as to be able to adjust them a little. Overall I would not hesitate to buy this mount again if needed, but I would be very intensely inspecting it completely to ensure it's build quality. I can't imagine how mad I would be if my 4K TV got broken due to a failure of the mount allowing it to fall off. Oh, luckily there was a screw that had the same thread pattern in the bag of screws, and although longer than the one that should have been there, it fit just fine. I took the metal corner bracket off the bottom side of the rod and put it on the top as it should be stronger at that point since I was shorted one of those corner brackets. Cheetah most certainly needs to be aware of the production failure and take steps to prevent it from happening!***UPDATE***I am far later than I should be to post this update, but the company quickly credited me 40% of this mount after seeing this issue. They informed me they are aware of the manufacturing problems and are working diligently to fix. I have raised the bar to 5 stars as these folks are the best to ensure their customers are happy. I have also posted a couple of pictures to illustrate just how great this mount is for access. It pulls out almost 2 feet from the wall. In the photo of behind the TV you can see the missing corner bracket on the bottom. It really isn't an issue, it was missing along with the screw to hold the rod on top, I just moved the corner bracket to the top as that is where all the weight stress is. I would not ever hesitate to buy this mount, and personally the 24" is so much better to ensure you can get to at least 2 wall studs. As I stated, it saved me big time as I had more than 16" between studs, probably because of another wall for the bedroom is behind this wall a ways in from the left edge of TV. Please note that if you pull this mount out all the way as I have in the photo, with it's double articulation you need to reach behind and spread the back side of it out a bit to push it back against the wall. This is not any flaw of the mount, just mechanics of how it's designed to give you the distance it has to come out away from the wall. CHEETAH - YOU ROCK!
