Writing this about 1 month after mounting tv. Seems to work exactly as it should. It was relatively easy to install and basically everything needed is included in the package with many options for different tvs and mountings. I have a smaller 42 inch tv; this bracket is perfectly adequate but couldn't speak to larger, heavier sets. I like that this mounting bracket requires minimal holes in the wall, which suits my needs snd was one of the reasons I purchased it, along with price, but I will say one draw-back is that you inevitably knock the TV off level basically every time you swing it in or out from the wall.
