I bought two of these for 15" Sony LCD TV's. The bracket is very sturdy and generally of good construction. Television fits without unecessary sloppiness of the bracket and is easy to position although ours will end up staying in the same position. If you like accurate and logical instructions about installing the bracket you will be disappointed. It's fairly easy to work out but for the DIY averse you may find the depth and logic of the instructions disappointing. This is the only reason they get 4 stars rather than 5

Unlike other LCD TV bracket, which come fully assembled (you only have to screw a plate on the wall), this one comes in a myriad of pieces which have to be put together with the limited help of some poor instructions.
Secondly, unlike other models in which the arm fitted on the TV slides in on the wall plate, this one has to assembled and linked to the wall plate (needs 2 people).
Thirdly there is poor match between the wall-mounting screws and their plugs and the screws cannot be properly tightened (they remain loose).
I also have reservations about the tilting part of the arm, which carries the whole TV weight and is made of plastic: does it ever snap?.
Tomorrow I will buy a different model from Homebase!

The bracket does what is says on the tin, just one thing that let me down was one of the joints made entirely of unsecurily looking plastic (no metal moulded in, checked several times). I took the risk, my LCD is not too heavy. It would be a 5* with the metal one.

Received ahead of promised time. Easy to put together following the illustrated sheet. Very easy to move round and adjust viewing angle etc. As expected from Amazon well made, looks good and works.

Very sturdy bracket, excellent value for money. Instructions are poor but it only takes common sense to work it out. The main arm is fixed so consider a hinged arm if you want to conceal the bracket behind a small tv.

Instructions very poor and unclear, but as other reviews state it's easy to work out. I only got three fixing screws and not four as I expected, but the diagram only appears to show three, TV has not fallen off the wall yet, so assume this is correct, but without clear instructions I may never know if I should have had four! You could always buy an additional fixing to be sure.......

Instructions aside this is a cheap buy, and does the job well.

Ok does exactly what it says on the packet, good fixing screws included, plastic cover a bit cheap looking but over all good value

This tv arm is very sturdy and will hopefully give me many years of reliability. Instructions are on the simple side but could work out what went where (it's not as efficient as argos sold products where you're given references to the parts). My only niggle is that they supply you with bolt screws - why they feel the need to do this i dont know.

Great little bracket - simple and intuitive to install. With respect to one of the reviewers, ummm, how can you go wrong exactly? What's hard about it? Thank God it's not chess! Seriously, a few bits in a kit that anyone can install. Highly recommended, good, and strong.

No list of components! and useless instructions, use a magnifing glass to read! After my wife and I spent a frustrating Sunday morning fixing the bracket to the wall(you need a box spanner to do this! nothing supplied)We found we were missing a bolt to complete the Job!! Therefore a trip to the local DIY to try and find a suitable replacement. Avoid like the plague.
