I read the reviews and was happy to find a decent tilt mount for a television smaller than thirty inches. However, after I bought the product i realized something pretty drastic: The plates used to mount the television to the actual wall mount were FAR to big for the back of my 26 inch Samsung LCD tv. The mount on the left side worked perfectly, but on the right side, the mounting plate actually hung down so far it blocked a lot of my input jacks.

As well as blocking my input jacks (as some televisions have them in the middle instead of on the side) the same brackets actually stuck out a good seven inches ABOVE my television. As aesthetically displeasing as this is, I don’t think I will send the mount back, but I really wish there was a picture added to show users how the mount affixes to the back of the television. Also, the mount comes with several different size mounting bolts, which I was happy to see, BUT there were none small enough to fit my television. If you run into this problem, simply go to your nearest BestBuy and ask for the proper size mounting bolts (your television’s manual should have the size listed)

It is a very sturdy product, looks great, is textured so the mount will not screech and slide, and is well worth the money. But be prepared to have some trouble if you have a smaller than 30″ television.

My parents bought a new flat screen television a few months ago as a spur of the moment gift for the two of them. Since it was spur of the moment, they had decided to wait on getting a mount and just used a stand they already had. Of course, they didn’t realize how attractive their new television was to my mother’s cats. The cats would jump on top of the stand and rub all over it, sometimes even tipping it over against the wall. After saving their television a few times, I knew they had to get a mount. The prices at the local Best Buy were outrageous, and most of the ones being sold through the classifieds were bad as well. Then, I stumbled upon this mount. It doesn’t have the fancy capabilities of the most expensive mounts, like being to pull it away from the wall, or being able to turn it in any direction. It does tilt up and down enough to compensate for any glare from a nearby light, so it’s not like it doesn’t move at all. My father loved the fact that it came with a level in the box, and it had one along the back support beam to help him get it straight (what he didn’t like was realizing that the other decorations and pictures surrounding the television were off center )

To get to the point, this mount WORKS. It holds a 32inch with no problem whatsoever. I would definitely recommend this product.

The description for this mount said it worked with most TV’s and listed Samsung as one of the TV’s. However, the included mounting bolts didn’t fit my 26″ Samsung, (there was no service # or anything from the manufacturer) and I had to get search some out on my own that were the proper size. The mount was very simple to mount to the wall though and easy to install once I had a the proper bolts to attatch my TV.

The Cheetah mount is a great combination of ruggedness, simplicity and price. We followed instructions, assembled and installed the unit, and had the 32″ LCD mounted and operating within an hour. I have no idea why local stores charge 4-5 times the price for a wall mount with no more capability than the Cheetah mount.

We set the tilt angle before we attached the TV and avoided the adjustment issues mentioned in other ratings.

I was hesitant at first given the inexpensive price, especially in comparison to other mounts. The product arrived quickly, right befor Christmas for a new TV. Simple to assemble and mount. Can’t go wrong with this one.
