   I own three of these mounts and have been very pleased thus far. I put two in my office at home so that I can have them on and extended during the market hours then have them turned off and flush against the walls in the evening. The other is in my bathroom across from the john which I use during market hours while I am doing my biz, double entendre not intended. I highly recommend picking a few up if you have the means.

   The reason I wanted to get the X-Arm is because it is motorized and I can adjust my TV with my remote. My TV is over my fireplace in a cathedral ceiling sunken great room with a lot of windows. Due to the layout of our furniture, sun glare, and how many people might be watching TV at any one time, I find myself adjusting the TV a lot or closing the blinds. I had a traditional articulating mount, but it is a pain to stand up and adjust it nearly twice a day and even a bit dangerous for my wife because at 56 she can barely reach it, let alone my kids. I also didn't like the fact that I had to grip my TV to adjust it. I also love that when you turn the TV off it goes nearly flush against the wall which looks much better when the TV is off. I don't mind paying a bit more for the convenience of a remote controllable motorized mount. And the price is not that different from a normal articulating mount which is basically just a piece of aluminum or steel without all the electronic gadgetry and engineering of the X-Arm.

This is one very well made mount. Since this review I bought another one for my bedroom. Trust me when I say you get what you pay for. Everyone that has seen it at my home now want one themselves. It is really is that cool. When you want to create a true home theater experience, this mount is an essential as the rest of the home theater components.
