I ordered this when I ordered a 32" flatscreen. I had to get it into a cabinet with a door opening significantly smaller than the width of the TV. I also wanted to get maximum extension so as to turn it toward perpendicular to the stored position. This one had a long reach and seemed over-engineered for the size I was using but it also seemed the best in most other respects. I was right on all counts. It looks good, acts good, mounts easily and except for some geometry I failed to determine, works great. When in the stored position, the section of arm furthest from the tv actually goes behind the plane of the cabinet (won't happen in most situations), so when I reinstalled the back, I had to put a hinged trapdoor in to accommodate. It swings shut so when the set is fully deployed, the hole is covered. Buy one if you can afford it. The hammered silver finish was my second choice to black but looks fine. Incidentally, since it mounts to a single stud, and since my antique wardrobe is in 3 pieces, it will only take so much weight so far out in front before tipping, I had to install 3 - 2x4's - two horizontal and one vertical to hold all the parts together and to prevent tipping. Then drill the pilot hole and screw those lags into the vertical & hang the tv - piece of cake. No chance of grands swinging on the tv and tipping the whole thing over on them.

Mount very sturdy, and no worries about maintaining television weight. Installation may have been easier if the instructions were included. Great mount, sturdiest I have seen.

This is the second omnimount product that i have purchased. I have the larger and smaller mounts. There are a lot of reviews commenting on panel drift and that the screws provided are inadequate. I did not find this to be true. Granted both of my applications are for tv's that are at the lower end of the recommended range however, i see no sign of this problem. These mounts are affixed easily with a great functional use and good esthetics. I would only mount these directly into a stud for sense of security.
