I was a little apprehensive in buying this item on Amazon. I could only find one review on Amazon prior to my purchase. The main complaint of the review was regarding the distance between the wall studs and that fact that this distance was not being spelled out in the specs. However, the review did state that the HRM-100 was "....definitely sturdy." I couldn't agree more. The HRM-100 is sturdy as an ox. It is solid steel and built very well. I'm currently using it for a 32" HDTV. I plan to swap out my TV for a 47" and I have no concerns regarding the ability of the HRM-100 to support a larger TV. Most homes in the U.S. were built to spec with the studs that are 16 inches apart. So, this should be a non-issue for most buyers. After bolting the HRM-100 to the wall with four huge bolts, I was ready to watch TV. The install was great and directions were sufficient. I recommend this to anyone. I couldn't believe the price on Amazon compared to other articulating mounts. The HRM-100 was approx 1/2 to 1/3 the price of other options. But a lower price definitely did not mean lower quality. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase.

Hello I bought this product about 1 week ago. I have a 47" TV and i was a little worried about the weight of my tv. Let me say this, After i mounted the mount to the wall hiting two studs. I hung from it. I weigh 215lbs.. And the mount didnt budge. This is a great product. My dad has a omin mount and says that this mount looks better, and you can run the wires alot easier wth this rather than the omni mount. This is a great pruduct. And i would like to hank the other reviews, because thats what sold this item. Im getting a 55" for my back room. No doubt that this mount will do the job. Thank You very much. Sgt James Heinold
A really sturdy wall mount with a lot of positioning possibilities

Let me make it clear, you have to mount this to the studs. It is heavy duty! I have a Bravia 52' hanging from it. You can position the tv brackets up or down on the back of the TV to raise or lower it which is a nice feature. the tv can also be slid from side to side by loosening the tension bolts on the bracket. This gives you extra room to play with your baseline setup. after that the extension arms allow you to pull the tv forward and twist side to side depending on which part of the room you want to view from. It also has a secure tilt adjustment. I really like this mount and feel for the money it is the best mount I could have possibly bought as I have looked at many different kinds. This one was inexpensive but definitely not cheaply built! I love the versatility and ease of use. Installation is a bit tricky and it HAS to be mounted to the studs. The directions that come with the stand tend to be tad vague. All-in-all, if you want a great mount for a great price that gives you some freedom of placemnet and still manages to hold the TV flat to the wall when not in use this is a fantastic little (understatement) mount.
As always, Amazon shipped it fast.
Sturdy enough for my corner-mounted tv

I am very happy with the Opteka 100 Dual-arm TV mount. I was looking for a LCD mount that was heavy-duty enough to mount my 47" LCD in a corner of a room. This worked perfectly. It took me about 30 minutes to instal. The instructions could be better. But if your smart enough to find a stud in a wall to anchor to, you can figure out what the instructions are lacking. I am very impressed at how sturdy and well built this thing is. After I put it an the wall, I extended the arms out and hung from the arms. I only weigh about 160lbs, but it didn't budge. I would recommend this to anyone.
Solid Mount for an excellent price!

The Hercules HRM 100 articulating wall mount is an excellent product. I hung a 52inch 7 series Samsung LCD using this mount, it is extremely solid and I didn't need to buy one extra part to get it done. I have not tried any of the other 3,000 mounts that are available but I don't feel I need to. I think it swivels and tilts great, its not like you move your television around that much any way but this thing makes it easy. It does seem extremely strong and I don't see it ever coming off that wall unless I take it down. Anyway if your looking for a wall mount this one is great, and for the price you can go wrong.
