excellent contruction, easy to mount and set up, comes with everything needed including sheetrock mounting kit. Love the low price. Just buy it, you won't be dissapointed.

I bought this mount because at the price point I was willing to spend on a TV mount and with all the favorable reviews I figured it'd be worth the risk.
Everything was in the box and the parts were thicker than thought they would be. The mount is sturdy and went up quite easily.
Like others have said the level built in the stand is worthless, but the one included is quite handy.
For my 32" it was on the larger side, but no bars are visible from the viewing area, so it's not a big deal. Of course, I thought I ordered the smaller one, but that's my fault.

A simple, well made mount! Much better than other mounts costing 2 to 3 times as much. Nice finish, low profile, strength, and simplicity make this mount one of the best values on the market!!

I bought my second Panasonic Plasma after about 8 months of using my first (and after my 15yr old Sony 25" started acting up). For my first Plasma I had purchased a $70 wall mount. Since I was mounting to brick fire place, I wanted a good quality mount. I was pleased with it. For my new purchase it was going up on wallboard/wood studs. I came across the Cheetah, read the reviews and decided to take a chance.
The mount came with all hardware. Instructions are sparse. Luckily I'm a mechanical engineer so I really didn't need them anyway. The thing is flimsy and not nearly as sturdy as my first mount. It is made out of stamped sheet metal. If you like high quality construction I wouldn't recommend it. Since as far as I'm concerned as long as it stays up, and holds my 60lb TV, then I really didn't care. I hung the bracket and tested it with my body weight. It held, so it has at least a 3x design margin on overload. With that test complete, I felt confident my TV would not come off in anything less than a 7.0 earthquake.
I recommend this for anyone looking for a low cost mount that is easy to install.
One word of caution. My bracket came with a level embedded in it. It was obvious that the machined hole where the level was placed was NOT square with the edge of the frame. They also packed a separate level with the unit (shown in picture). USE THE SEPARATE LEVEL!!! I suspect they had A LOT of complaints about the embedded level. DO NOT USE IT or you will be drilling 2 sets of holes in your wall (the second AFTER you figure out the the level is a piece of garbage).

Bought this mount based on the other reviews out there and the fact that I don't like paying ridiculous prices for things that you can get much cheaper with the same quality. This mount was very easy to install (4 screws in the wall, 4 screws in the tv and you are hanging). The screws for my tv were included Samsung LN40B630 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color. It is very sturdy (I think the wall screws are a bit overkill but get the job done) and the tv hangs nicely. Plenty of room for cables out the back. One recomendation is to tighten the tilt bracket most of the way to where you want it before hanging the tv. It gets pretty tight once the tv is up there and is a little difficult to tighten this piece at that point. Like the other reviewers, I ditched the included "level" and used a real one. One other note is that if you hang the tv and it is slightly crooked, the brackets on the back of the tv have some wiggle room so you can move one or the other slighltly up or down within the precut holes for minute adjustments. Overall, very satisfied. Great product.
