Digital camera reviews of Peerless SF640 Universal Fixed Low-Profile Wall Mount for 23" to 46" Displays (Black)
Digital camera Review: Decent mount BUT, they failed to mention one very important thing...
Summary: 1 Stars
First and foremost, just like others have stated make sure it works with your panel...it's a simple phone call. I called and support was quick and verified that my new 40" Toshiba LCD panel works. Their on-line fit utility is somewhat vague and didn't seem to refresh right after selecting my panel, so just call to be sure.
Okay for the ringer on this product. They fail to mention both on the Amazon description and in the paperwork that the mounting wall plate will only work on walls with studs 16" OC of less. My studs and many other homes in the area are 24" OC. So am I going to return the product? NO! I don't have the time...I'm thrifty in my wood shop so I mounted the plate to ¼" red oak strips to effectively lengthen the wall plate to reach two studs on each end. One end of the plate is actually anchored to a stud, it's the other end that is simply mounted to the red oak strip in which that end is mounted to a stud. Don't simply mount the plate to a wood strip w/o at leas anchoring one side top and bottom to a stud. Actually, I don't recommend this, just stating for explanation purposes.
Not sure if this has been mentioned in previous reviews, so sorry for any duplicate data here.
Digital camera Review: Definitely worth it.

This mount comes with everything you need to adapt it to any of the models it is designed to work with. Kind of hard to tighten the final retaining screws but a very nice , secure mount. I wasn't able to find any tv mounts in town that were less than $100 bucks. This is a good buy. Check the peerless website to see which mount is designed for your exact flat screen.Digital camera Review: Did NOT fit my 46 in LCD
Summary: 3 Stars
The product description says it fits most 32-46 flat screens. However when you open the box the first page of the instructions state clearly "Most 42" and larger plasma screens may not work with this mount." The brackets were not long enough to fit our 46 inch LCD either.Digital camera Review: Didn't Fit a Visio 32" LCD
Summary: 2 Stars
The Peerless SF640 is not designed for a Visio 32" LCD TV, even though it says it will fit -- the adapter bracket fasteners didn't fit the Visio. I had to send this one back and order a SF650 which according to Peerless is the correct fit.
You might want to call Peerless at 800-865-2112 to determine the correct model that will fit your TV.
Digital camera Review: Does NOT fit MOST 42" or larger TVs!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I was searching for a mount for my new 42" plasma TV, and found this on Amazon. Fortunately, I read the reviews and saw several complaints that this mount didn't fit certain TVs. I then went to the manufacturer's site, peerlessindustries.com, and looked up this model. Right on their product page for this item, the manufacturer warns that this model will NOT fit most TVs 42" and higher. So, unless you want to take a chance, don't get this if your TV is 42" or more. They really shouldn't sell a product named as a universal wall mount for 22"-49" TVs, then have a disclaimer on their site that it won't fit many 42"+ TVs!!! UPDATED 8/23/08- the disclaimer appears to be no longer on their site but I do not know if the product has actually been changed. If you search online you will find many complaints that the mount doesn't fit many 42"+ TVs, so be warned to be carefully when considering this.
