Amazon Basics Full Motion Articulating TV Wall Mount review

Amazon Basics Full Motion Articulating TV Wall Mount is a simple single-stud arm for small and midsize screens. Amazon's listing says it is designed for TVs up to 80 lbs and 26 to 55 inches, for VESA patterns from 3.9 x 3.9 inches through 15.7 x 15.7 inches, with tilt from plus 10 to minus 5 degrees, and that it suits concrete, brick and wood stud walls with a single stud. That makes it useful where only one stud sits behind the spot you want, such as beside a window or in a kitchen. Amazon showed us prices in Polish zloty, so we could not confirm a US dollar price and have marked it pending; check Amazon.com for the current price. With a 55 inch ceiling it is not a choice for most living room TVs, where the Mounting Dream MD2380 or Echogear EGLF2 fit larger screens. We compared documented specs only and did not test the mount.
