- The wiring behind the TV is easy to set up and maintain.
Cons:

- It can't rotate either way.
- It tilts the TV upward and downward, and it also "Pops Out" at 5.7 inches, which makes it easier to reach behind the television. If you're trying to reach the wires behind a large 90-inch TV, for example, the pop-out feature comes in handy. The pop-out feature is also useful in the event that the power outlet is located right in the middle of the TV. This makes it hard to get the outlet and disconnect the power cord.

- TV Wall Mounts with Full Motion
Two varieties of Full Motion TV Wall Mounts are available.
- For smaller TVs for smaller TVs, Full Motion Wall Mount with Single Stud Mounting
- Full Motion Wall Mount with Double Studs to support larger TVs
This particular example is based on the SKU 1281. The articulating bracket is joined to a single stud, allowing for smaller and lighter TVs to be used.
Full Motion Wall Mount with Single Stud Mounting
Our SKU 1291 Full Motion Wall Mount is used in the example below. This wall mount can be mounted on two 16-inch On-Center studs. This double stud mount can clearly support more weight than a single stud mount, making it the ideal choice for mounting heavier and larger televisions.
As you can see the wall plate of this bracket is significantly shorter than the Tilt wall mount bracket that was shown previously (which is the norm for a full motion mount). It's important to note that this mount isn't alone one with a narrow wall plate. The majority of full motion mounts have small wall plates and are built to be affixed to studs that are spaced not over 16 inches off the centre. There are just a handful of models available that allow stud spacing of as much as 24 inches in centre.
The wall plate of most Full Motion Wall Mounts is just large enough to fit onto two 16-inch studs "apart-on-center" is a word which translates to "apart from the center."
Pros:
- Swivel to the left and then to the left
- Suitable for LCD, Plasma, LED, OLED flat and curving screen televisions.
- When you don't need your TV swivelled in an angle, it folds into the wall which is ideal for installing in large rooms or in an area that is corner.
- Some models rotate up to 180 degrees.
- A lot of the models we have available can be tilted down or up.
- You can reach the cable connections on the rear of your television by removing it from the wall.
Cons:
- Due to the thin wall plate design, there is a limitation.
- Most people won't find it easy to put the TV in the correct center location. This depends on where your studs are located. It is not recommended to be installed on walls that are narrow or above the fireplace.
- Most of the time full motion mounts weigh more than other kinds of mounts. They also stick out more.
- While the normal spacing for studs is 16 inches across the center, it's not typical to see the spacing of studs to be greater than 16 inches, particularly when the wall is joined by an adjacent wall perpendicularly. There are only a few full motion mounts on the market that can be installed on studs spaced 24 " apart.
- Televisions that are heavy should not be mounted on drywalls with metal studs, or on the majority of plaster exterior walls in older homes and structures.
- Do you want to put your TV on top of the fireplace? The location of the studs will determine the possibility to centre your TV above the fireplace.
Utilize the Full Motion Wall Mount for the TV's Centering
For mounting a full motion set-top over your fireplace, first find out where the studs will be. This will enable you to determine the possibility of having your TV aligned over them. There is a very slim chance that the studs are exactly where you want them to be in order for your TV to go on your wall.
