    Got mine off eBay , always cheaper than elsewhere and much of a muchness

    Up and down swivel is a must , not just left and right

    Make sure you use proper fittings for the wall !

    Thanks browntoa:)
    They will be put on stud walls . I have a builder doing some jobs for me, so I'll get him to put them up.
  • I've been looking on eBay and elsewhere .
    Are the brackets universal ? Was looking at cantilever ones.

    Thanks

    Never had an issue with the real cheapo ones from Amazon tbh, you just need to make sure the bolt pattern matches your tv (vesa size) but most of them usually do, not found a bracket I couldn't use yet!
    If you go slimline, make sure you have enough room for cables behind (you can buy 90° plugs if it's a problem)

    Thanks for that :)

    Yes, I will checkout the vesa size . The main reason I was thinking of the cantilever was because of my concern of getting behind the tv now and again for access to the cables.
    I could go for a cheaper moder that just tilts , but I'd feel safer knowing I could get access to the cables whenever .
  • I decided to go on eBay , and get a more basic tiliting model.
    £11.99 . They mentioned toshiba 32" and larger so I went with that :)
