It's an amazing piece of machinery. I can turn a 50" TV sideways to see it out on my deck or in the dining room which are on opposite ends of the house I can also push it in straight so it looks just like a regular mounted TV. I also bought one for my office so i have a 50" TV as one of my computer monitors (I'm an animator) so I can see detail if needed. It's an excellent purchase, don't even think twice.
