I ordered two of these and have them installed into the wall in my home theater. One holds my projector and the other holds whatever component is being projected (Xbox, Wii, Laptop, Ps3). At first it seems weird to set them up with the rounded end against the wall and the square end pointing out, but it actually does work better that way.
Since there are only two points where this attaches to the wall, it DOES rock sideways a little bit. Actually it's more of a rotate, but you know what I mean. Getting the mount perfectly level is a lot more difficult that you'd think.
Also, once the shelf is fully installed, it DOES tilt DOWN, and is not square with the wall. That's just the way it is. Normally that's not a big deal, but it was a big deal for me, because I have my projector sitting upside down on it for an inverted-front-projection and across about a 10 foot throw the image dropped about 6 to 7 inches more than it should have.
I had to mount this into a wood stud with the screws it came with (behind 2 layers of drywall). I had initially bought some 50-lb drywall anchors and used those to hold the shelf with my projector on it, but as I was setting everything up the shelf started tilting forward and the top anchor pulled right out of the wall. The weight was not the issue -- it was the torque (twist away from the wall around the bottom of the bracket). I caught everything in time, and want my lesson to be served as a warning to others -- DO NOT try mounting this directly into drywall unless you have the mounts that expand in the empty space behind the drywall (and if you don't know what that means, then just don't try it at all).
NOTE TO NEW PURCHASERS: Do NOT install the top plate before attaching the bracket to the wall! You will have a loose and slightly less unstable connection.

For my purpose of suspending a cable box above my flatsceen this was the best product that I cvould find. It appears to be very well made and has a clean, attractive design.

It's super easy to install, Just align it right and two screws only. And after installing it, it is soooooo clean. I used it for putting my theater projector. The shelf blend in so well. Love it.
I ordered three in total, I'm going to put a receiver on another one. The spec says it will hold 25 pounds, and the receiver is exactly 25 pounds. Let's see if it will actually hold up or not. :)

This product is great. If you don't have a power drill, it becomes a test of strength based on your wall. Me and a friend spent a long time trying to actually get the screws that came with it all the way in. Once we did, we saw how nice and sturdy it was. It's great for mounting anything the size can handle. Right now, I have a DVD player, a DVR, and a Receiver on it. I would try not to put much more than that on this, as it's not rated to hold THAT much weight. When you put it together the glass part is actually held between rubber balls on the plates above and below it. It's good so that you get it very stable without having a chance of it cracking. Something else to mention is that when you are screwing on the glass portion, make sure to screw it in evenly (IE screw a little on the left, then screw a little on the right) or else you may have trouble getting that part together easily. It's just as advertised, and easy on the eyes. Make sure you check the dimensions so that it isn't protruding too much for your liking.

This is a great product. I have it holding up a dvd & satellite box. Installation was really a breeze and it easily has enough space to hold the components plus hiding the wires behind it.
