How much can your TV swivel with this unit... I need almost a full 90 degree turn for this to work.

Depends somewhat on the size of your TV. I'd say 45 degrees max. Not sure 90 would be possible with any mount.

I have a 55' Vizio. It probably could swing to 90* if the TV wasn't so wide. In other words the arm doesn't extend far enough to make the 90 with a 55' TV. Fully extended from the wall to the back of the TV is about 20 inches. I can get about 65*. You can adjust the mounts on the back of the TV to be off center which adds about 6" and could be enough. I tried it out of curiosity. It gives me about 80*. Be happy to send pics if I new how.

I just measured mine which is as yet uninstalled. When the mount is fully extended and turned 90 deg, you have slightly less than 18" between the wall and the center of the mounting plate. According to my estimates, you should be able to turn a TV 90 deg as long as the total width of the unit is 36" or less. Hope that helps.

it depends on how large (wide) the tv set is. I have a 50 inch and it will only swivel about 45 degrees.

No, the long base for the television has a slightly smaller base that sits on the table or shelf so the swivel actually moves, while the base remains stationary. I also put felt protectors on the base to make sure it didn't leave an impression and that's worked. But one thing I would be sure of are the measurements of your television base and table. I have a long, hard oak stand and it is perfect for the size and weight of my 36" heavy television. Your TV is 10" wider.

We have ours mounted in a motor home and are limited by how far we can turn the TV from side to side. I would estmate you could move it back and forth 180 degrees though. It's very flexible.

I have the TV facing at over 90 degrees from the wall it is mounted on. [Odd situation, but just sayin'] There are also adjustments to compensate for not mounting it perfectly "square" on the wall.

We also have a 32 inch and it does swivel. I'm telling you, this TV just doesn't have it.

David - Yes! As long as the width of the TV is no more than 32". The mount is about 16 inches from pivot joint to pivot joint, which means that if your TV is double that width (32"), it will be able to turn without hitting the wall.

Yes it swivels, but the range is not great. I would say that you are limited to approximately 15 to 20 degrees of swivel each way.

The TV will turn left or right and the tilt and lock is the whole arm, from 90 degrees to zero.This is so you can tilt it under a cabinet, IF YOU HAVE ROOM.

Mine flips up to 90 degrees, it does not flip all the way over to the back of the unit.

I measured it last night with a plum line. The TV is 27" tall and leans 1 1/2" forward at the top. Doing the trig. gives you about a 10 degree tilt. It is obvious and unacceptable to me. I will be in discussion with the retailer later today and may have to return the entire TV tomorrow. I have mounted the TV onto the base three times with the same result each time. I see no adjusting screws to work with. Harvey

I cannot be helpful as this seems to be a different use. I purchased the swivel as a gift to use with a TV and it works very well.

It doesn't rotate or have give room. I never used mine. Ended up going to Target and picking up a stand with swivel. Unless you have a dead on spot and expect to never move the tv I suggest otherwise. I was using mine for a corner as well. Hope that helps

I also wanted to mount this unit as close to the corner as possible. The swivel arm design allowed me to mount the base to the wall and move the 46" TV to appear as though it was mounted in the corner. Because the base is flat it needs to be mounted to a very solid surface if you want to position the TV close to the corner because that puts all the weight of the TV the maximum distance away from the base and there is a tremendous force placed on the mounting base in that configuration. You may also be limited, as I was, by wall stud locations if you're mounting to a frame wall. I was able to find studs pretty close to where they needed to be but since they weren't in the perfect location, my TV barely covers the visibility of the mounting base - but it does work.

I wouldn't do it. If it starts going off-center as you are swiveling it you may not notice after several weeks and it could go off-balance. If you have kids I definitely wouldn't do it. Also, you should check the weight capacity of the unit. I think this one was about 100 lbs. There are ones from the same company that hold up to 250 lbs. If the base on your tv is 37 inches, it could easily be over 100 lbs.

No, it cannot turn 90 degrees. It tilts. You will also need speakers. All in All, I'm pleased with it.
