Very easy to install.
(5 out of 5) by Cheetokhan on Dec 10, 2006 (Gulf Coast)Just got this to mount my new Mitsubishi DH1000U. I needed something that would let me mount my projector to a sloped ceiling, and this worked perfectly. Only took me about 30 minutes to attach this to the projector, mount it on the ceiling, and adjust it. Really easy to install and adjust.
This assembly is heavier duty than it appears in the pictures. All the joints are easy to adjust and are locked in place with pre-installed Allen head lock screws. Once the lock screws are tightened, the mount is completely rigid.
They even include the Allen wrench in the box. All you need is a drill with a 5/32 bit for the 3 heavy duty screws that hold it to the ceiling joist, and a Phillips screwdriver (I used a driver bit in a cordless drill).
The way this is designed, you could use it to mount a projector to a ceiling or to a wall.

Simple and solid
(5 out of 5) by Jim Westhoff on Aug 7, 2007I bought this to hold my HD1000U and it is working great. The directions are worthless. Putting it together based on the picture on the box was about as good. But it was so simple you really don't need the directions. It was as easy as finding a stub, drilling 3 holes and screw it in. Then mount the projector to the other end and attach the two sides. It will bend any direction you want and the extention bar is only needed if you want the 12 inch drop. I thought I would need it, but was able to install it without it. It looks nice and works great.

For projectors with 3 mounting holes
(3 out of 5) by Autodidact on Jan 24, 2008 (Brooklyn, NY United States)This is a good mount but it is designed for projectors that only need three mounting points. many projectors need 4 mounting points (one in each corner) this will make this mount difficult to us....

Simply Amazing
(5 out of 5) by J. Weight on Mar 11, 2008I have been using this projector mount for about 6 months now and have had absolutely no problems with it. I got the mount because I had a beam directly in front of the desired mounting position. The extension allowed me to get the projector just low enough to get the picture under the beam.
The mount is very solid and extremely adjustable, allowing you to get the perfect fit on your screen. This is the first projector mount I have used, but I can't imagine using any other. I am using it with a Mitsubishi HD1000U projector.
Basically? This thing is awesome!

Doesn't work with Optoma HD 65
(2 out of 5) by K. on Sep 30, 2008I ordered this mount for the Optoma HD 65. I bought this one because it was listed as a "buy together" with the projector. Unfortunately, it seems that the mount will not work with this projector--- even the smallest size is too large for the projector. I am going to return it and order one specifically for the HD 65, but just a warning for anyone looking at this mount from the "buy together" link.
