All TV brackets need to be good quality, as its whats holding your expensive TV on the wall!!
Yeah he definetly bought a shit bracket, it was un-branded like all the other dog-shit on ebay
I would be buying something like B-tech, they're cheap and reliable and have all the BS:EN stamps etc... just to reassure you. But all the brackets ive fitted recently have been the Alphason ones, really good quality and look nice, and aren't too dear.
I really dont believe in penny-pinching when your looking at holding a £????? TV on the wall where it could fall, break, hurt someone etc...

How can a bit of sheet metal fall?
Forget cantilever ones for a moment, if a piece of sheet metal has a good fixing on the wall how exactly can it fall?

A cheap ebay piece of crap!
It bent over about a year/18months, not bent like totaly, just twisted a bit under the weight which has caused the TV to look seriously pissed!
You cant tell how strong something is with a shitty picture on the internet
