One of the biggest sellers on Amazon is the TV wall mount. Wall-mounting your flat-screen TV is a great way to save space. Some places you can wall-mount your flat-screen include:

• Over your fireplace mantel
• In one of the cubbies of a built-in wall unit
• In an outdoor lounge or patio area
• On your kitchen backsplash

Many TV wall mounts can articulate — swing out and pivot up and down. This adds flexibility to your wall-mounted TV system because you can angle the TV for the ideal viewing angle, or to avoid glare from a sunny day.
