the ceiling i am mounting to is at an angle is there a ball joint in the top or is it just a straight mount?

No there is not a ball joint at the top of mount. Must be mounted on a flat ceiling.

I have my 70" Sony LCD mounted on this mount. It is cast iron, with no ball joint. It does tilt up and down, but probably not enough to mount on an angled ceiling. (could always go through ceiling and make a flat mountable point in roof joists??)

It is at the angle shown, although I'm sure you can bend it if you wanted. The angle helps hang from a little higher up ... something to keep in mind when planning where to mount it.

I have mine at an angle. It works fine. It swings. As long at the wall where you mount it is flat the angle does not matter.

It is flat at the ceiling but there is an articulation joint that hangs from it for the bar for the light to hang on.

Yes, it has the standard ceiling-fan "ball mount" system that would let it work on an angled ceiling. Not sure what the max angle is, but as long as your definition of "slightly" is reasonable you should be fine.

No, I installed it straight, but it can be installed at an angle. It does have it's limitations, but as long as you anchor it properly, it should be fine.

It swivels to the side not up. I have a low ceiling and it works perfectly.

All necessary hardware is included for standard ceiling mount. Straight rod is short! If you require longer rod Home Depot is the ticket

Yes. That is how I mounted mine. One person setup and pretty easy if you have the right tools. Make sure you get a stud in the ceiling.Looks sharp!

I have it mounted at a different house than the one I live in, so can't remember exactly, but from memory, I recall that the bracket that mounts to ceiling has slotted screw holes, but I can't remember which direction. Even if it is side to side, that's only about 1/4" movement. I think you can also get some side to side by how you attach TV on main TV bracket. In other words, you can offset TV some when installing. But as for actual side to side swivel, there is none. The swivel is front to back, and there is also rotation around post, but that's it.

Yes. The way they set it up is the straight extension is meant to be used if you hang them from the ceiling to give you more clearance. I took them all out because I mounted straight to the wall.

The one I received was single side. Can be mounted from the back or the top.

it mounts in the same way, held on by the light bulb reflector. the only real difference is that the grill portion is a little larger, which makes no difference if there are no obstructions close by your flat ceiling

Checking with my husband and he thinks u might not have mounted it correctly. Ours is flat and centered at top.

It does not fit a sloped ceiling since the "ball" fitting is inside the upper housing. You can try mounting on a sloped ceiling but the upper housing that covers the electrical connections is set screwed to the extension rod and the whole assembly swings. I hope the answer was clear.

This is not standard mount system, you have 3 screws, but in the ceiling only 2 wholes (I least I had only 2). We mounted to those 2 and did the third whole directly into ceiling, otherwise it will not hold it right.

It can be mounted with the screws that come with it. Directly into the wall. Straight. No Angles.
