Greater than one weekWith an extra feature and tilt, it allows the installer wide range of tilt forward and backwards as well as side to side tilt to get even level as possible. With modern homes making a pain to find the studs, tilting capability is needed. If there is one con, I would say the design does not allow the installer to measure center and flush to the wall until after everything is set up. On my first attempt, on the picture, the TV is sticking out at least 3 inches from the wall. It took several attempts and 3rd person to loosening, adjusting back arms, and tightening in order to make it flush 1 inch away from the wall. The one cheaper than this model makes it easier to flush, but tilting side to side is not present.

> 3 daySuper easy install thanks to included template. The ability to slide the TV to one side or another is great as well as the ability to move it out from the wall and or tilt it as needed. I had installed it level but felt it was a bit off and since it can be leveled after its on the wall I made a slight adjustment. It also can turn slightly left or right if you would need it to. Im very happy with this.

> 3 dayMounted a 70inch 4K tv with this. I ended up finding out I had metal studs so I got the kit to go with it as well. I was a little nervous at first because I didn’t know how well metal studs were when it came to mounting heavier items, but it’s been a few days now and everything seems great. Tv weighs 70 pounds.

Greater than one weekI really WANTED our 82 TV mounted over the fireplace. But I hated the thought of doing it. Several aspects of the project were, for me, challenging. The builders who built out our lower level did not own a square or a level and would not have known what to do with either. The brick replaced architectural stone in the fireplace. So we scoped behind the brick and could not find any supporting structure (wall, studs, ties to the main fireplace, etc). So we decided to build a wall supported by the mantle and anchored to the ceiling studs with lag bolts. The specs for the TV show it weighs 98.5 lbs. To be sure about the support, we added two 2 x 10s (photo) in the wall where the bracket would mount. We used the supplied lag bolts to mount it to the finished wall. Bolting the mount to the wall was as easy as drilling the 7/32nd holes into the supporting 2 x 10s leveling it and bolting it up. It was no surprise it was 1/16th off level drilling holes like that into material like that. Mounting the brackets onto the back of the TV was almost as easy - and hence only 4 stars. The supplied bolts were a tad long. A washer on each bolt took up the slack nicely. The TV is Samsung 82 Class NU8000 Premium Smart 4K UHD TV. I either overlooked it or it never occurred to us to level the mounts on the back of the TV before we hoisted it up onto the wall. More later on this. The ledge where the two brackets engaged was above eye level with a brick hearth to make the job of hoisting it onto the wall a little harder. We used two men to lift and one, on a ladder in the center, to help as well as ensure the TV did not tilt too far in any direction. It went right onto the wall bracket. AND, once it was up there, sliding it a tad left or right to center it was very easy. Surprising for what I thought was a pretty large TV that was a little heavy. When we put a level on it we were pretty disappointed. We expected from mounting the wall bracket it was not going to be perfect. But on the wall it was about 1/4 off level. Then we discovered the leveling adjustments! Since the TV-side brackets hinged out we had enough room, barely, to access these. However, if wed relied on the supplied allen key to adjust them wed still be making the adjustment. An allen stock bit in a ratchet made the job manageable. AND, we were able to get the bubble in the level perfectly in the center. I think part of MY problem was the whole bracket seemed so simple and straight forward I did not read the instructions as thoroughly as I should. I MAY have saved some angst. At the end of the day, mounting the bracket to both the TV and wall was dead easy. Getting the TV on the wall was only difficult because of the size, weight and height on the wall. The two bracket components aligned and engaged easily. Adjusting the mount was easier with extra tools. In fairness, I would not expect Echogear to include a ratchet, but the allen bit would have been nice. Echogear did a very nice job of packaging the mount, instructions and hardware. The instructions were PRINTED, not something I had to download or read online. THANK you! The hardware was packaged in clear plastic pouches strung together. We rolled out the hardware so we were able to see what was in each pouch making the parts very easy to inventory and find as we worked. NICE! Echogear also included a very nice template printed on sturdy, but not stiff (good thing) cardboard with instructions printed right on it. Again, NICELY done. Conclusion - Honestly, I was a little worried it would support the TV given its size and weight. That just was not a problem - at all. It is more than capable. By the way, moving the big TV around on the mount after it was up and secured was also very easy. AND, it is very sturdy. It does not move around like the size or weight are a problem - at all. Echogear did an outstanding job of making this an easy DIY project. If youre thinking about wall mounting a TV, THIS is the mount and Echogear did a great job with the design and making the job as easy as possible. When their ad read: Ideal for Mounting A 40-85 TV Above A Fireplace. they were NOT kidding. Very highly recommended product and company. Would encourage anyone to purchase.

Greater than one weekI’ve installed probably 25 tv mounts in my day and this one is fantastic. The boxing material is cool. The instructions have funny comments which makes me like this company more. The parts list was more than enough. The spacers were needed and then feting a bunch of different size spacers really made it perfect for me. Good work EchoGear

22-11-2024I was a little nervous about mounting a 65 Television. Im not a contractor but even a novice like myself can install this mount. Instructions were easy and the whole process came off without a hitch. Great Product!
