> 24 hourThis is amazing. I included several pics so you could see how flat the tv sits against the wall when we are not using it, how far out it extends (and its very stable), and how much of an angle you can use when watching from the side. Its also easy to move in and out. Honestly worth every penny! We even put our DISH joey behind the tv.

> 24 hourEasy to install and easy to mount TV on. Heavy and well made. Would be great for mounting TV on a bare wall. Because we mounted ours surrounded by an existing built-in, the handle that you need to reach on the mount is difficult to access. Otherwise, its fantastic.

> 24 hourWell built. Installed really easy. Appears to be very sturdy. I have my 75 Samsung TV 20 inches from the wall and its very secure. Highly recommend this item. I shopped and it was the best one for the price.

> 24 hourI dont wanna be *that guy* that breaks the five-star review streak that this great product has thus far, but I do want to offer a word of warning: if you have an expensive and ultra-thin 65 OLED from a company with a G and an L in the name, be super-uber-certain that the tilt adjustment thingie on this mount (pictured) is VERY well torqued. If its not, the TV could drop down full-tilt while youre enjoying a bowl of ice cream on the couch, thereby cracking the screen and resulting in a $3k paperweight (after just one week of ownership, I might add). Unfortunately, nobody will replace our brand new TV because we didnt lie and tell them it was cracked when we received it—a suggestion from an employee at the store where we purchased the TV before he sent us up to the customer service counter. What an expensive mistake/lesson this has all been. And one that divorces are made of (OK, not really but it wasnt pretty around our house for several hours after the incident). Frick! We are keeping the mount because its very solid (unlike the TV), not to mention its screwed into some farmhouseyish shiplap that would be expensive to replace. Just know that the tilt adjuster and the hex key leveling screws on this mount need to be tight as all get out or it could break your stuff. Sigh.

> 24 hourThis is a very good TV mount. I used it for a 65in LG OLED C1 TV which weights around 75lbs. I had already owned a different full motion mount for my prior TV but given the required placement of the mount on that TV (much lower), I was going to have to move the old one anyway. The specs on that one suggested that it maxed out on a 60inch TV. Im sure it wouldve worked but that other mount was somewhat tough to move when the TV was actually on it so I decided to get a new one. In comes the ECHOGEAR mount... Everything needed for mounting was included. Especially important are the lag bolts for the portion that mounts to the wall. I dont believe I received those with the prior mount so thats an extra cost (and trip) to factor in for other mounts. Also appreciated the template provided. Instructions were clear, well written and entertaining. I really dont know why that is so hard for many companies but they could take a cue from ECHOGEAR on how to write instructions. Overall, installing the mount was not difficult. The hardest part is just making sure you find studs in the wall and are relatively centered on them. And I guess holding the mount while installing the first couple of lag bolts. My installation has the TV located in a cutout over my fireplace -- i.e. a recessed nook. My TV is 57in wide, the cutout is about 59in wide so there isnt a lot of clearance on the sides. After mounting the brackets to the TV, I measured from the bracket hooks on the TV to the top and bottom of the TV to ensure I was placing it at the right height in the cutout. Marked the height in the nook, grabbed the template and marked where my lag bolts would go in. I pre-drilled the holes and then held up the mount while screwing in the lag bolts, making sure it was level along the way. After that, its just a matter of extending the mount, setting the TV brackets on the front top of the mount and securing the bottom. As another reviewer stated, its a good idea to tighten down the tilt mechanism prior to putting on the TV, it can always be adjusted later. Overall, this could probably be done in about 20 minutes but I probably took an hour just to measure multiple times and think thru what I was doing. As I said, I only had about an inch clearance on either side so I was worried that my slightly off-center studs were going to make it very difficult. Based on where the holes in the backplate are and where my studs were located, the mount was an inch closer on one side then the other, so I was still worried about being centered. Turns out, that was all for naught -- while its good to be as centered as possible, there is sufficient lateral movement in the mount to get the TV centered even if the mount isnt. You might be asking, why only 4 stars? Well, I have a couple of small gripes. Some may be fair, some less so: 1. This mount moves easily, even with a 75lb mounted. Much, much better then my last one. I wanted this feature but now that its mounted, Im not as convinced I do. I only need the movement when first mounting it to pull the TV out, connect everything and then push the TV back into the cutout. After that, Id prefer it didnt move again until I replace it. WIth this mount, if you touch the TV, it will move -- no real force needed. Given my minimal clearance on the sides and the fact that my TV is a thin piece of glass, I have minor concerns that Im going to bounce it into the walls when cleaning. Hard to blame the mount for being too fluid but its a thing. 2. The paper template is nice for marking your holes. My minor gripe there is that its hard to hold a piece of paper against a wall, put a level on it and mark the spots for you lag bolts at the same time. Very minor complaint and there may be some trick to this that Im missing but it would be lovely if some clever person came up with a solution to that -- like a thicker edge on the template. 3. Another minor complaint that may be more on LG then ECHOGEAR -- which screw should I use to mount the brackets to the TV? ECHOGEAR provides several different sizes with different lengths and widths. Ideally, you want to use the longest one that will fit in your TV. The problem is, that if you use one that is too long, you break your TV. If you use one too short, your TV may dismount prematurely. This is probably on the TV manufacturer to provide since Im sure it varies. But a note in the instructions would be nice on how best to determine this. I struggled with this longer then I should have. For me, I took a medium length M10 bolt, attempted to thread it slowly and gently into the TV to see if it would fit all the way. It did, so I went with that. Could I have used a longer one? Perhaps, but well never know. 4. The last gripe is cost. My previous mount was about $50. This one was closer to $120. They are both equally heavy duty and built very similarly. This one has much more fluid motion so its worth extra $$. But is it worth over double? Probably not. But given how much I spent on the TV, Im not going to lose sleep over the cost of the mount but I feel like it would be a better value around $80 and that would have warranted a 5th star from me. In summary, I listed gripes but the reality is that there are many more features of this mount that are good and its definitely something I would purchase again or recommend to a friend. However, I would also have them watch to see if they could get it a little cheaper than list price.

> 24 hourLove how this mount worked. Installation was not too difficult and included the anchor bolts needed along with a template to drill holes. Bracket was just wide enough for the 24in centers to mount into studs. once mounted the tv movement is perfect. The scissor action of the mount lets you push it straight into the bracket. Plenty of room extended to allow for all the cabling hookup. Highly recommend this TV mount. confident it will hold the TV and have enough adjustment to get the view you need

> 24 hourThis was easy to install. All you need is to locate your studs and use the template to drill the holes. Easy as that.
