> 3 dayPurchased this full articulation wall mount for a 50 TV. The rating says upwards of 55 with a max load of 99 lbs. The Vizio 50 TV weighs in at 24 lbs so more than enough. The mount really looks and feels sturdy. It has a max mounting of 16 on center. It came with a variety pack of TV mounting screws, spacers and washers. The directions give a pictorial but it needs to be highlighted further on the screw engagement to the TV. You want as much tread engagement as possible without bottoming out so experiment with the spacers and screw lengths. From start to finish, it took about an hour. Something to note: Because my studs are not centered with the fireplace / mantle, I had to slide the TV bracket mounts right of center about 3 on the wall mount. It looks like you have about 4 to go in either direction. So, in a case like mine, it gives me assurance the off-balance weight load will be handled without issue (see above on weights). The wall mount is pretty condensed such that any wall outlets need to be above or below the mount. Also, the mounting kit came with a 9-ft HDMI cable and 3 Velcro cable ties. By the way, I tried Walmart first so I wouldnt have to wait. Their selection was not very good and for me to get something similar, it would have cost me about 2x the price so Im really happy I went the Amazon route.

> 3 dayThis is just what you want if youre looking to wall mount your big screen TV. Ive been using this type of mount for years. And, hear me, this is important...this unit comes assembled. Just take it out of the box and its ready to mount. No assembly required. The good. Its well made. It can be mounted by one person...if you are experienced. It articulates easily and over a range that exceeds the mount Im using now. All the parts are there... The bad...nothing. Just remember to predrill your studs before you try driving the lag bolts that are used to secure the mount to the wall. And, you should use the outermost holes on the mount...theyre 16 apart and that coinsides with the distance between stud centers. A word of caution...if mounting to drywall, you should always find the studs, and then this mount should be screwed to the wall studs. Your TV might not seem as if it weighs much, but it can creat a lot of force when its pulled away from the wall, and unsupported drywall will not handle the forces generated by moving and adjusting your TV over and over. Just my observations. Buy one.

Greater than one weekThis mounting bracket was used in my office to mount a TV that would be used as both a monitor and a TV. As such I needed it to be able to pull from the wall and rotate at least 45 deg. It does this beautifully. The mounting hardware that was included has everything that you can need to mount this on 16 studs. Having said that it will NOT work on stud widths greater than 16. The kit included 2 levels. One was a small bullet level and the other just a bubble level. The bubble level had double sided tape that could be removed and installed on a wall template. You would then use the wall template to mark your drill locations. Excellent system. The bracket itself is very sturdy and the small TV that I mounted on it is WAY under the weight load for a bracket of this quality. I would certainly purchase this again if needed.

> 3 dayMD2380 - Well made, good material. It came with some TV mounting screws and spacers that worked well for 32 Samsung, 200x200, M8. The dual arms give a solid feel as it moves forwards/backwards, left/right, horizontal angles effortlessly. There is some vertical tilt by way of a allen wrench/set screw. Installation was fairly simple, and there is a YouTube video also. Instruction template was missing adhesive tabs to hold while checking level/marking drill holes(just use a bit of tape). Level included. You are going to want to use some type of ratchet and socket for the lag bolts. Oh and a second person to support the mount while starting the bolts. While it came with the right screws and spacers for my TV, I did also purchase and would recommend their MD5756 Mounting Hardware Kit. Can use on other Monitor/TV installations. The TV mount brackets hang over the top of the mount and have vertical screws on the bottom to keep the tv in place. Also came with three Velcro cable wraps. 10/10 would buy it again.

Greater than one weekThis was very easy to install. It comes with a huge variety of bolts and washers so you can use what you need. It moves easily off the wall and you can angle the TV to the left and right. One thing is, if you want to angle the TV up or down, you have to use an Allen wrench to adjust the bolts on the back then tighten them again. Another thing that presented a problem is that there is only a certain amount you can move the TV left or right on the mounting bracket. So if you want to use studs, you may have trouble centering your tv. We used heavy duty wall anchors that luckily we had at home but be prepared that you may run into trouble if you want the TV in a very specific spot. Other than that, its a great product.

26-11-2024This is the 4th wall mount Ive installed for personal use. Mounted a 65, 50 lb TV with this mount. Pic 1 shows the nice mounts for the back of the TV, 2 long vertical rails that hook on the wall mount, each has a long cap screw that screws up to lock it to the wall mount. The tilt feature is controlled by cap screws at the top of the mount and has a nice range of movement. Pic 2-3 show the top and bottom mount rails, the center hole is a perfect circle, it comes with 4 lag screws to mount it, I added a 5th starting with the center top for the correct height and center for the wall, which allowed me to easily level the mount and mark the four secure points. I left the 5th lag bolt in just for extra strength since I live in Earthquake area. Pic 4 shows how far the TV can pull away from the wall and be angled for viewing from other positions. The mounts moves easily and you can still feel how solid it is, extremely please with this mount and for the cost it is a solid value.

> 3 dayThis mount is awesome! The instructions, template, and ease of use is great! Figuring out which mounting screws and washers for the tv were was the hardest part (but since every TV is a little different, this is to be expected). The only recommendation to the manufacture is add at least an inch more to the wall mounting plate for imperfect stud spacing. In short, measure your stud spacing before buying to make sure it is 16 or less and you will be golden! If your spacing is greater than 16, it will depend on how handy you are, read below for some insight. The reason being, stud spacing is not going to be exact. This is just the nature of construction. As you can see in my pictures, I had to angle the lag bolts on one side because the studs were just over 17 apart (this is where the wife wanted...so had to make it work!). This is no fault of the product bought, just how house construction can be. Another option, for stud spacing greater than 16, would be to install some horizontal wooden slats from stud to stud to secure the wall mount to with the lag bolts. Only downside to this is it will stick out farther from the wall.

27-11-2024Comes with everything to install it (except the tools, of course). Comes with screw options to fasten the mounting bracket to the tv, and the mount to wood wall studs or concrete. I would definitely buy again.

> 3 dayThis is the second dream mount I’ve purchased! Great quality and they supply you with the supplies needed to mount in a variety of ways. The tilt feature helps greatly if you have your tv mounted higher and need to tilt it down for better visibility

> 3 daysuper fast shipping! & the box it came it was so easy to take the mount out of. the instructions were clear including the tools you need. i loved that the mount already came put together and all you have to do it put it up wherever it is that you want it. i love that it has a stencil to give you an outline as to where you are to put the screws in. i had to put a piece of wood on the wall first, the same size as the mount and then put the mount on top of it because the wall it was placed on was above a chimney. so the wall in some areas had wood but some it didnt, so you know just for more security. To mount the tv was the easiest part. you can lower the way the 2 handles in the back of the tv are screwed so it can either be high or lower. so be careful how high you mount the wall mount if your tv is big, mine is 55 inches. so once i lowered the handles in the back of the tv to the last holes and then mounted it, it was perfect. it frame above the chimney.
