Sorry, but I can understand that I need to have a bunch of tools to install something on the wall, but a 1/2” socket for driving in lag bolts? As a home owner - not a car mechanic - I’ve never needed sockets. Couldn’t you charge me an extra $X and include one that I can put in my impact driver?? I seriously prefer that to having to drive and buy a socket set at Home Depot adding another 50% to the price of mounting the TV. I mean, you included the Allen key...overall, the mount is ok, instructions are so-so in terms of clarity, could definitely be much improved. Now that I have the socket and know how to install, I’d probably buy it again if needed, but it’s still an annoying proposition to have to go get a tool I’ve never previously needed and may never need again.

This is my fourth TV wall mount. By far the simplest system to mount and hang a TV on. Screw the articulating frame to a wall stud with the provided hardware. Screw the separate bracket to the TV VESA holes with the provided hardware. Lift the TV & bracket onto the wall mount, set viewing angles and secure, presto. Strong and secure, DIY difficulty 4 out of 10.

Needed an articulated wall mount for a 43 TV. Looked at a bunch and dismissed them due to either price, design or what appeared to be cheap quality materials. This one checked all the boxes for a TV of that size: single stud mount, big range of motion, extended quite a way from the wall, and, according to other reviewers, quality materials/construction and easy installation. It delivered on every one of those things, including the fact that the design of the part that mounts to the wall, the way the arm folds, and the template provided made it one of the easiest wall mount installs Ive done (which is something like 6-8 now). And the adjustment options for tilt, etc are basic but well-designed. Would have given it 4.5 stars if I could but a couple small cons: - Explanation of which screws/hardware to use on the back of the TV (to attach the mounting brackets) was a little lacking. Id done this before, but if I had no experience, I could see where the instructions would have seemed lacking at that point. - Instructions around Step 2 could have been more clear. Didnt bother me, but if someone wasnt familiar with this stuff they might have had to read things a few times about drywall vs. concrete wall install info. - The unit was very stiff when trying to move it. I fixed this by slightly - and I very slightly - loosening the nuts on the bolts (at the points where the articulated arm bends). Definitely wouldnt want to over-loosen those for a couple reasons, but it was so stiff out of the box that it would have been pretty difficult to move the arm around when everything was mounted.

This is a great product, but only if you know theres a stud dead-center of where you want to mount your TV. I didnt realize this when I purchased it (my fault, not a manufacturing issue) and figured we could live with 6-inch offset from where we wanted the TV. We realized shortly afterward that it just wasnt going to work. Amazon processed the return with only a small return shipping fee that I was responsible for. It was very reasonable by my standards. Other than that, this is a great product with a minimal footprint on the wall itself. Its very adjustable for tilt and extension and comes with the all necessary hardware and such. If I had a stud dead-center on the wall where I wanted the TV, I would have been perfectly pleased with this mount. If you have a stud dead-center on the wall, this is a fantastic mount for you.

Lots of parts.

This swivel mount is OUTSTANDING! It comes with a multitude of different screws, washers, and spacers which makes this kit truly universal. Even came with a mini level! Rated for 60 kilos! Easy to install as long as you have basic knowledge of how to find the stud in the wall. Due to the fact that I was mounting high on a wall in a kitchen. I also installed an outlet next to the mount to avoid wires hanging down from the tv. The rang of motion and ease of movement is fantastic. It also came with small velcro straps to secure the cords and wires to the arms. Im beyond happy with this purchase! If I could give it ten stars I would! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

The mount is well built and appears to work as designed. However, I still dont have it installed yet because they neglect to send you mounting hardware for concrete block walls. They were very responsive and promised to send the remaining hardware in 3-5 business days, but in the meantime the mount sits in its box and my TV is not on the wall. They should include all of the hardware from the beginning.

Great TV bracket. I bought this for the garage where I wanted to mount a 42” monitor high on the wall to have on while working on projects. I love the way it articulates and the fact that I can adjust the tilt of the screen. I will say that adjusting the tilt requires tools so once you set it likely you want to leave it there but adjusting the angle or pulling it out and in is very easy and smooth. If I ever need another mount I would definitely buy another like this.

Good product, and it hasnt dropped my TV yet. Its fairly simple to install compared to some other mounts Ive done. It does come with a very tiny but surprisingly helpful level. it has a tiny magnet that doesnt really stick to much on the level. Im currently using it to hold up a 55 LG tv. Its not the easiest to move, but i ever so slightly loosened some of the nuts, and that allowed it to move more freely. Very easy to adjust the tilts and angles as long as you have a friend helping. I do not like the way it secures the TV however, in that theres two screws that go up into the bracket in order to secure the position, instead of a more proper locking mechanism.

I bought it for my new 32 Sony. The Sony holes were in an awful place, but I managed with outside hardware. The mount unit works perfectly. Maybe a little too tight. But Im happy.
