I normally do not write reviews. But with product I definitely wanted to share my experience. So as far as mourning it is pretty straight forward and comes with everything you need. I would definitely suggest investing in a stud finder(even just the cheap one with a magnet that detects nails works fine). Here is where I messed up and a 100% on me. I centered the mount both vertically and horizontally on the wall. But where I messed up is I did not take into consideration the brackets where not centered on the back or my tv. This cause my tv to hang a little higher than what I would have liked(just a few inches higher than eye level). After giving it a couple of weeks it was still bothering me slightly. Here is where the product absolutely turned into a 5 star review for me. I googled the customer service number, and on the first try I actually got a real person. I described my problem, and the lady said don’t worry bout it, it actually happens quite a bit. She offered to send me some different brackets(I believe I these brackets actually come with the bigger tv mount) but since these brackets are a lil longer it allowed the tv to actually drop maybe 2-3 inches. Which is exactly what I needed and now my tv sits eye level, and I did not have to remount the wall mount, thus I did not have the re hang the mount and did not have patch any holes in the wall. The customer service rep actually send the tv brackets for me for free!! They didn’t even charge me shipping or an extra fee. The mistake was totally on me and they helped me out. So in closing a couple of things to take into consideration 1. Ensure you get a stud finder and mount it on the studs with the provided lag bolts (I used two additional heavy duty dry wall anchors in the middle just for additional support) 2. Measure twice drill once. Ensure you take into consideration how the brackets fit on the back of the tv( ie If they are centered or not. 3. What I did to help visualize the tv on the wall is to cut out a piece of cardboard the size of your tv and tape it on the wall and that will help give your your mounting height. 4. For the most part you can do this with one person, but definitely suggest two people when you lift the tv to the brackets 5. Definitely use the spacers and saftey mounting lock to keep the tv secure

Let me just start by saying the quality is awesome! Right out of the box, the paint on every surface of every component was flawless. The metal was rounded off and no jagged edges. The installation instructions were very easy and I had my Samsung 60 tv mounted in no time. There is an included template with a stick on bubble level and I used painters tape to attach it to the wall, after using my stud finder to mark center on 2 of the studs in my wall. After I had the template taped up and perfectly level, I drilled the pilot holes then the larger holes into the studs. The template was dead on to drill into the studs. Next up is putting the mount on the wall. The lag bolts included are ridiculously overkill and I have full confidence in this mount. I pulled on the mount with a good bit of weight. The lag bolts are probably 3 long and 1/2 in diameter. I ran them down with an impact driver and it was struggling. I had to torque them with a 1/2 ratchet. I said to my self, wow.... thats not going anywhere!!! Once the mount was on the wall, I began assembling the mounts to the back of the tv. They come with multiple washer, spacers, bolts, etc to adapt to your TV. In my case, my tv has a slight curve on the back housing and I needed the longest bolts and the thickest spacers. Once I had the mounts on the back of the TV all I had to do was lift this huge awkward tv, but no matter, the mounts are super easy to use. The top of the mounts on the TV attaches to the bars on the wall mount simply hangs there. With my oddly spaced wall/studs, I had to slide the tv on the mount all the way to the right to center above my entertainment center. Once the I had it situated, all I had to do was flip the locking tabs up on the bottom of the mounts and insert the screws to lock it onto the mount. Ive had the TV mounted for days and it shows absolutely no signs of coming off the wall by itself! Id almost bet I could sit on this mount and it wouldnt budge. Dont spend big money on a mount, go for this one! Put the money you save towards a sound bar, led backlights for your tv, a new entertainment center, or anything else. I also recommend purchasing an in-wall wiring solution. The only wire I wasnt able to hide is the optical cable for my sound bar because it was too short to run from my entertainment center to my TV. However, it will suffice once I mount my soundbar to my tv.

Great mount for 55in tv.

Where did the 5th star go???? Wall bracket, needs to be wider. Many wall mounts these days are installed over fireplaces. Sometimes the studs are not placed 16 on center secondary to the fireplace chimney or flue, or for whatever other reason, and have to be spaced slightly wider than 16 on center. My fault for not recognizing the spacing of my studs for the intended location, but the manufactures fault for not anticipating variances in stud spacing. I could have just sent it back, but I decided that $50 for a mounting bracket was too good of a deal to pass up and was time for me to think outside the box. Well I wasnt going to give up on the location for where the TV was going to be mounted, so I had to fabricate a wall mount extension piece. I went to Home Depot, got a 36 metal bar, sawed that sucker in half, drilled several holes, mounted it to the back of the wall mount bracket with carriage bolts/ nuts/ flat & lock washers, and mounted the sucker. Because I was being cheap, and only wanted to buy one piece of steel bar as opposed to two, I had to offset the 18 bars to just one side. In doing such it left a portion of the mounts wall side bracket without a bar piece, or otherwise a void where the bar should also extend. To fill that void, I used two flat washers that (when placed together) were the same thickness as the extension bar. (I hope this is clear, and not too confusing). All I am saying, is that will a little extra time, patience, effort, and a trip to the Home Depot (or wherever sells flat steel bars), someone could fab an extension (highly not recommended secondary to safety and work involved). If you are one of those with limited experience with this, I wouldnt suggest this for safety reasons, and would just look for an accommodating wall mount for your specific application. Additionally, another ding I would hit this mount on for not having is the lack of including or having a thread locker on the multiple screws included. Remember this is a movable mount, and if its is the owners intention to move the TV around quite a bit, you might want to consider applying a liquid thread locker to the metal on metal threads before torquing the screws down (again, for safety sake). All in all not that bad. I would not recommend this mount for anyone who either does not know their stud spacing for the intended location, and/ or for for known stud spacing greater than 16 on center. If I knew that I would have to fab something like I did before I bought the bracket, there would be no way I would have bought this bracket. Do yourself a favor (measure first, dont be a dumbo like me, and be persuaded by the inexpensive nature of the item) << However, very well made from what I can tell. Wally World sell similar brackets for $149!!!! Not sure on the wall side bracket accommodations, but I would have bought that quickly if I knew that it would fit and the Mounting Dream would not. Good luck

Definitely a sturdy mount! Far better then most currently available. I had to build a custom fiberglass mount only because the area in which I mounted the tv had studs oddly 18 apart on center

Seems exceptionally sturdy and was easy enough to install with a 12in level and a drill with a nut driver. Swings away from the wall to give plenty of space for plugging in cables and doesnt show the slightest sign of sagging with a 60in TVs weight. The length of the mounting rails made it possible to secure it to 2 studs for an optimal and worry-free installation.

I’ve mounted 4 TVs with Mounting Dream products and they’re the best mounts I’ve ever used. Installation is extremely straightforward with the provided directions and almost every combination of part you need is there. (If you’re mounting to concrete, go ahead a get the concrete anchors prior to install) Great product and I tell everyone about it when they see how nicely my tv moves around on the wall!

Not sure if it was the mount or the way my apartment complex has their studs, but the mount wasn’t wide enough. If we used this mount we would have only been able to go into one stud instead of 2. I had to return

This mount is one of the best purchases I have made on Amazon. The mount is excellent quality. I read many reviews before I bought this one. The product is as good as any product I have purchased in many years. The metal has tight tolerances and fit together with no slop. The capture nuts are a step above what others use and make assembly a breeze. The engineer who designed it made it very easy to assemble with instructions that take into consideration every conceivable configuration. The parts are all numbered and sealed in plastic strips, the instructions show pictures of the steps, along with the number of the part they are describing. Each step is clearly defined. To start they have you take the two screws holding the two pieces of the assembled bracket apart. Then you stick the small plastic level they include onto the template and tape the template to the wall, making sure you use the correct template markings for your particular wall stud spacing, I.E. 16, 18 inches between studs, drill pilot holes into the studs. take the template down and put the wall half of the mount on the wall, mount that half of the bracket, attach the TV half of the bracket to the back of the TV , using whatever configuration fits your TV mounting holes, my case I had to use the square frame version, because the 4 holes on the back of my TV(Samsung) were spaced quite a distance apart. After I attached the now assembled frame to the TV I waited for help to hang the TV onto the wall mounted bracket, If I was merely still in my 60s I would have done it by myself as the bracket has a lip that holds the TV bracket to the wall bracket giving you support while you put the two previously removed screws back into the bracket, securing the two halves of the bracket together but my wife insisted I wait for help lifting the 65 inch TV onto the bracket. That was the only help I used in this installation. I am very impressed with this bracket and I will definitely use additional ones to mount other TVs in other rooms. I feel very strongly this company makes very high quality products designed with the consumer in mind and they get my vote for product of the year. The picture shown as a sample is the configuration I used for my particular TV, other TVs may use the bracket without the square frame required for my Samsung TV, the bracket has mounting holes and bolts to mount the smaller bracket directly to the TV. The also include a lot of spacers, screws and standoffs in case your TV has shorter or longer mounting holes. They took great care to make it as easy as possible to use. The movement is firm and yet easy to move when access to the back of the TV is needed.

This is just what I was looking for to hang a 58” TV on the wall. The product was packaged well, the delivery was made overnight, the instructions were on point and the installation went very smooth. I would highly recommend this product.
