Lots of components with this bracket to suit the TV options covered.
Not 100% on the up / down tilt variations (maybe installed incorrectly)
Instructions where not clear, but I went on you tube for a how to video. Very easy after that.
It’s doing its job
Very Strong and fits well. Instruction a little hard to follow, but you will get there
Does the job, but needs an additional pair of hands to install. I have a 65″ tv and could not have fitted it without help.
*Could be easier to adjust to correct tilt angle, had to set tilt to face the wall as the tv would lean forward when set level..( Not sure this was the weight of the tv or quality of the bracket.)
* Quite stiff to reposition when fitting HDMI cables.
You get what you pay for.!!! Not much money for reasonable quality.
It was a bit of a puzzle to figure out at first as the instructions are a bit confusing, but it does the job.
This bracket is quite sturdy and I put it straight with a level on the wall but the TV is not straigh
4 stars because even though the level is correct, the tv is a bit side ways, we tried everything but could not fix. Overall it’s good.
Bracket is easy to put together and easy to fix yo the wall. Do open bracket completely before fitting to wall as you won’t be able to completely screw bolt into the wall otherwise. TV is now very easy to move in and out and easy to put at an angle.
Very strong, tricky to install, value for money but too stiff to move. Got it on lower price so giving 4 stars for the sturdiness and does the job.
I was very pleasantly surprised to find this bracket to be extremely sturdy and has virtually no play whatsoever in the arms when installed on the wall.
My LG TV is really quite heavy and I was expecting some unwanted movement, but there is none.
The instructions are basic, but you get all you need from the picture on the box so anyone with a few brain cells can build this easily.
I can’t vouch for the fixings that attach it to the wall as I installed T-Track into routed recesses in the plaster allowing me to raise and lower the bracket in the future should I need to get a new TV.
I got this as an open box and unused therefore paying a good tenner less than the normal price. The box was indeed open, but everything was there and in mint unused condition.
I would highly recommend this product over Everything I have ever used previously.
It’s overall a good wall mount, I put a 55” tv on it and it’s held well. With such size screen it doesn’t turn very far is the only criticism if you need one that pulls out and fully turns
It’s alright but when putting it on the wall one of the screw broke so defo some China crap right there but overall we pulled it off and got it on the wall
Wasn’t too sure what to expect when I ordered this item, but I do know I expected a better installation manual.
Took us ages to work out how to install this bracket to the wall, which screws to use as they were not either numbered or lettered accordingly.
It came with various different screws to install with for different size TV, which is great but they weren’t easy to identify. The manual was even worse and the diagrams wasn’t clear enough, it was a like a guessing game, which I didn’t have time for.
Ultimately, once we managed to figure it out and install it, I have to say, this bracket is very well built! Can’t fault that. I feel comfortable that my TV is well secured and won’t fall of the wall unless someone literally tries to pull it off, even then I doubt it would be easy to do.
I would highly recommend this bracket, just be ready to play some games first with the installation manual.
Quick summary. Brilliant for the money and fact that it can support a 60Kg+ TV.
Choose this bracket as needed to do turn and pullout movements holding a heavyweight 2008 Sony TV (but still only half of possible weight that can be supported). The bracket itself is thick metal and hence heavy and comes with 6 substantial wall bolts and fixings that can be positioned to spread the load over a larger area, rather than being all close together which some bracket designs do. Instructions are good but could be better with expanded diagrams to show which way round the VESA bracket framework should be assembled on the larger mounting sizes. There is a helpline (normal rate number) in Hull but didn’t need to use it. Lifting the TV onto the wall bracket was easy with 3 locating pins but needs 2people to do. Overall, bracket mounted on wall, VESA framework attached and hung on the wall in about an hour. Would definitely buy again.
Firstly “bad” things, it was heavy! So made marking the holes difficult.
I had to give the joints a quick squirt with WD40, they were abit to stiff and one had minor squeak.
Good points!
It is steady and strong! I was more worried the wall wouldn’t hold!
It came with a magnetic level which was perfect for the job!
It had various size fixings for all sorts of TVs.
The instructions were not SUPER clear, but paying close attention to details, you can see how it all goes. But it’s not as easy as “IKEA” or “lego” instructions.
Currently it’s holding a 75″ Samsung tv for reference and size.
The materials used appear to be of good quality with a thick fold strengthened backplate. The welds on the arms are nice and even with no blow-through and the hinges have no wobble in them.
The wall plugs supplied for the mounting bolts are a little disappointing. When I mounted the backplate I rounded straight through three of them with no effort. I replaced all six out of caution with grey Rawl plugs and it holds 115kg on bloke on the plate. I didn’t fancy testing the arms at that!
It doesn’t even break a sweat with a 65″ TV.
Highly recommended!
I’ve recently refurbished my basement and got a 75″ LG TV to go onto a stud wall that’s away from the cavity wall.
When I bought the bracket, it sat in its box for a month whilst the work was being completed. When it came to actually putting it up. I lost the balls to do it myself and decided to pay someone to come round and put it up for me. I did this as cheap insurance because if it went tits up and fell off the wall, they’d have to pay for it. So glad I did!
The fitter said that it was a pretty easy bracket to assemble (I agreed as I was hovering around watching him do it)
I only helped him actually put the TV on the wall because it was clearly a 2 man job.
It now sits on the wall perfectly and I couldn’t be happier with it.
Instructions aren’t great, mainly due to the screws/washers etc not being labelled but wasn’t too hard to assemble. Depending on the weight of your TV (mine is 47.5kg) it can take 3-4 people to lift and get the TV onto the bracket and fix in place. Once on the wall, it seems secure although the arms are very stiff and currently takes two people to bring the TV away from the wall and push back but that could also be partly due to the sheer size of the 85″ screen mounted. I’m hoping this will ease up in time. Overall I’m happy with the bracket given it’s price.
The bracket itself is heavy duty, strong and sturdy. Six fixing screws and wall plugs are provided, and require 90mm x 10mm holes in solid walls, or 4mm pilot holes in wood. A half-inch or 13mm spanner is required.
The instructions assume you already know how the thing fits together. For VESA 200×200 and smaller just the ‘square’ mounting plate is required.
For VESA 200×300 or 200×400 the two E bars are fitted horizontally top and bottom (I also fitted the two F bars as strengtheners but may not be required).
For anything larger upto VESA 400×600 the other 4 bars are fitted in pairs top and bottom to create long horizontals, and here the two F bars are required as jointing and strengthening pieces. The two E bars are then fitted vertically at the width required
Once fitted the TV can easily be moved around, tilted and swivelled to make sure it’s properly level.
The only slight niggle is that when finally hanging the TV on the wall you have to locate just one bolt into a cut-out. No issues with it being able to take the weight, but you might need someone to help guide it into place.
Overall excellent bracket especially for the price, and will definitely buy again if the need arises.
The mount is sturdy and looks as if it will last a long time. My complaint is that the instructions are terrible. It took me twice as long as I thought it would to assemble, just because the very small pictures of parts already assembled do not help the DIY person at all. I do all my own car mechanics and it still took me a good time to work out how all the bits FI together, that screws are all in a strip of thin cellophane, which had broken in some places spreading screws all through the packet. None of the sections holding the screws were given the corresponding letters as the plan. Just terrible set of instructions spoils the quality of the produc
So – this bracket is sturdy and feels like it could hold a much heavier screen than the 65 oled I put up – BUT if you are the sort of person that struggles with Ikea type flat pack instructions then the assembly of the elements attached to the back of the screen may well throw you a bit – it was a bit of trial and error on which bit went where for a 300X300 vesa mount. However, when I got that sorted out it was fine and gives the expected support and mobility I was after. Sturdiness, Value for money and doing what it says on the box – 100% value. Enclosed instructions let it down – but still happy with the purchase.
I was skeptical when I was throwing my 55inch TV on a swivel mount. I couldn’t possibly see how it would be sturdy enough for such a large TV. Especially at such a good price.
However, I was pleasantly proved wrong. The bracket went on the wall with ease. All the instructions were clear and precise. It swings out with ease and very very stable.
This would have got 5 stars if they had manufactured a pan tilt into the bracket. Although, I knew what I was buying from the description. So based on that, this thing is spot on.
Recommended.
The design considerations to make this product suitable for a wide range of vesa sizes make the installation much more complicated than a dedicated unit. 1 item needs to be attached to the wall but building the bracket on the back of the tv required the assembly of 9 separate metal pieces from instructions that my 20/20 vision son struggled to interpret. Add to this a nut with an off-centre thread (pictured) and a missing locking nut (substituted with a plastic grommet, pictured) and the installation was much more difficult than necessary. Amazon options for a faulty item seem to be limited to ‘return item’ so worked around the missing/faulty parts. Haven’t actually got it on the wall yet though…
The bracket has two swivel arms which make it very steady and appears very reliable and extremely well made.
Also has some plastic locking loop holders to enable cable management.
In my case the house is over 100years old and the walls consist of fairly thick layer of very fragile plaster over bricks.
As such the supplied screws did not infuse confidence and had to use more substantial bolts and rawl plugs, the bracket is heavy and combined with weight of the tv needs good fasteners to achieve the weights specified, so please choose the correct fasteners for the wall structure, also be aware of how much weight structures such as plaster board can carry, always safety first.
Very pleased, highly Recomended!
One suggestion is please include some much heavier and longer bolts and plugs (4 off) not expensive and helps having to buy them separately.
It swivels easily but honestly, you’ll get it in the position you want then leave it. Mine is in a corner (hence the need for the adjustment) but still allows the TV to be placed flat against the wall.
Very happy and I think you would be too.
The bracket is made from heavy gauge steel where it’s needed and is nicely welded. There is no play in any of the joints making the whole thing feel very stable.
This becomes important when your about to hang your expensive new telly precariously from the wall!
The fittings kit is quite comprehensive, the wall fixings are off a decent quality. I usually find myself digging into my own collection of fixings with things like these are the supplied items usually don’t seem up to the job so to have trustworthy fixings included is a huge bonus. There a a large amount of fittings for securing the telly to the bracket which were all that was needed to mount my Sony xf9005 to the bracket.
I ended up using 5 bolts and plugs to hold the bracket to the wall, 3 at the top and 2 at the bottom and was able to hang from the bracket with no issues (other than sore hands). I’m quite confident that the TV will be fine.
8mm hss bit was all that was needed to bore into the breezeblock wall and secure the bracket.
Assembling the bracket to fix to the TV was a little fiddly and hanging the TV took 2 people but that’s more due to the size of the telly than the design of this bracket.
Once everything is screwed together and the TV is hung, there is enough rotation in the bracket to correct any leveling issues and the angle of the TV relative to the wall can easily be changed.
The bracket allows the TV to be moved quite a distance away from the wall for easy access to hdmi ports etc on the rear. My 65″ is too wide to allow the TV to fit at 90* to the wall but that wasn’t why I purchased the bracket so it doesn’t matter. However, if your looking to install the TV and be able to pull it out perpendicular to the wall then this might be of use to know.
There’s not much to say about this bracket really. The instructions could be slightly clearer but I’ve seen far worse. The bracket is reassuringly substantial and offers great value for money.
*slight update after a year*
Well, nothing has broken and the TV still resides on the wall so all good there. It’s been pulled out and pushed back countless times. Only slight niggle for me is that the screen doesn’t sit quite level with the wall but I overcame this with some washers.
It only became noticeable where the TV was flush mounted in a false wall.
Still happy with the bracket and still happy that I didn’t spend considerably more money on something similar for absolutely no need whatsoever.
I did wonder what I had bought when I saw the size and felt the weight. The parcel contained a range of fittings for both attaching to the TV and the wall. My 37 inch Panasonic was to be fitted to a brick and plaster single party wall so I only need to drill 4 holes using a number 10 (3/8″) masonry drill. Although I did have a look at the double sided A4 “manual” I did not find it helpful so reverted to common sense. Care needs to be taken when measuring both the TV mounting points and the bracket to determine the required position of the TV on the wall and this took more time the the actual mounting. I suggest the use of a small masonry bit to drill the initial hole and to ensure that it is well into the chuck to avoid giving the neighbours a nasty surprise, then to use the number 10 to open to the correct diameter. Take care not to trap the vertical tilt mounting bracket when fitting it to the TV (as I did). I have to say that I am impressed with the mounting kit and the operation of the swivel especially given the very reasonable price paid.
