5 Stars Solid mount.
I purchased this mount for my Panasonic TC-P65V10. The instructions where simple to follow and so was the assembly. Attaching the mount to the tv was straight forward. Hanging the bracket/mount and tv on the wall took little time. I feel extremely secure that the plasma display will not be going anywhere until I take it down. I’m very satisfied with this Sanus wall mount and would recommend this to everyone who wants a well built sturdy mount.

4 Stars Works with 65″ TV with adapter
Needed an adapter to get this to work, but now that I have it together, it works very welll

5 Stars Solid wall mount
This Sanus mount solidly supports a 60 in plasma. Its flexible mounting options allow for many sizes of flat panels. I used the tilt mount & it works great.

4 Stars couldn’t ask for much more but then, I guess I could
Easy to follow instructions and incredibly sturdy. My only complaint would be that my TV must have been in the 2% range in that I was not able to hit three studs AND keep the TV centered on my wall. I’m about 2″ off to the right which 98% of the population won’t even notice but I have to nag about something. Oh yea, it’s really heavy too (see “incredibly sturdy” comment above) so I did need an extra set of hands when bolting it to the wall. I will say this, if you’ve never hung more than a collage of 4 x 6 prints of your kids on the wall, hire someone to hang your TV. There are plenty of home theater installers out there that you can hire to do this and most will have some nice tricks to hide all the wires that still need to be run to the TV. If you’ve bought a nice big plasma or LCD, spend the extra money and get it installed correctly. You’ll be much happier.

5 Stars Sanus TV wall mount
Great sturdy product. Easy to mount only CON is the price. $ 135.00 is a little steep for this wall mount. There are a lot of other brands that are just as good for a lot less.

5 Stars Economically speaking, probably the BEST Sanus wall mount out there
You can’t beat this wall mount for the price. We loved the first one so much, we bought the same mount for our larger TV.

Mounting is a snap; I mounted first TV (32″ Westinghouse) using VESA pattern in about 30 minutes with my drill, rachet set, and level. I got the second TV (37″ VIZIO) up in the same time with the addition of a SANUS 400×200 mm adapter plate.

For a mount that mounts into a single wall stud, it can hold very heavy TVs. The design allows you to swivel it as needed; it stays in place once locked.

Overall, a great mount.

5 Stars Great Product!
Very easy to install, Holds my 26″ LCD in any position I put it. Looks very nice installed with TV in place.

5 Stars Great sturdy mount
This is a great, sturdy mount for my 32″ LCD. Installation was quite easy, taking less than an hour from opening the box to having it complete. I plan to purchase another one for my bedroom.

5 Stars Works beautifully, but a very small caveat for the obsessive
I have to admit I was worried about all that would be involved in mounting a 32″ LCD using this mount, but instead the entire process went amazingly quickly. In fact, the longest part of the install was marking the studs on the wall.

The mount is completely adjustable and I appreciate the small amount of tilt the mount allows in case in the process of attaching the lag bolts the mounting plate gets pulled slightly off-plumb. It’s incredibly sturdy and I have no concerns about it holding and lasting the life of multiple TVs.

Do be sure you know where on the mount you want the included cable clips, as they will snap off rather than come out of the holes – but nothing that can’t be worked around with regular cable ties.

The kit literally comes with everything you will likely need save for a stud finder. All lag bolts and all attachment bolts to the TV itself are included.

The one very small caveat is that the horizontal plumb of the attached TV will vary a little depending upon how far the arm is extended, so if you adjust the TV to be level with the arm fully extended it will be ever so slightly tilted when you push the arm back up against the wall. However you’ll only notice with the use of a level – it’s not an issue in real-world use.

Note also that there are TWO allen wrenches included with the mount, and the slightly larger silver one is the one you need to adjust the TV’s horizontal tilt once it’s attached. I was frustrated that Sanus included the “wrong size” allen wrench in the hardware kit until I found the second wrench – duh.

In short, I can’t recommend this mount highly enough.

5 Stars Awesome!
Mount is fantastic. Fits my 40 inch Samsung. The best thing is that the mount moves making it good for any type of viewing.

5 Stars Easy to install
As long as you follow the instructions you cant go wrong. The mount feels strudy and I even hung from it. I weigh about 220lbs. Great Buy

5 Stars Worked great for us
We wanted to mount our flat screen on the wall. Most of the other likely candidates were $100 or higher. There were a few that were quite a bit less, but I was concerned about how well they would hold up.

If you are not fussy about how much it will tilt or side angles, and want something that is sturdy and economical, this is the mount for you. It was easy to put up, all the parts we needed were in the package. The tv, which listed the vesa number for the mount, fit the mount. We were able to attach the mount to two studs, and I feel confident in the strength of this attachment.

5 Stars Service was outstanding
I ordered the wrong bracket for my television and feared the worst when i tried to return it, i figured i would get the runaround with the shippment, refund etc. I was pleasantly suprised when i contacted Plasma Concept and Spoke to an actual person (Dan Aab) and was told how to ship the item. Not only did i get a phone call to let me know that they had received the item returned and my card would be credited, he also made sure i got the right bracket and in a timely fashion (the next day) Now that’s what i call service! Great job Dan!!!!!!!!11

5 Stars Very pleased
This tv mount is very easy to install and fits perfectly on my TV. You only need to screw it onto one stud so distance in between studs is not an issue. Would recommend. Great value

4 Stars Great product, sturdy and adequate !
Security lock hard to get to, but one time install and you’re done. No questions about whether or not it will hold TV because I put the heaviest recommended 37 inch TV on this thing and it took it fine. Great look and tilt feature helps for future connections.

VideoSecu Black Tilt Wall Mount Bracket for Vizio 42 inch HDTV Plasma LCD TV with Free 6 FT HDMI Cable

This Flat Panel Mount Fits most TVs or Monitors from 37 up to 63 inch (check VESA and weight). It Built-in bubble leveler. The mount can be mounted to any studs up to 30″ apart. Will This mount Fit my Plasma TV?
Always check the weight of your TV. It must be less than 165 lbs.
Check your TV’s owner’s manual for mounting guidelines. You’ll see the word “VESA” followed by numbers, which tells you how far apart the holes on the bracket or TV are in millimeters. For example, VESA 200×100 means that the holes are in a rectangle, with two sides measuring 100mm (about 4 inch) and two sides measuring 200mm (about 8 inch). You should be able to find that information in the owner’s manual, or you can measure the holes yourself . If the vertical distance is within 18″ inch, horizontal distance within 28″ inch, then this mount will fit.
Next, measure your screen is wider and taller than the mount, otherwise the mount can not be hidden behind the TV. Your TV should be at least 32 inch wide. This mount is VideoSecu brand. Please report to Amazon.com if you recieve a mount without VideoSecu logo.

4 Stars Solid mount / hard to center
Overall this is a great quality mount. I have installed articulating arms before on everything from a 22″ to a 50″ flat panel. The arms are hard to keep level as you move the TV around. They usually sag a bit and look just a bit off level. Now that I have found Omnimount, I will try to use it from now on. I am pretty good at figuring out installs like this, but the directions were pretty good for the less than engineerish person. There are plenty of pictures and diagrams. I recently mounted a 32″ flat in a bedroom. I am always weary of mounting expensive or heavy things using any kind of drywall anchor. This one I tried to pick the best stud that would put the TV closest to center of the wall. Swinging it to both sides to see which was better, I had to settle on a few inches off center. The problem is the wall mount part uses one vertical member to bolt to the wall. Other flat mounts (tilts up and down only) span studs with 2 to 4 anchor points. You can usually catch a stud on one or both sides, then the carriage (part the TV mounts to) can slide on that wall mounted portion. This lets you center the TV perfectly.

If you can have faith in a hollow wall anchor, or even better, have the luck to have solid material like plywood built behind your wall, and you can mount the vertical member perfectly, this is the best mount I’ve seen.

5 Stars Absolutely Perfect
