Mounting Dream TV Wall Mounts TV Bracket for Most 42-84 Inch TVs, UL Listed Premium TV Mount Full Motion with Articulating Arms, Max VESA 600x400mm and 100LBS, Fits 16″, 18″, 24″ Studs, MD2296-24K

This mounting system is probably heavier duty than I needed, but that’s NOT a criticism at all. Solidly built, with clear instructions. A nice coating (perhaps powder coating?) so no risk of deterioration/rust. My particular system allows for full turning side to side and pulling out quite substantially. The only aspect that requires a little more tweaking on my part is the vertical angle, and Mounting Dream includes a small wrench to do so if needed (though once you set your vertical angle, I’m not sure it’s necessary to change it). I’ve never needed to change it.One aspect to consider: installation may be daunting for some. You MUST find your studs with a decent finder and plan your install carefully (which a person should do anyway: remember the old adage: measure twice, cut/drill once). Mounting Dream also includes instructions for effective visual placement.Excellent piece: I would highly recommend.

My review is for the following product:Mounting Dream TV Wall Mounts TV Bracket for 42-75 Inch TVs, Premium TV Mount, Full Motion TV Wall Mount with Articulating Arms, Max VESA 600x400mm and 100 LBS, Fits 16″, 18″, 24″ Studs MD2296-24KThe mount came well packaged and was delivered in good condition. When unboxing, it is very evident that this bracket is sturdily designed and made of high quality materials. Hardware was very well marked and nicely packaged so items could be easily identified by letter or number and unwrapped as needed. The instructions were very detailed and easy to understand and follow and all pieces were numbered in their illustrations, a nice touch. There were even two little levels in the package, one with an adhesive backing that can be ‘stuck’ to the installation template, a really ingenious and helpful feature, and an allen wrench. The installation template even has the holes where you mark the position already cut out. Thoughtful. Fasteners were well made and nicely finished to match the bracket coating. The hanging brackets fit well on the back of my 55″ LG TV and there are spacers and different sized fasteners for the different VESA configurations. A detailed explanation of how to use the spacers and different sized screws are in the directions. I would expect even the most experienced installer to be pleased and the novice installer to encounter few problems during installation. The sliding brackets make horizontal centering an easy task, and the vertical tilt on the mount can easily be adjusted without tools. The final position of the TV could be pushed close to the wall which makes the installation even more professional looking.Unpacking, installation, and adjustments took about 45 minutes, with the bulk of time to make measurements and get the mount attached to the wall. Additional tools required were a phillips screwdriver, power drill (for bracket mounting pilot holes) 1/2 inch socket on a 3/8 ratchet, measuring tape, stud finder, and marker.Two thumbs up for a five start product. Would definitely recommend this mount and manufacturer.

If you’ve been looking, I’ll tell you now, this is the one. We had the earlier version of this one a few years ago, and it was great, but I did have to resort to adding a few dimes to get it just perfect on leveling. No need for that here.PROS:- Super sturdy & strong- Extension bar allows offset installation, if studs aren’t centered.- Pivots sideways – both ways- Tilts up and down- Pulls way out from the wall when you need to access the rear, but pushes back to very close to the wall when you want it out of the way.Cons: A little scary to install, if you’ve never done this before.I’ve done a few of these over the years, & THIS is the one. I’d buy this one again without hesitation.FYI: These always look very scary to start, but once you realize that half the hardware is for other options, it’s a lot less scary (they give you all the hardware you need for installing in multiple ways, and with multiple TV setups. You will have a lot of hardware left over.).Basically, it has two brackets. One mounts to studs in the wall, & the second to the back of your TV – separately, so you can lift it up onto the wall bracket like hanging a picture. Simple as that. You just have to find your studs, drill the right size holes – in the * Right Location *, and mount it.You can do it alone, but to lift it up to the wall mount, you’ll want help from a friend. Pretty hard to do that part alone, just due to not seeing the back while you lift it solo. Even a weak friend or child can tell you where to move it, if you don’t have real help on the lifting part. TV’s are surprisingly light nowadays, so even a teenage girl could lift half.They even give you an extension bar, so if your studs don’t align with your placement goals, you can fudge it over quite a bit. Worked great for me.IMPORTANT TIP: Measure the area where you want the TV. We used Painter’s tape to outline the spot, with our table located beneath it, so we had a visual on how big everything was going to be. THEN be sure to MEASURE where the bracket needs to mount, to be sure your TV ends up where it needs to be.In our case, the studs & the TV mount were not dead center, so we mounted the TV bracket onto the back of the TV, then had to figure out where the wall mount needed to be, and lowered the wall bracket enough to account for the lower mounting our Sony TV used, vs another brand. With the tape outline, we easily found the 2 best studs for mounting, even though they were also not centered. We chose the two closest to the centerline. (We had 3 stud choices, if one didn’t work out. Huge TV)Be sure of placement, before you drill those big holes in your studs. You don’t want to do that twice.It’s easier than it sounds, so Good luck! : )

Works well. I wish it was wider. I had to mount steel bars on the wall because this mount cannot span two studs when one stud is in the middle. But I knew that before purchasing. It articulates well and is smooth. Currently holding a 75 inch Sony x90k.

Was just as described. Fast delivery.
