East Install, with Great Flexibility in Use
These mounts are outstanding. Here's why: The mount itself is incredibly well-made. The assembly, the welds, and the finish are all top-notch. There is a lot of thought in the design. These are affordably priced but thoughtfully executed from the inclusion of. small level, to generous mounting options for the TV, and features such as adjustment for out-of-truth install. That's nice. I had no issues installing it other than working out the height. I did not fully follow the instructions as I did not want a 75" TV hanging around while I installed the mount. However, I would have installed it once had I done what the instructions said! I managed to install it the first time too high. Even after lowering it 3 inches, it still partially occludes the center channel speaker. That's my problem, not theirs. But if you do as they say and mount the TV to the hangers first, you will have. better idea of where the bottom of the TV will be, and so from there, you can adjust your height. So, long story short... follow the instructions! Haviong said that I used vaseline on the securing bolts, which was a good thing as they are tight to drive into the studs. Here is the only area where I can level some criticism. The 13mm lag bolts are a tad off standard size, and so they were a little damaged by the reuse. They are a little soft. Just be aware and use a good quality socket set to install to minimize the impact of sub-par sizing. Also, make sure to drill the holes to the recommended depth or you will struggle to close the last bit as you tighten them to the mount. I did not have that issue, but this is not the first TV mount I have installed! Also, make sure to use a good-quality stud finder. I use a Bosch sensor, had it for about 12 years and it works just great. You may want to review the tool list before you get started on this job to make sure you have everything. This mount is a little different from the smaller 8-12-16-inch mount. To achieve the mounting size, it uses fold-out ears on the track. That's pretty novel. So the package is the same size as the smaller mount. At first, I thought Amazon had sent me the wrong mount as I expected a larger box! The one issue you may face with such a large track is the wall uneveness. My wall has a 1/4" deflection that is difficult to adjust to when installing. However, after bolting all four lag bolts in, it was snug to the wall. The assembly for the TV mount is very straightforward. You assemble the two cross braces from four discrete parts. There are two plastic trim pieces at the end, which is a nice touch and makes it more finished. Once this is done, you check the install for strength to make sure it and the wall will take your TV. Then you get the fun job of mounting the TV to those installed cross braces. We left the TV safety packing strips on the front of the TV as it is very easy to break the screen when installing it by excess pressure in your hand grip with the TV (mine weights 62lb.) I suggest afterwards that you keep those with the TV and reattach them when you have to remove the TV in the future. These help avoid compression fracture of the screen. One issue with any of these mounts as you try to attach a large screen is that the mount tends to move away from you to the wall. So it's a little dance to get it mounted. Once installed, make sure the TV mount is over both cross-member rails. Then you flip up the top securing clips and secure these with a small screw. The final steps are setting up the viewing angle and correcting for any level issues. Once we got that all done, we tested the +TV with the screen protector still attached. This allows for quick removal if needed. We only removed that after we had the TV and mount both working to our satisfaction.Once installed, the TV is a breeze to move. One thing to be careful of is you could end up pushing it hard into the wall if you are not careful, and that might be damaging to it or the wall. But its really easy to set up the viewing location within the limits of the mount. Overall, really impressed with everything about this TV mount. Deifnitly recommended. We mounted a Hiisense QD7 75" TV using this specific mount. Installation was straightforward. One really nice thing with this mount is that it's easy to access the rear of the TV to make connections. For me, it's worth paying the extra for this mount for that functionality. 100% recommended. By the way, this supplier is excellent. It was not hard to return the smaller 8-12-16 inch mount when I found the studs in my desired location were 17" on center (one stud!) exactly where I needed to mount the TV. They do supply rails to overcome this, but they would not work in this specific application. Returning them (we bought 2) was a breeze. But I recommend buying this mount instead (the cost difference is minimal) and saving yourself the potential aggregation of the issue shared. It's great when you have a great product and a great supplier on Amazon!Ver másVer menos
