Side by Side Comparison of: Samsung vs VideoSecu vs VonHaus

I got this on black friday, which is when I hear they use cheaper discount hardware to lower the prices. I've loved mine though, and I haven't had any issues with it. Great picture, and I just use rabbit ears for local OTA channels and a chromecast for Netflix.

This arrived damaged, Amazon quickly replaced it and had it shipped immediately. I returned the damage one two days before the new one arrived. I purchased this for my elderly mother who recently moved to assisted living. I am amazed at the quality of picture. Fits perfectly on an end table. We chose not to hang it as we're responsible for any damage to the walls. Amazon has a photo to determine the distance and size for viewing. I found that very helpful when purchasing. Price is right. My mother and I are very pleased.

Excellent TV. So light weight was easy to install. Picture quality is very good and sound it pretty good too. It set's itself up pretty much plug -n- play! I pushed enter on the remote I think 3 times and she was good to go. I installed this TV in my camper. The thin edges made it possible in the space I had to work with. The light weight made it easy! I got this from Amazon's Used Like New so was a killer deal!

Bought this for my younger son's bedroom. Compared to my older TV in my other son's room, this is fantastic. Size-wise this is so much nicer. It takes up far less room than the other TV (both are 32" tv's). It is very thin and very stable. The picture quality is very good. I would definitely buy this again.

I have this TV hung on my office wall in case of a community emergency or wanting to watch my soap operas. It is a decent picture and a standard 32" size. There is no connectivity, only one HDMI port, and only 720p image, BUT for what i use it for it is awesome. This is a great TV for a child's room or playroom or even the office. IF you are intending to watch movies and videos with great quality, save up and buy the higher end model, but if you just want to relax and watch a show, I highly recommend this TV.

Bought 2...for bedrooms. Picture quality is great. Exactly what I needed.

This wall mount is high quality and very versatile. The basic arms of the mount fit perfectly to our 42" TV, so I would have to assume if you had a larger television the extending arms would just as well. The directions included were easy to follow and all hardware was nicely labeled and included.*Please remember that knowing where your wall studs are or using drywall anchors ensure that the mount is secure.*The mount does offer extension from the wall and the TV moves very easily. My only complaint would be that to angle the TV you must hand adjust and then lock into place making angling the television not always an easy task, but this does ensure more security for your telvision.We also appreciated the level and the HDMI cord that was included with the price. Overall an amazing deal for a quality product that cost upwards of $100 or more in stores.Would definitely buy again and recommend to family and friends.

I used to install TVs for people professionally, so I have used many different mounting systems. I was looking for something cheap, but reliable to hang a 50" LG 50LA6200 LCD TV. I looked at a lot of options both on Amazon as well as elsewhere before settling in this one. I am happy that I did!For starters, this comes with EVERYTHING that you could possible need to hang your TV, with the exception of a #2 phillips head screwdriver and a drill. Included are a complete assortment of screws, bolts and washers (all neatly organized and labeled in individual packets), a double-sided spanner wrench, a very nice magnetic level, and even a 10' HDMI cable. The instructions say to use the "optional" expansion kit for larger TVs. Usually, this is code for "kit not included." I was pleasantly surprised to find that that was not the case here. For once, the "optional" kit was actually included!Installation was a breeze for me, even without instructions since I already know how this works, but I found the instructions relatively easy to follow for those who need them. All of the various configurations for the expansion arms can get confusing, but just try each one until you find the right setup for your TV.** PLEASE NOTE **There is one change to the instructions that I highly suggest, however. The instructions say to drill a 7/32" pilot hole into the stud for each mounting bolt. Then screw the bolt in with a phillips head screwdriver. When I first mounted this (I wound up moving it shortly thereafter), I followed the suggestions for the pilot hole. Sure enough the screw did thread in easily... a little TOO easily. The second hole from the top actually stripped out and I was not putting much force behind the screwdriver at all! When I moved this to the other side of the room, I decided to go with a smaller pilot bit. I used a 3/16" bit instead. Granted, you are not going to thread the bolt in with a screwdriver - you will need a 10mm socket - but doing it this way, those bolts are not going anywhere! You could probably get away with a 13/64" bit, but to really protect your expensive TV, I would want all of the bite I could get!I also found that the inside diameter of one of the washers was a smidge too small for the bolt to go through. I just enlarged it with a round needle file, but since they don't include any spares, if you don't have a file or another washer laying around, you'll need to get one. Just thought I'd throw that out there in the interest of full disclosure.Once this was installed, I was impressed with not only the sturdiness, but also with the complete range of motion. This is fully articulated. You can put your TV pretty much anywhere you want to. The only thing it can't do is move your TV up or down, although you can tilt it to a certain degree.

So I was very skeptical of this product when I first looked at it, lots of people saying it would tear out of the wall shortly after installation and all that. Lemme tell you, they just did it wrong or like complete idiots; you do no use dry-wall mounts for a heavy TV, possibly a lighter TV, and I can not stress the word "Light" enough. No one should be using dry-wall mounts in the first place, they are not reliable... plain and simple.Anyways, back to my experience with the product. I have it mounted above my Xbox One about 4 feet off the ground. I mounted to a stud in the wall and right after that, my roommate who weighs around 150 LBS hung off of it for about 5 seconds at the base and it didn't even budge; now that's a tough wall mount if I ever saw one! I put my 40" Samsung TV on the mount, and I can extend/swivel/angle/tilt it however I want.The gear it comes with is pretty high quality and especially the level. For an add on to the product the level is pretty decent for it's designed purpose. The packaging is well done and the parts are all labeled well and accordingly. Make sure you use washers on the outside of the mount before you put the TV adapter on your TV, they will save you a lot of grief.I've had this wall mount for a month so I felt pretty confident in writing a review. I'll add some pictures to let you know the range of motion as well as how the TV looks how I attached the adapter and the part where it's mounted to the wall. I can sit specifically off to the side and enjoy the TV along, I can turn it to look at my PC area so I can play while I talk to friends on Skype or other chat programs and I can turn it to look at my bed and I can enjoy Neflix or Hulu as I lay in bed, nice and cozy.I hope you all enjoyed my review, it's been a blast and I'll be willing to answer any questions you might have.

Based upon some of the reviews, I mounted support brackets between two studs and using a heavy duty toggle bolts, mounted the wall mount. It went up in about 90 minutes and is solid! Used heavy duty screws to assure it will not fall from the wall.Kit includes level and cable as stated and is great! Articulates out and nice adjustment of the angle. TV looks great!

8/28/2017 UPDATE: The review and the pictures below are accurate for the TV mount I purchased on 01/26/2015. From the comments I am getting for the past 6 months, it seems that the seller might have changed the product since, and my review and pictures might not match the current product. That is not under my control, seller should have created a new listing for the new product but chose instead to use the same listing because of the 19000+ reviews posted. So please don't blame it on me, I'm just a customer that wrote a review to the product I received back in 2015.Original review written on 03/02/2015:Bought it to mount 3 LED TVs (2x65", 1x50") in an office, chose this model mostly because of the lockable feature. I didn't use the included lag bolts because of the poor quality complaints in previous reviews. I didn't want to take the chance to strip the included bolts so I bought 5/16-9 2-1/2 lag bolts from Lowes (item 63396) and a box of 1/4" Toggler bolts (Lowes item 118084). On one of the 65" TVs and the 50" TV, the 2x4 studs were spaced perfectly and I was able to mount them using 4 lag bolts each. On the other 65" TV, the stud was about 2" off center so I put 2 lag bolts in the stud and 4 toggler bolts in the left and right most holes. I put my entire weight (200 lbs) on each mount half way extended and they held up just fine. Here are the pros and cons:Pros:1. Good quality mount2. Ability to adjust the horizontal leveling (plus/minus 6 deg)3. Lockable mount with 5 mm holes. Most pad locks you can find in stores have 6 mm shackle diameter, but I found the Master Lock 131Q has 5 mm locks and it fit just right.4. 10 ft HDMI cable included5. Long arms give you the option of moving the TV in almost any position.Cons:1. There is nothing to stop the TV from sliding from one way to the other on the two horizontal bars. That would screw up the horizontal alignment every time the TV is moved. Not sure how they didn't think about this. I used some black duct tape to prevent that. I could have drilled holes in the horizontal bars and put some screws in but duck tape was faster.2. I wish I could have been able to use zip ties to route the cable on the wall side from the lower side to the upper side or the mount, but there are no holes to get the zip ties in.Very happy with the purchase overall, would buy again in a heartbeat.You can see how it looks with a 65" TV attached in the pictures below.[...].

I mounted a 60" Sharp LED TV to this mount with no problems. I recieved it sooner than expected & it was 98% assembled out of the box. I followed the directions, took the time to do it right & it took about 20 minutes.I always read the negative reviews first & I am baffled as to how people can have problems with this product. This mount is well made & I would recommend it to anyone that is concerned over the reviews stating it sags.The mount can be easily installed by one person as I did below: You may need help to hang your tv on it once it is installed. I am laying this out because of the problems I read about in the other reviews.1. Figure out where your studs are & drive a pin or finish nail on each side of it to be certain where the centers are. Make these small holes about 1/4" above where your mount holes will be drilled. These small holes will be covered by your mount.2. Drill your first pilot hole into the center of the stud & run the first lag bolt & washer through the mount & get it near snug.3. Extend the bracket so you can lean against it.4. While leaning against the mount in a eyed up level position, lay your level on top of the wall bracket & get it level.5. Pull your pencil from behind your ear & mark the second hole which is on the opposite side of your first hole.6. Let it back down & drill the second hole in the center of the stud.7. Move the mount back to the level position & install the lag bolt & washer.8. Tighten the two lag bolts so they are just about crushing the mount into the wall.8. You can now drill your bottom holes & install the lag bolts & washers. Make sure you are in the center of the studs.10. Tighten & retighten all four lag bolts. If these are not tight, you will have problems with the TV sagging when the mount is extended. It is critical that the four lag bolt are tight against the mount. If you skip using the washers, you reduce the strength & stiffness of your mount.Any fine tuning needed can be done on the 3 bolt swivel plate after the TV is on the mount.The mounting bracket has holes so you can install mud rings & plates for your wiring. I will be installing a recessed power outlet on one side & a brush cover faceplate on the other for the signal cables on the other. The mounting bracket has wire chases so everything is neat & held to avoid crushing cables.The only thing I will do to modify the mount is to drill a small hole in the upper portion of each pivot point to allow me to easily give each pivot a shot of WD-40 once in awhile. This should keep it operating smoothly & keep things from getting tweaked if it gets a little sticky from dust & oxidation.

My husband and I wanted a simple flat screen, no frills, bells and whistles, and we were looking for a great price. The picture quality is really nice, sound is effective; we purchased it for our bedroom. I'm giving this a four out of five star rating because my husband did have problems getting it mounted to the stand that we bought along with it, if you purchase this TV and plan to mount it on the wall, be prepared to go and buy longer bolts to secure it. Other than that great quality for the price!

Picture is awesome! Suffers on the audio, needs additional speakers.

Good TV, especially for the price. My complaints bring down the rating only one star, due to the TV being a bargain. My complaints are basically two: 1) very limited file support through the USB port (doesn't play mkv files, for example, just avi and mp4 as far as I can tell); 2) when you go to the menu when a movie is playing through the USB port (for example, to change sound options or something), you exit the media player completely and go back to the TV, thus losing your place in the film -- and actually this happens very easily if you press the wrong button on the remote. So, if you really want to take advantage of playing files off a hard drive or USB stick, you kind of have to buy a separate little digital media player for around 30 or 40 bucks. Other than that, a great TV.

we're please with the purchase. I think I'll buy a second remote control, however, because I have to use a button on the remote to alternate between functions. The $5 remote from Walmart can't change the function.That said, the picture is crisp and the sound is good - we're not using a sound bar. It was easy to set up.

Good looking, inexpensive little LED HDTV. More inputs would have been nice but two HDMI seems to be standard on lower end models. The picture and sound are adequate for the price range, but nothing to write home about. This TV was purchased for a young child and fit that use perfectly, if buying for an adult then spend a few extra bucks and get a 1080p set, maybe even a Smart one if you don't have a device connected that will fill those needs.

This is a wonderful TV for the price; the picture is as good as any, the sound is very reasonable and it has a good selection of inputs. I could probably want one more HDMI to be ideal, but I did know there would be two when I bought it.I have one reservation: It has an external power supply. Yes, this keeps the size of the TV down but I have all the other cables hidden in the wall except for this one. I can't hide the external power block behind the TV because I have a flat mount. I didn't find this information on the Amazon page so I'm a little disappointed.

Seems to be a very strong wall mount, which is excellent and what you would buy this for. However, I found it extremely complicated to get the TV into a position I liked, as moving it around was not very cohesive. I finally have the TV (a 55" flat screen) where I want it and the anchors/wall mounts seem to be doing exactly what they need to. The thing could almost hold my full weight (170lbs) after being secured to a stud, which I guess, at the end of the day, is what you're buying this for.Also, getting the bracket to fit the back of my TV was a real son of a gun. I had to really jury-rig the additional pieces to get it. I feel PRETTY confident with what I was able to do, but rigging things together is always my last resort and leaves me feeling not 100% certain with the product's integrity. Will update if anything changes.

I'm tempted to give this 5 stars, because it really is amazing for the price. I have a wall mount that cost me about 4X the cost that doesn't have the adjustability of this one. This also came with a lot of different hardware, a HDMI cable, and a level! I've already used the level to mount a new soundbar to the wall, and I used some of the different hardware (bolts) to mount another TV on a bracket that I hadn't kept the other sizes for.I'm only knocking off one star because there's some slop that allows the TV to rotate about 10 degrees clockwise or counter-clockwise, so I periodically have to level it out. But to get that kind of precision machining would probably at least double the price, and it's not like the thing is flimsy - the vertical bracket alone is really heavy duty.

I have two of these now, and they perform as expected, which is key here. If you are just looking at something affordable that will allow you to mount a monitor on the wall with only OCCASIONAL movement needed (such as connecting or disconnecting HDMI/Audio cables when necessary, then this is a good buy.The cons: the rotation on the monitor face (going from 0 on X axis to anything more) feels to be about 10,degrees of rotation, so i believe its really only there to provide adjustment for sloppy mounting to the wall, or something. The arms that extend from the mountpoint on the wall, to the monitor, are VERY tight.Take care when man-handling your monitor when you need to extend the monitor from the wall, you might break the monitor from the mount points in the back of it. it hasnt happened to me, but it might. Lastly, the bolts that come with this are very easily stripped when attempting to drill this into the wall BE CAREFUL. That is, unless you never want to remove it from the wall. in that case, be my guest.Moral of the story is, that i'm relatively satisfied, but i dont think ill ever have to rebuy this, since i have 2 now. Whenever i decide an upgrade is needed, it will be to accommodate movement on the Y axis, for increased viewing flexibility, some thing like this i found on a very quick on basic search: https://www.amazon.com/North-Bayou-Motion-Computer-Monitors/dp/B01AI2YGK4/ref=zg_bs_10967501_6?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=P3T4VCDYW7SYCTV0FPM1

Seems solid enough for my older model Vizio, which is pretty heavy. The installation is easy, attaching to the wall us simple enough, they even give you a little level (which is a pretty handy size for other stuff). It is required that the unit be mounted to a stud, which I would do anyway on something this heavy. Attaching the arms to the back of the set is an exercise in trial and error but I got it after a couple of tries. Hoisting the set onto the wall unit is fairly easy using the guide tab on the mounting bracket. I did it alone, but would be better as a two man job, There is lots of left over nuts and screws which would be used in other installations.

We have a 40 inch Roku TV and this was bought to go with it. The instructions are easy to follow and it wasn't difficult to mount on the wall after finding the stud, except for the fact that the screws that came with it break easily and we had to find replacements. Once it was up on the wall, it was easy from there. There is a lip that the television sits on that is easy to click into place and then two screws that hod it in. It has a tilt function and the arm is nice and long so it can me moved around wherever you need it to be. It kinda reminds me of the ones you see at hospitals, where you can swing it out over a bed or other piece of furniture.Overall, this was an easy installation and a good choice.

Arrived on time and undamaged.Does the job, nice motion range. If it had included a little stud finder instead of a level and little sturdier mounting screws it would've warranted a 5 star. But, I am completely satisfied with it. Took me less than 45 min to install (would've been faster with the level/stud finder switch) Just wish they had used hardened screws for the actual mounting screws. Once they were close to being seated in the wall they began to strip out. If I ever need to move the thing, I will have to replace those cheap self-tapping screws. Other than those couple small things it is a pretty solid mount.

Fine TV for the money, but the strange remote functions left my elderly grandmother confused on usage. 720p is a fine resolution for a 32" screen- seeing as anything under 40" seems to be getting phased out by most manufacturers. Overall pleased- just wish the push for 1080p and a regular remote were options for this screen size and model from Samsung.

Spend a little more for audio outputs. Volume isn't very good at all

Got the tv yesterday. Pros: light weight, easy setup, plug & play, price/brand. Cons: needs firmware update, back light makes everything so dark, colors have to be pumped up, lots of shadowing especially evident on text. Am wondering if I should get a more expensive model or will I still have the same shadowing problem (its really noticeable & annoying). May return it for a newer series.

Volume does not go very high at all. Picture quality is good. I guess ya get what ya paid for. Samsung has definitely gone downhill in quality. I have another flat screen Samsung, same size that I purchased 9 years ago, and it still blows the new one away.

Great picture, but the sound only goes to 25 making it difficult to hear sometimes with background noise. I wonder if this is why I got such a good price on a TV set in which the box had already been open. I wonder it this TV is actually one someone else returned because of the sound problem?

This has a very good picture. And the sound is truly terrible no matter how much I monkey around with the possibilities. It's tinny and buzzy. I'm trying to find something I can plug into it for auxiliary speakers. I know a sound bar is recommended but I've been trying to juryrig other speakers without success as yet.

The mounting screws that come with this strip like they're made of soft plastic. There is a RIDICULOUS number of reviews here, even 4 and 5 stars, talking about how crappy the screws are, that my girlfriend did not notice when she bought this. Glad I checked and saw the countless other people having issues stripping the screws VideoSecu cheaped out on, cuz for a second I thought I lost my manly touch with power tools. -_-But seriously, if you plan on mounting a possibly very expensive TV with this, I HIGHLY recommend you buy better screws on your own, because the ones VideoSecu provides are not worthy of the rest of the mount, which is very well built and sturdy. I honestly couldn't care less how well it's built though, because it doesn't matter if the practically most important part of the device are junky.My fix:Instead of buying better screws that VideoSecu should have provided based on the numerous issues they are causing for tons of people, just switch over to a socket wrench or use a bit socket that wraps the whole screw head. Come to think of it, it's almost like these were meant to be socketed in, and like the phillips screw head was added to a hex head screw or something crazy like that. Anyways socket wrench em in. I recommend against changing your pilot hole size as some others have suggested. That is usually a bad idea (unless you're going very slightly smaller to make it a tighter grip). Good luck.

I've had my fair share of TV wall mounts but this is my first where the support bracket is only on one side. My initial thought was, great two less screws to drill on my wall. Unfortunately, after installing this and mounting my 55" LG LED TV the top screw gave and away goes the TV on my head. Fortunately the bottom screw was still holding on fairly well.After that scare I used a thicker screw for the top part of the mount, used the supplied screws for second reinforcement on the top and at last the bottom.Now....the waiting game starts, it's been up for 30 minutes so I guess so far so good.I would give this 4 stars but the mount seems a bit flimsy. But, I guess for the price you cant be too picky, or nitpicky like they call me at work.

Works great after a month, although I can't give it 5 stars because I had to mount it to a board due to the fact that the distance between studs didn't match up with the mount, also, I wanted to mount the tv low, but was unable to because the holes on the mount wouldn't line up. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN? so I had to mount the tv higher than i wanted. Instructions were easy to follow and mounting was simple.

The product is what it says it is. A small TV or Monitor mount. nothing special. I do have some concerns with the fact it only mounts at one point to one stud, but they do make bigger mounts and that may be what you need if this doesn't work for you. I also liked it came with the HDMI cord and a level. The product worked for me on three different TV's in three rooms and one room even being above the fireplace in brick. There is more than enough screws and hardware included with the exception of washers. for some reason each package only contained enough washer for three of the four TV screws on the back. other than that, works good.

I couldn't find the plate mounts I've used several of over the years, so I tried this one for a Hitachi 43" TV (43R5). The instructions are vague and you'd think it would be easy to figure out on your own. After a lot of trial and error I finally got it to fit, somewhat. The main problem was on the Hitachi, the bottom mounting holes are low on the TV causing the brackets to slightly extend down below the TV. If the TV was mounted low, it wouldn't be a problem, but mounted high on the wall like mine, the brackets show. It may not be a problem on other TV's, but I wouldn't recommend this for a Hitachi 43R5 if mounted high.

It works. Holds my 50" Plasma (55 lbs) just fine. I attached it to a beam, not a stud.PROS:Comes with plenty of hardware and an HDMI cable.Price (I paid ~$25.)After finding the stud, mounting the TV is pretty simple.CONS:You're hosed if a stud isn't in the spot you need it to be.The mounting bracket isn't in the center of the TV, so you have to offset the mount by about 3 inches. Not indicated in the directions.I would not buy this model again because of the limited mounting options. I'd buy one with upper and lower mounting rails that span 2 studs for more easy centering.

The TV was advertised "as new- still in box". The "box" was in tatters and held together by gobs of sticky tape. The front black frame of the TV was scratched/blemished in several places . The TV worked. I kept it ...how the heck was I going send that "box" back!

Design of 2 flimsy base/pods aren't as stable as needed. The merchant's policy for return-product cost is almost equal to purchase price which is outrageous. The t.v is back in its shipping box. I haven't seen or heard the quality of image, sound, etc., to see if it squares with specs &/or ads.

TERRIBLE SOUND QUALITY!!

I bought this TV last year. It was mentioned in the site that it has in-built Wifi but very last figured out that they are referring Roku stick connection to the TV. I also have picture issues with this TV that is text renders with shadows when connected to the cable.

Really good tv great picture and sound but extremely flimsy

Color was hard to adjust to get accurate. Still not happy with true to life color. Agree with another critical review that sound is poor, no bass and sounds like tin box. No option in menu to increase bass or treble. After two weeks, sound of certain voices was distorted, reverberating ... at only 60% volume strength. Amazon was excellent in troubleshooting, having me unplug power supply, reset power button, suggest maybe it is the HDMI cable, etc. We'll see.

Initially this mounting bracket seemed good. It felt sturdy, came with plenty of hardware, and it was relatively easy to attach our TV (which weighs just under 39 lbs, so well within the weight limit for the bracket). The directions that came with it are somewhat overwhelming. There are 3 individual pages, front & back, of directions. If they were attached in booklet form they'd be much easier to keep track of. We carefully measured the space where we wanted to mount our TV, found the center of the wall, and mounted the bracket. When we attached the TV to the bracket and folded it back towards the wall, the TV is off center by about 3". Also, even with everything tightened down, the TV is disturbingly wobbley on the backet. It's not the tilt that's wobbley, so not the "up/down" direction, it wobbles to the left/right at the part that connects to the TV. Our TV was sagging to the left pretty badly. We were able to level it out and it does hold level pretty well as long as you don't touch it.The wobbling killed my confidence in the bracket. I wanted to take the TV down within minutes of mounting it. We'll be replacing this bracket very soon.

This mount takes 3 people to install your tvI have purchased a lot of mounts and hung tvs by my self but this one sucksI purchased because it had a good rating and thought I would give it a tryWent ahead and hung tv but will probably change out for a better mountDo your self a favor and buy a better mount

This did not work for my LG 42" flat panel. The braces could only be attached at the top because the lower ones covered both the AC plug in and all the inputs. The flange that attaches the mount to the wall needs to be much longer, IMO. I just don't believe it will hold to the wall reliably. Finally, when folded flat against the wall, the TV is about 3" left-of-center and the mounting design didn't allow any adjustment in that direction. I returned it for a standard wall mount with two rails.

While this is a solid mount, there is no way to adjust the center of the TV once it's mounted. I attached the mount so it was centered over my fireplace, where I intentionally placed a stud while framing the wall. After mounting the TV, I pushed it back against the wall and it was 3 inches off center due to the configuration of the mount arms. It looks pretty bad with the TV being that far off. This seems like a pretty basic adjustment that all mounts should have, and it makes no mention in the description that it is lacking this feature. I'm returning this and getting a different mount that has the required adjustability.

I got this mount because of the Prime Day price and the reviews. I removed my existing mount, which was perfectly level, and replaced it with this. When I installed it the base was perfectly level, but the end where you hang the TV was not at all. I had to loosen the bolts and adjust the mount every way I could to get the left side all the way up in hopes that the TV would end up level. It took a while and some frustration, but I got it as level as it can be. Now I'm hesitant to move the TV at all for fear of it shifting somehow and the left side dropping again.

Yes the mount is cheap and yes it holds up my TV and yes it was easy to put up, but that's where the compliments stop. The mount I received can never be level. When it's pushed in it leans one way and when I pull it out it leans the other way. There's no way to adjust that side-to-side tilt of your TV as the joint only adjusts up and down. I had to laugh with the level included b/c all it does is highlight how uneven the mount is. \Looking at the picture others have posted I see a nice cover for where the bolts go, more than two places to put the bolts in and silver metal on arm. The one I received is like the new stock photo. Completely square plate, no silver metal showing and only two places to attach bolts. While the metal is very heavy/sturdy, it feels like a cheap production and lacks attention to detail. I've given up on keeping the TV level and am just living with it for now. The arm is very stiff and difficult to pull in and out even with a 32" TV on it.I should have spent $10-20 more to get a quality mount, but this just seems to be one of those cases where the manufacturing got switched to some cheaper factory and the quality has gone down as a result. Keep shopping people.

I was extremely disappointed with that Samsung TV! It was cheaply constructed, and on the display it would incorrectly represent the input ports used, and every device I attached to it would only display pictures and videos in black and white; no color whatsoever, and that was the proverbial stick that broke the camels back!

Volume doesn't work :(

Came completely broken

After a year and a half, Screen turned black, with sound still coming. Very upset it's still not old yet. According to some other samsung tv customers, that happens a lot.I won't buy another samsung TV!!!

Did not work on arrival. No power. I am really disappointed

Did not work

Horrible bolt system. Save your time and money shop somewhere else. The bolts become captive when you insert them. Had a heck of a time getting them back out to adjust the mount. And it tore up the wall and took an extra 2hours to mount this thing. They need to rethink the design of the mounting system. I've hung several televisions and never have I dealt with such nonsense. Not to mention that they never tell you anything about it. Never again!

Received this mount a few days ago and it looked great taking it out of the box. However, the mounting plate is only 16" wide, so the lag bolts in the widest position would only be about 15-15.5" apart. It's not the end of the world, but the fact that the plate isn't designed to fit a standard stud width just frustrates me. I'm sending it back and buying something else

Very difficult to put together for a large tv, took a while to figure out how to angle the piece that attaches to the tv. I would not recommend to anyone unless if a professional was going to do the work.

Did not fit the TV and it was in the range specified

Could not support a 55 inch curved TV. Arm bent and 2 screws popped out of the wall

Not happy at all. The cheap bolts that come with it two out of the 3 mounting bolts heads broke off. So had to go buy better screws. Then when I finally got the mount installed it was a pain to get the tv up there. To hard to do by your self like they said it is. Now two days later I noticed my tv was not str8. Yes the arm is already bent. This product is trash. Plus it was to hard to open and move. Do not buy this product
