No brainer if you've tossed your pedestal after mounting
933253
Years ago, we'd mounted a 32" "dumb" Samsung TV with the idea we'd only remove it once it died so we tossed the pedestal. A month ago, the TV appeared to have died. DH said he'd checked all the connections (quite a few as we had a Sling box attached to it as well as a cable box), and connections were not the problem. We ordered a new TV ("smart" one, now), and I went to disconnect everything. Doing so, I discovered the power cord seemed really loose. I replaced it with another and, bam! , the TV works again. No problem as I can put that one in another room except for one thing---no pedestal. I was thrilled to find something so inexpensive. This is one sturdy, stable holder. At first, we installed the TV higher up, but it was too high so we moved it lower. You can see that it's still not as low as it can go. It can also go much higher, if that's what you need. Originally, we had it about midway up on the VESA 400x400 connection points. It was incredibly stable. It was also a snap to readjust the height. Once set on the chest of drawers, I found that the front of the feet could move a little (maybe 1"-2") in/out to meet your needs. The stand did arrive with a note that assured buyers that it would work on 22" TV's even though the box indicated larger units.

but haven't taken it off once I mounted it.
Mounting took a little mechanical mojo;
no reason to take it off now.

Do yourself a favor, don't bother mounting a rifle scope without this.

Really good mount.  Be sure to have all of your tools ready before starting.

The mount is not the bomb-proof, rock-solid anchor that I'd design, but it's easy-on and easy-off, and works well enough... especially if you are not having any imbalance issues.

I did have some minor balance issues with the fan blade, but 15 minutes with some change, and tape got it smoothed out nicely (and then that same change and some epoxy made the 'fix' permanent).

I don't remember what project I purchased this particular size for but suffice it to say they make mounting so many things so easy and their easy removal is a plus.  Just be careful if they've been up a while because they can become brittle which makes removing them a challenge after you inadvertently pull off just the tab.  And hold onto the hook you're removing.  If you don't you probably won't make that mistake a second time.

I was a bit disappointed at first with this product, because it wasn't sticking the wall I wanted it to stick to. After reading the instructions, I realized I would have to mount it on my mirror instead (not the painted not-so-smooth wall next to it). No big deal. Once I mounted it on my mirror it held very sturdily, and has been sitting there without any issues for a few months since then.

Docking a star because it doesn't "feel" like a very elegant stand for my DE razor, and there's not a good way to hang my shaving brush from it (which I figured would be the case when I bought it). But if you don't care about that sort of stuff, this is probably a 5-star, inexpensive gadget for keeping your bathroom counter tidier.

I just hung a mirror that's been leaning against the wall for a year now because I was hesitant to drill screws into the wall.  It would have taken two  large screws very carefully placed to hang the mirror and I was avoiding the task.  Yesterday I attached four strips and stuck it on the wall in less than 10 minutes tops.  It looks great, the mirror is flush against the wall and I didn't damage the wall or paint finish so I'm super happy!  3M has the best products!  I'm a huge fan.

I had a mount that was flimsy,and when I got a metal pole it broke. The screws included with this were a joke. I didn't even try to use them. I feel the bracket will do fine with the larger screws I wounted it with, and it looks very elegant.

Install was simple, drill your holes, mount your bracket, attach the stand and speaker, done!
I have some medium size Yamaha speakers that weigh around 2-3 lbs. These clamping brackets are strong enough to hold the speaker up without needing to use the small anchor screws.

Install Tips:
* Do NOT use the drywall plugs. They are far too small and thin to hold any kind of weight. Make sure you have a stud finder before starting, that is a must!
* Measure twice drill once. You do not want to be constantly removing the screws, the heads easily strip, then you will be stuck with a bolt in your wall.

I have an old and very expensive lamp and its mounting bracket was lost in a move which rendered it unusable. This mount did exactly what it was ordered to do and saved me the cost of not having to purchase a whole new expensive replacement.

Complaints from others about the poles facing/sloping the wrong way could only be due to incorrect assembly (which takes just a few minutes). Would've given 5 stars, but it only came with two mounting holes pre-drilled in each...and the included hardware wouldn't hold half the rated weight. This is to be expected - so be ready in all likelihood to buy your own mounting hardware, especially since it's difficult to include enough variety for all wall types, anyhow. For what we needed it to do (hold large, awkward stands), this does it well and at a fraction of what other solutions cost.

Worth every Penny.  Great for somebody going from wall mount back to base mount.

I have always been a fan of speaker stands and never mounted speakers on a wall.  Luckily I had all the tools i needed.  I own and live in a townhouse.  The material that I drilled into was a mixture of aluminum, maybe thin steel and wood. I measured about 18 inches from the ceiling, then centered the measurement.  Before drilling, I placed the mount on the wall and used a sharpie to lightly dot the bolt pattern on the wall.  Drilled a pilot hole using a small drill bit, very slowly and carefully.  You don't want the bit to break inside the wall.  Then, I used a drill bit slightly smaller than the size of the included wall anchors. & drilled into the wall, inserted the included wall anchors, and screwed the mount into the wall.  The end result is very clean, looks quality too.  I was a bit concerned at first with the tilt and swivel feature and how that was going to work.  When I think tilt and swivel, I automatically see a ball joint...but this design for the tilt and swivel is a single bolt and lug.  Which is fine because once the mount was fully assembled and on the wall, it all made sense and the degree of tilt and swivel is perfect for my living room.  Just read the instructions and follow them carefully.  Make sure you have all the tools you need.  You may also want to head over to your favorite home improvement store and buy some extra wall anchors that match the included, just in case.  I plan on buying another pair mounts and add Rear Back Surrounds to my living room wall.

Works great but make sure you read the posting and mount it right.

I was very surprised at how easily & quickly this installed, especially considering I'm not a tool or car guy. The instructions were straight-forward and really only require a single tool I'd consider "non standard" and that's an inexpensive hook tool - I'm not even sure it was really needed, to be honest (you can check out the company web page for a pdf version in advance). It took me less than 10 minutes. I'd be hard pressed to come up with a better place for this mount's location. It's sturdy and unobstructive.

This is far, far superior to other options I've tried (suction cups, vent clips, bendy rod from the socket, etc) and don't hesitate to recommend this.

I recently purchased a 65" Panasonic Plasma television and picked up this mount for hanging it. Happy to report, I had no problems using this mount (DC65FT). I've read where other people found the built-in level to be off, however it was perfectly centered on my install, I even compared it against my 4 foot level. The stud finder is rather cheap, but if you don't already have one, it should work just fine. Still test with a small nail to ensure you are hitting the center of the stud. You want the lag bolts to bite really well into the stud. For my install, I was able to hit 3 studs since mine are 12" on center, but for most people 2 should be just fine. I just wanted to be sure my 65" was well supported.

The metal mount is sturdy and well built, supports up to 200 lbs. (my 65" weighs around 135), and it came with lots of hardware for various different tv manufactures. I really can't see paying a couple hundred for a more "high-end" mount when this one is more than adequate.

I'm using the fixed setup, but if I ever wanted to use the tilt option, it's just a matter of inserting the tilt bar (literally a two minute job). In the fixed position, there's probably a 2 inch clearance from the back, more like 3" if you use the tilt bar. To make the connections easier, I picked up a few elbow connectors to ensure none of my cables were pinched by the tight space - on my tv the plugs are coming directly out the back, not on the bottom like some others I've seen (LCD monitors).

Oh, and the unit came with a wire management system as well. I didn't need it, but seems like it would conceal all your wires if your home theater setup required it. And the covers are paintable in case you want them to match your wall color (they are a light tan out of the box).

Total install time was about 45 minutes, I read through everything first, laid out the parts I needed and then took my time. I didn't want to mess anything up.

In the end, good purchase and my wife even gave her approval - always a plus. I plan to buy another one to hang the 42" Panny in the bedroom.
