I installed this mount for a 27" LCD, so I don't have the experience to advise.

I would go with a stronger mount because even with my 22" there is a slight tilt difference from one position or the other. I assume it will be exaggerated on a bigger tv.

I purchased a Samsung TV that weighs 19# to wall mount. The bracket is not challenged at all with that weight (it is well made), so I think 30 to 35# may still work with sound stud mounting of the base screws. I did not buy the VESA TV brand that is mentioned in the brcket materials, and did have to buy 4 new metric mounting screws for the Samsung brand. If you are buying Vesa, the screws may ne long enough.

May have to open up the wall and use heavy nut and bolt - as to bolt the mount to the steel wall studs. I had wood studs and drilled pilot holes to screw in the large lag bolts, put in four for the mounting plate - my TV is a 60" and weighs 75 Lbs...this bracket extends out like...20" that is a lot of weight on the wall...mine went up perfect and I really like the bracket and it can be turned in many directions - overall I wanted the the bracket to be absolutely affixed to the wall - to prevent the TV from pulling everything out of the wall and onto the floor....

Check to make sure the VESA dimensions work. Other that that, as long as your TV weighs less that what the FMX3 is rated for you should be good. I fully extended the mount and hung a 5gal bucket full of water and some weights, about an inch off the floor, overnight to make sure the unit could take it before I risked my 60". No probems but you might want to do the same to make sure your wall can take the forces involved.

Generally its best to attach to a beam or Stud. But since that's not always possible a good drywall anchor sized for the weight it will hold works just as well. This TV mount comes with bolts for studs and anchors for drywall. You would just need to provide the screws for the anchors.A 27" TV will work well with this mount. I put a 50" TV on mine and its fine.

I purchased one for a 32 inch Insignia. The edges of the TV just barely covered the Mount. I don't think it would hold a 42 inch LED with no problem. All of the nuts, bolts and washers came with the unit. I would recommend it.

Joan, this mount is 45" wide, and the mounting brackets can accommodate 16" studs, or 24", or irregularly spaced studs up to 42." The holes on the back of the TV can be no further apart than the span of the mount (40" or closer would be safe), and no further from top to bottom than the length of the vertical brackets (and I don't know those dimensions, but they are usually easily spanned by the vertical brackets). I used one above a custom built fireplace where the studs were 41." It worked great.

Yes, you can. Am using this for my 47" LED/LCD TV. Is a strong bracket and easy to install. Be careful when installed, try to find your 2 by 4 in your wall. Remember you don't want an accident.

some real dumb people on here, buy a mount with 4 places to hold mount to the wall when mounting anything over a 32" not 2 like this model, never buy a mount that is max rated to the size of your set, get one where your set falls below the max, that way you know it can handle more than what you are going to put on it, if you're going to be mounting a 55" get a mount that is rated to hold sets 32-65", not one that is rated 23-55"... that being said I've had a 32" mounted to this for a few years now, it has been pulled in and out several hundred times and is still as sturdy as the day I mounted it some real dumb people on here, buy a mount with 4 places to hold mount to the wall when mounting anything over a 32" not 2 like this model, never buy a mount that is max rated to the size of your set, get one where your set falls below the max, that way you know it can handle more than what you are going to put on it, if you're going to be mounting a 55" get a mount that is rated to hold sets 32-65", not one that is rated 23-55"... that being said I've had a 32" mounted to this for a few years now, it has been pulled in and out several hundred times and is still as... » Read More some real dumb people on here, buy a mount with 4 places to hold mount to the wall when mounting anything over a 32" not 2 like this model, never buy a mount that is max rated to the size of your set, get one where your set falls below the max, that way you know it can handle more than what you are going to put on it, if you're going to be mounting a 55" get a mount that is rated to hold sets 32-65", not one that is rated 23-55"... that being said I've had a 32" mounted to this for a few years now, it has been pulled in and out several hundred times and is still as sturdy as the day I mounted it « Show Less

Hi David,Thanks for the question. This TV weighs about 50 pounds and has a Vesa pattern of 300mm x 300mm. This very strong and versatile TV wall mount should be a perfect fit for this nice looking TV. The only thing I would check is on a lot of Sony TV's there is a section on the back that sticks out further from the rest of the TV. Just make sure this does not interfere with the installation. Often a set of spacers installed with the wall mount will take care of any concerns. Contact AV-Express for more details.

Maybe...it's been a while since I put mine on the wall but 12 lbs sounds probably too light, 32 lbs sounds too heavy to me. I mounted the mount myself and remember getting one bolt in the pre-drilled stud, then swinging it to put in the second bolt. After getting it up, I realized it wasn't exactly centered on the wall, so had to move whole thing I've one bolt position...went thru same process of first, then second bolt. I'd guess 20-25lb more likely the weight of mine.

The thing you have to worry about the most is the width on the mounting bracket from screw to screw. The original mounting bracket I bought was the best I've ever seen. Now, they no longer make it and they offer this cheap substitute. (cheap to me) My TV hasn't changed. It was still made in 2008 and is fairly heavy by today's standards. Newer TV's today are bigger and lighter than mine so now maybe this newer bracket is okay for today's TV's. It won't work for mine because of the width. I had to buy a conversion kit to get the new bracket to work with my old TV and it was an additional $15.

Manufacturing specs for the product spell out the weight limits in detail. If necessary, go online to get specs. I wall mounted mine to a wall stud with the screws included and mounted a 24" monitor that weighs aprox. 15 pounded, it works perfectly and I would strongly recommend this product.

I am not familar with that model tv,but I did mount a Samsung 55" 3D Led and a Sony 60" led with no problem at all.The mount is one of the most heavy duty I have seen in this price range.It will hold up to 150 lb tv with the stardard mounting holes.They are adjustable to meet VESA specs.I hope this helps.

I bought 2 of these...a "small" one and a "larger" one. The "smaller" one didn't have the mounting hole centers that I needed for my 26" TV, so I ended up using the "larger" one that was intended for a 32" TV. So...while the weight may not be a problem, the mounting centers will be. I sort of remember mounting my dad's 60" Samsung, and the centers are much much wider...400mm or something, because it mounted on long arms attached to the center plate.

I have 2 27" LED monitors on mine, they are pretty lightweight tho. Id say 40-50lbs would be fine.

You can use any brand that supports the 55" TV, it will depends on what you want, I mean if you want a fix wall mounted tv you can use the "Cheetah Mounts APTMM2B Flush Tilt (1.3" Profile) TV Wall Mount Bracket for 32-65 inch LED and/or if you want another model with an extension arm to move your TV, you can use the "Cheetah Mounts ALAMLB Articulating Arm (20" Extension) TV Wall Mount Bracket for 23-55 inch LCD, LED".
