FINALLY! A MOUNT THAT ACTUALLY WORKS!

FINALLY! A MOUNT THAT ACTUALLY WORKS! I've bought so many magnet mounts; I am convinced I have single-handedly been funding R&D for the made in China magnet mount industry over the last ~12 months. I have tried everything - stick on, vent mount, CD mount etc - and they've all been JUNK. Don't hold the phone, come off too easy, bounce around, fall apart after a month etc. Until now. This one actually works. Been rock solid since Day 1 install, even with my super heavy, somewhat long in the tooth, aftermarket battery burdened mobile phone.

This mount works incredibly well. I bought this impulsively due to frustrations with my Escort 9500 series  detector flying off the suction cup mount repeatedly on cold or hot days. It's weighted friction bottom does a great job holding it in place, even on my angled dash. Two improvements would have justified a fifth star:
- the bean bag is rigid and does not allow it to hug the contours of the dash
- the mount itself is held to the bean bag by suction cup, rather than a more reliable locking mount like my gps and other mounts that I've seen
Bottom line: this was worth the price to end my frustration

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.

Purchased to mount a Sharp 60" LED TV in our master bedroom.  I have NEVER mounted a single thing, and would consider myself 100% a Noob in this arena.  I spent several days reading reviews on full motion wall mounts, and decided to finally go with this one ~ the Echogear!  And boy, and I glad I did!

Pro's:
1)  Fit & Finish are EXCELLENT.  No Dints, Dents, or scratches on the mount itself.
2)  Comes with all the parts, bolts, and fittings you need to mount.
3)  Assuming you have basic hand tools, you can mount this.
4)  Directions were excellent & easy to read.  A bit of confusion on the correct bolts to use with our TV, but they literally provide 5-6 different types.
5)  Solid, Solid, Solid.  Mounted with 4 bolts (provided with mount) ~ I weight 175 lbs and hung my weight on it without issue.
6)  Comes with 6' HDMI Cable.  While I didn't need it, it was awesome to have an extra!  Kind of wish it was a bit longer (8-10') but hey, beggars can't be choosers :)

Con's:
1)  Price went up about $10 bucks between the time I put it in my cart on a Friday night, and Saturday morning when I was ready to order.  Either way, was happy to spend $80 bucks or so on a quality mount.

Conclusion:  My father-in-law (FIL) and I installed this in about 45 minutes.  Neither of us had any mounting experience and we were mounting it about 5 feet in the air.  Went through the quality instructions, and gave it a shot.  The only tricky part was getting the mount level.  Due to the size of the bolts, they like to slightly move the mount itself when bolted.  Easy enough fix and this mount is as sturdy as anything I have ever seen.  We ended up mounting a Sharp 60" LED TV weighing in, in about 55-60 lbs.  I wouldn't hesitate to use up all 135 lbs allowed in mounting a TV.  Its that sturdy!

If I ever need to mount another TV ~ I'll be grabbing another ECHOGEAR mount!  Absolutely love it!

I found this to be a very nice mount, that does exactly what it was designed to do.  I am very pleased with it.

It was a bit challenging to figure out how to assemble it, but with some patience I was able to get it set up correctly.  It is of fairly high quality, the screws were good (not cheap metal that strips out easily), and overall I'd recommend this mount.

Very pleasantly pleased with this mount; very satisfied.  I did not expect it to be so stable and steady over rough roads.  It exceeds my expectations in all respects.

I use my phone as a GPS on road trips, most of which exceed 5000 miles, often over rough roads.  I have always preferred a windshield mount for the stability, but my next trip will be in states where windshield mounts are entirely illegal (regardless of placement).  I decided to try this vent mount because I like the look of the metal clip for attaching it to the vent.  Perfect answer!  It attached quickly and very firmly, and sits out just far enough that I still get good airflow from the vent behind the phone.  I've taken it on a torture test over New England spring potholed roads, and it didn't budge.  For my set up, it does take two hands to get the phone (Galaxy S8+) into the clamps; it doesn't expand as easily as some other brands.  I consider that a plus, since it means the phone is held firmly.

The base of the mount rests against some silver trim on the dashboard, so I elected to put a thin adhesive rubber pad on the back of the mount to prevent any wear in that spot.

I had been looking for a mount that would allow me to corner-mount my 60" TV, and was getting frustrated at only seeing $200-300 options at the big box stores. This mount works great and since it is mounted through 2 studs, it feels really sturdy. The longer extending arms allow for it to fit in the corner perfectly. I just wish I had found this before having to buy/return a different mount that couldn't get the TV to fit in the corner.

My wife wasn't happy with me spending $400 on a mount, let alone the installation costs, but boy did I prove her wrong! The mount is amazing, and everyone marvels at how great it looks, and how well it works. It transformed my room - I no longer need an ugly, bulky media stand for my TV. It opened up my room and made it feel so much bigger. It also makes my room feel more formal, which is nice. Thank you, MantelMount!

I researched for quite some time as to which car mount I should get for my car. I didn't care for the windshield suction cup types, and did not want anything that was permanently installed. The CD player slot arrangements looked like garbage on the dash, too.

I had seen other types of 'vent mounts' in the past and always thought of them as plasticky and flimsy appliances that, in general, looked and performed terribly. That's when I stumbled across this product.

While I was initially concerned about the magnetic interference and the GPS of the phone, other reviews (and the item description) noted that this is not a problem. I have since discovered that it is a non-issue.

Installation could not be easier - I took off the hard portion of my Spigen Tough Armor case and slipped the THIN piece of metal under it. The inclusion of the metal piece under the plastic raises the plastic portion of the case, but it's barely noticeable. In addition, the fact that the metal piece is NOT permanently installed on the phone is a great bonus - this should work for anyone with a case on their phone.

The round magnetic mount went in the vent with no issues and stays firmly installed all the time. It is barely visible without the phone installed and allows a charging connection without a problem.

It even stays in place when removing the phone from the magnetic mount - others have commented that it pulls out of the vent (but not for me!). Speed bumps, taking sharp turns, braking suddenly - the phone stays without moving a millimeter.

I could not be happier with this mount. It is about as minimalist as it could be and serves it's intended purpose perfectly. LOVE IT!

I can't believe I installed so many of those huge wallmounts that only tilt.  This product is what I had been looking for all those earlier years.  SIMPLE to mount, extremely low profile, reticulating, and very inexpensive.  5 stars for this one!

I've mounted several TVs around my house, and this is by far the best mount I've used.

I only shop for mounts that somehow obscure the mounting hardware. This mount has plastic covers that snap on and off to give the mount a nice finished look.

This is the only mount I've ever seen that forgives you if you don't mount it exactly level. The interface between the TV bracket and the wall bracket has a round connector and allows you to rotate the whole TV and tighten it down so if you didn't get the mount quite level, you can fix it after the fact.

The materials are sturdy. Comes with all the hardware you need.

I am mounting into brick and (yes, there are lots of opinions as to whether to go into the brick or the mortar! I went into mortar) the size of the mount exactly matched my 2 13/16" spaced mortar joints! I know I just got lucky but that made it all go so much better that I just had to mention it. It came with six anchors and lag screws and, after looking around for a better way to mount it, I couldn't come up with anything. I did put a little bit of Liquid Nails around the anchors in case there was any crumbling around the holes.

My TV is a 48" but only 29 lbs. so I'm confident this mount and the provided anchors (5 lb/anchor) will hold it well.

It was easy to assemble, even considering the non-verbal instruction sheet.

After spending MUCH time researching the mount  issue, I settled on this one.

Solid and well made and keeping zero isn't an issue like so many others.  Simpler to mount as well.

Simpler, yes, but *somehow* after careful following of directions, multiple measurements. firmly clamped and drilled with good quality brand new drill and tap in the drill press, I got it off by an embarrassing amount.  I am utterly perplexed how I managed to screw  it up?!?!?!?

I'm going to have to move it forward or back a bit and redo it again...

Still no reflection on the mount itself,  Somehow I screwed up!?!??!

Best mount in my opinion.

It works! I was a bit skeptical as well given the price compared to other retail stores -- but I had no issues whatsoever. This was the second mount I put up after a friend assisted me with the first -- piece of cake. Just need the right tools.

After reading lots of reviews, and watching some demos on YouTube, I decided to purchase this mount, and I am very pleased with my purchase. The suction cup stays firm to the windshield without a problem. The build of the mount in general feels/seems high quality and solid. It holds my Nexus 4 tight and doesn't let go. There's no jiggling or other movement issues (which I've seen reported with other mounts). I would recommend this to anyone in the market for a mount.

I've used this mount  a few times now and my customers seemed to be quite pleased. Does exactly what it needs to do; hang the f!#^// set! Period! The only set back is the assembly. Little time consuming compared to a one-piece mount.

I am one who very seldom writes a product review of the items that I buy.  I felt compelled to write one about this product.  First let me start by saying this is a very sturdy and heavy mount.  I bought the Samsung Smart 55 inch TV so I wanted something that would preserve my investment and give me free range of motion in positioning the TV.  This mount covers that easily.  It comes with a balancer that actually works.  The balancer is small but it is accurate.  I used a larger industrial type to measure the accuracy of it.  It was spot on.  The mount actually weighs more than my tv so it is not a flimsy piece of metal.
The mount will allow you to move it left and right and forwards and backwards.  The Tv is very stable and the oscillating arm moves with ease.  My only complaint with this is that they give you 2 sizes of bolts to attach your TV to the arm.  One bolt was too small,  I was only able to turn the screw once when attaching it so I decided against that size, the other bolt was too long.  Even if I used to spacers for the bolts, it peeked out over the hole by a half of inch.  To fix the problem, I used a small saw to cut them down.  You could also buy medium size bolts to use if a saw is not available. For the price you pay for this fascinating mount, it is truly worth it.  It also comes with a hmdi cable so you are ready to hook up your TV if you do not have one.
I looked at Best Buy, Fry's, and Walmart to find a mount for my TV and the cheapest I could find for this size was 159.00.  The quality was far less superior than this one.  I would definitely recommend this to anyone in the market for it.  Great product!
