VonHaus Ultra Slim TV Wall Mount for 15-42 inch LCD LED 3D Plasma TVs Super Strong 88lbs Weight Capacity (05/022)

It’s great

This is super easy to install. It comes with all the bolts you could need, and you don't even have to mount it to studs! The kit comes with 4 (or so) different kinds of bolts for the brackets that mount into your tv(apparently different tv's have different sizes). It also comes with 8 or 9 washers. 4 of the washers have a smaller hole in the middle than the rest. All you have to do is lay the vertical bracket on the holes on the back of your tv, put the washers on the bolts, and tighten them in (you'll need a socket set for this, also, I had to add an extra washer to each bolt so I could tighten it down enough. DON'T over tighten!). As far as mounting the plate onto the wall, if you have studs where you're mounting your tv, all you have to do is drive the self tapping screws through the bracket and into the studs. If you don't have studs where you're mounting your tv, the kit comes with drywall anchors that you push into a hole that you drill out in the wall, and from there you'd just install the wall bracket like normal, except you'd screw the bolts into the anchors in the wall. Once you have all the brackets mounted ( two on the tv and one on the wall) it's just a matter of setting the tv onto the wall bracket. It's fairly easy. This worked great with my 32 inch tv using the drywall anchors. I had no issues installing it and it only took about 30 minutes. The image attached shows the tv mounted and all wired up, the wires are ugly in the picture, but I recently bought a wire cover that hides the wires and makes everything look neat (The wire cover I have now is from best buy, I got it for 16$ on sale). Overall, I'd say you should buy this if you're in need of a tv mount. It's extremely cheap and works great.

This mount is working great for my 39" Visio TV. It was super easy to mount. The level is very convenient and helped expedite the install. It is small, so it easily hides behind the TV. My one worry with this when I made the purchase was that it doesn't have adjustable viewing angles. Your TV stays in a fixed position. After walking around the 14'X11' room, and viewing it from all distances and angles, I can see that this isn't an issue. I'm able to view the TV's display from any spot in the room.As an update, I noticed a critical review that stated that the wall mount is only for concrete walls, and that the mounting anchors are for concrete. They mentioned that the dimensions of the mount make it impossible to span across two studs, so it is impossible to mount. You've got two options available here...Option 1: Purchase drywall anchors (available at Walmart), and use those instead of the provided concrete anchors. This is what I did. I'm fairly certain my 75lbs rated drywall anchors were under $2 to purchase. I simply mounted the unit straight to the drywall with the anchors. This option should work fine for lighter TVs. Mine weighs 14 lbs, and the wall mount is holding firm. Since it is a fixed mount, it's not like you will be constantly pulling and twisting every day to adjust the viewing angle.Option 2: Stud/drywall anchor combination; find one stud, and screw your wall mount into that on one side, then use drywall anchors to attach the other side.I'm not even certain that the anchors they provide don't work on drywall. The instructions do refer to them as concrete anchors, but they look a lot like drywall anchors to me. I only bought the drywall anchors to be on the safe side.

People, I looked at this because it's a $13 item, but you have to understand what you need and the mount's upper limits so it won't disappoint you and waste your time.The mount description says max. VESA 300 x 260. This generally means a HDTV up to about 40" (200 x 200). I checked several 39"-40" HDTV's and they use 200 x 200. (My situation is a 32" back-lit LED LCD @ 10 lbs, very light).The width of the mount is about 13" (337mm) so it won't span 2 studs (@ 16" center), but most NEW (2012 models) are in the 20-30lb range (CCFL's are at the higher weight spectrum while back-lit 40" can weight as little as 20lb w/o stand). As such, you can use 4 drywall plastic anchors (which were provided with my unit). For concrete or cement walls, I would suggest lead anchors which were NOT provided.If you are able to position the mount over 1 stud (2 screws), and 2 other screws in drywall or plasterboard, and the HDTV is less than say 35 lbs, I think you would be safe for the long run.Since I don't have a 42" TV, I don't know if those sets transition to 400 x 400 (one Walmart Sanyo 42" @ 33lb needs 400 x 400) so I would say the mount manufacturer is being too liberal in describing it suitable for 42" and up to 88lbs.Bottom line, this is cheap & good mount for up to 40" (200 x 200) and up to 30 lbs (my guess, if no stud); ove 30 lbs, I would look for 1 stud before buying this mount. If you meet this, $13 and you're good to go. If 42" or more, or rated at 400 x 400, step up to the $25 mounts (look for free shipping) from other Amazon "basic mount" sellers -- the non-adjustable mounts are about 30mm from the wall, and the adjustable tilts are further out to provide needed clearance.The steel is of the right heft gauge for the newer, lighter weight TV's, and the mounting screws seem complete.
