Just installed for my 65in. TV. Build quality is excellent. Just mounting wall bracket takes two people. I did it myself put it was some work. One person to hold bracket and the other to screw bolt into stud. Very well designed. I would go with a lighter weight model if you have a 55 in TV. The wall will come down before this puppy will. This model is overkill for a 55in. TV. I like the design as you can slide the TV left or right several inches for centering. Finding the studs can limit how well you can center the TV. Some brackets fold back against the wall but move the TV left or right when TV is against the wall. This brand pulls the TV straight out and back. The instructions need improvement, mostly pictures, some verbage is needed on how to use the template. Biggest problem for me was making sure i was in the center of the stud. Be sure you measure carefully several times as there is not much room for error. I would also recommend that the slot holes be enlarged slightly as the bolt just fits into the slot. A small level is supplied that attaches to the template. Be sure it is precisely centered. A little bit off and the template with not be exactly level. I had to shift the bracket all the way to one side for centering in my application. Doing so caused the mounting bolt head to just clear a metal lip that is located on the top and bottom of bracket. I had difficulty getting my socket wrench onto the bolt head. A socket wrench is supplied but there is no way it will get the bolt into the stud more than a half inch or so. A socket wrench is needed for more leverage. They need to give another 1/8 clearance or so between the lip and bolt head.

Easy to install. Works as it should.

First off, I have 3 different TVs mounted around the house, using 3 different brands. This is by far the most sturdy and secure feeling of the three. Easy to install, hardly any assembly required> the unit that mounts to the wall is 100% assembled, just the parts that connect to the TV are separate. All the different adapters, bolts and washers are individually wrapped separate from one another. The only potential issue is for owners of a Samsung smart TV, like me. The main TV structure support bracket (that extends from the wall) runs directly BEHIND the removable power cord (check out pic). So if you install the TV-side mount brackets with the shortest adapters and shortest bolts, it will block the power cord connection (you will not be able to plug in the TV!!!). Had to take a long look at how to get around this; the solution is to use the longest bolts with both the short and tall adapters (check out pic). And, hang the TV onto the wall side of the bracket with the power cord already plugged in beforehand. I was concerned about compromising stability but it is rock solid. So, as long as you are aware of this potential issue, you can save yourself some confusing moments when installing this system. Not a deal breaker by any means, just be aware of it; at least with Samsung TVs.

The product is well made. Tilting adjustments and leveling are simple after TV mounted. Instructions are easy to follow with accurate images and step by step procedures. Hardware was well labeled. Happy with purchase!

I have a 65 LG that I purchased this TV mount for. It fits well, holds the TV with no issue, and has the full range of motion advertised. In fact, it has much more motion than Ill ever need, and can hold the TV out from the wall further than I am comfortable with. It does make back-of-TV access (power cords, HDMI, etc.) much easier. During unboxing/mounting, the pivot arm is still connected to the back plate. It would be much simpler for install if the arm was shipped separate. There are only a few bolts to take this assembly loose and will make the install much easier. General installation note unrelated to the product itself: ensure you have the correct anchoring hardware for installation. We found out we have metal studs, not wood, so we had to go buy different hardware for mounting. Its important to get hardware that will work. If you have to change hardware, also make sure you have the correct washers. Measure 3 times, drill once to avoid extra holes in the apartment walls.

So... I like to go overkill on some projects, especially like this where a heavy object could potentially fall on my child. So, I spend the extra $ for what appears to be a more premium mount, and they delivered. Now, as far as mounting goes, I have an older 50 Samsung Plasma TV which weighs a good bit, and back to what I previously said about things that could possibly fall on my child... I went overkill on this install. I already had an outlet installed behind the TV and, when I installed it I thought I had it centered just right as to avoid interference with any mount later on but go figure I was about a 1/2 too far to the right and this mount would have been on top of the right side of the faceplate. No worries, I wanted to put some boards (which I still need to paint) under the mounting bracket anyway so I could proceed with my overkill install. I had some scrap 1x4 boards that I cut to size. Two went behind the mount, the other 1 went on the other side of the wall to which the TV would be mounted which just so happened to just be a closet space in my office, so no biggie. Pre-drilled everything out and used some 3.5 bolts to hold the mount in place, bolted to the studs which I found out werent my houses usual 16 on center (for unknown reasons) on this wall, and used four 8 bolts to straddle the studs for the top of the mount. So the first image is from the closet side showing the 4 bolts protruding from the wall, straddling the studs, and the other two pictures show the boards on the front side and how they also allowed enough offset from the wall for my outlet, and a bit larger of a footprint so I dont crush the drywall with the pressure of kids (or anybody else) possibly pulling on the TV. Bolts need to be cut, ground down and siliconed so they cant cut anything up, and the boards need to be painted still, but you get the point. Suffice it to say this isnt coming down, exactly how it should be in a house with youngins

If you are looking for a Full Motion TV Mount that is easy to assemble and install, this product might fit the bill. However, if you are hoping for a smooth and easy range of motion, you might be disappointed. The articulating arms are difficult to pull out and push in, requiring a lot of strength and potentially putting your TV and wall at risk of damage. Ive had to remove the TV to pull out the mount. While this may be frustrating for me, it is important to note that the product is still effective in its primary function of mounting the TV. I was able to remedy some of the stiffness by employing a generous amount of WD-40. It helped quick a bit, but the motion is not as fluid as other products I was exploring.

This is a great mount. It is very sturdy and holds my 75 LED TV very well. Had a single-arm extension mount on my heavy 55-inch 2011 3D HDTV, so I wanted to go with a double arm for this beast. I purchased my 4K TV the Saturday before Thanksgiving at my local club store, kind of an impulse buy. I knew the mount for my 55 TV was heavy duty, but I didnt know at the time that it only went up to 400 x 400 VESA and the new TV was 600 x 400 (its an old mount, before anything larger than 55 was common). No problem, company wasnt coming until Tuesday, and I saw I could order a mount at Amazon and have it delivered by Monday with Prime, so I did further research on mounts looking for one that would install into concrete. This one did, it was on sale, ordered. Shipping delay on Monday meant I didnt get the mount until Tuesday. Ok, no problem. Company has arrived at my house but no big deal. Mount arrives Tuesday. I go to install that evening after spending time with relatives. Open the package up, they have screws for every type of TV under the sun, but NO CONCRETE WALL ANCHORS WERE INCLUDED! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?! They advertise this as being able to install in concrete, the anchors probably cost pennies to produce and include, yet Mounting Dream made the horrible decision to not include concrete wall anchors? One can phone them and they will send them to you if you need them. Its 9PM at night, the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. Should have had this TV up on the wall yesterday, and now Im looking at FRIDAY EVENING at best, thats assuming Mounting Dream can overnight me the anchors. Every TV mount I have ever purchased in the past (7 to be exact) has included the concrete wall anchors. This was extremely frustrating to me. I didnt know if I wanted to just spend a lot more money for a good mount locally and return this one, but that would take time I didnt have, and this seemed like a nice mount. So I emailed Mounting Dream Tuesday evening at maybe 11pm. Low and behold, I had an email in my inbox the next morning, as apparently they are in Asia and have a shipping partner in the USA they contacted to get the concrete wall anchors to me on Friday. I applaud their fast shipping, but it doesnt change the fact they should have included these anchors in the box to begin with. By Wed evening I decided I didnt want to wait anymore, so I found anchors I had from another two other installations, with different screws, and made those work. So, mount is 5-star, customer service is 5-star, but because their failure to include concrete wall anchors as an intentional decision, after advertising this mount was for concrete installation, drops this down to a 3-star product. Mounting Dream, start putting the concrete wall anchors in with your mounts and stop inconveniencing customers and causing loads of frustration! (I waited a week to write this because last week I was ready to give this mount a 2-star review) So, if installing in wood, youll love it. If you can wait extra days for concrete anchors to arrive before you install, youll love it. If you want to get your TV up ASAP, and there was a shipping delay (not sure if that was Amazon or Mounting Dream), and you cant wait for concrete anchors to arrive after a holiday, go with a different mount that includes the anchors.

Great product! Fast shipping

Recently replaced an old 100+ pound 50 plasma with a new 65 Sony X900F that weighs about 54 pounds. The old wall mount for my plasma was the wrong VESA pattern, and it wasnt articulating, so a new mount was in the cards. Decided on the Mounting Dream (LOL! Awwww the Chinese are funny with their company names aimed at American consumers) Premium Full Motion TV Wall Mount (model MD2298) because it fit a variety of stud spacing, and while I knew the stud spacing from my old wall mount, I wanted to be able to take this with me to other condos in case of a move. Package arrived in 3 days and was sitting on my porch via USPS. No sig required. It was boxed in a brown box outer package that labelled it as a TV mount, and an inside brown box that housed the actual product. It was padded good and everything was intact. Installation was fairly easy, as I knew exactly where the studs were due to my previously installed wall mount. So I removed the old wall mount, blind eyed a few inches higher for the new one, slapped the template up, drilled the new holes, and had the new Mounting Dream main mount installed in under 30 minutes. I installed the hanging brackets on my Sony X900F, and was all set to go. Decided to add some cable management boxes and drop my HDMI cables and power cord inside of the wall, as my old plasma was a lazy install since I planned to replace it eventually. This took more time than installing the actual Mounting Dream wall mount, but was worth it. Its an inside wall and I knew there was no insulation and would be easy. Fished my cables through the wall, hung my new Sony X900F on the Mounting Dream wall mount with the help of my wife, fastened the lower brackets, and was all set to go. Assorted musings: - Instructions are very clear and easy to understand. - The mount is extremely solid, and while my panel only weighted less than half of the weight that this mount is rated to handle, I feel it will do just fine up to its rated weight. - After installation, its possible to rotate your TV +/- 3 degrees on the horizontal plane, so while its important to get your wall mount level, if youre off by a few degrees, youll still be able to turn the TV enough to level it out. - It squeaks slightly when extending the arm and closing it, but a dab of WD40 fixed the issue. - I wanted an articulating mount to make access to cables a lot easier, but extending the arm about 17-18 does make the TV appear larger when sitting on the couch. Free size increase! XD - I currently have an Apple TV 4K and an older Xbox One hooked up. Soundbar to be added at a future date.
