Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating :  - Very satisfied with this product
First off, for those of you that are still wary of making purchases online like I am, I found this to be a very easy and confidence building experience for purchasing online. No problems.
I received the product and unpacked it and my first reaction was WOW, this thing is huge, but then again, I am using it to mount a Philips 52" LCD. I installed the mount myself. My biggest concern was not hitting the studs. I used a stud finder going over the same area's multiple times, just to be sure. I then used a drill with a small bit to drill through where the studs were and drilled where I thought would be the outside parts of the stud (so I could hit the studs in the middle). The tools I used were a laser leveler, some painters masking tape, ratchet and socket, phillips screw driver, stud finder, drill.
The mount comes with a template that you set up prior to actually installing the mount, which helped out great and I was confident after using the template that the mounting would be square. The mount itself is fairly heavy and my son had to help me hold it up. The lag bolts are significant and I pre-drilled the holes to ease the pressure when installing the bolts to keep the studs from splitting. All in all, it was an easy install and supports my television just fine. I like all of the adjustments that can be made with the articulating arm. I did confirm that this very same mount is sold at Circuit City for ~ $650 which I thought was a crazy mark-up, so for the price you pay for this product here on Amazon, it's a steal! Good luck and I hope you enjoy your purchase as much as I do! + See Full Customer Review |  |
