> 24 hourThey sell this at Walmart as well, which is where I originally bought this tv mount and decided to buy another one via amazon (Same price). I’m just mad that I have spent $150+ to have someone mount a tv before! I wished I knew about this then! It’s super easy! However, for my 55” tv, it was hard to screw in the wire down the middle, because you have to hang tv then tilt up and there wasn’t much space to drill. Tv pictured is a smaller tv so you can see where I drilled the wire in the wall (I think it’s a 45”?) Note that the middle hole to hammer the nails is NOT centered. I realized that after I hung the first TV (although it wasn’t off by much). For the second tv (pictured) I just measured the piece and used a pencil to mark the actual center by the nail holes on the mount. Can’t beat the price!

> 24 hourHave had this installed for several weeks now, glad I ordered this. I ended up having studs where this was being installed so I used an appropriate drill bit to make the holes slightly larger in order to use screws instead of the nails provided…worked out perfectly! Heads up if you choose to do this, make sure your screw head is the flat kind so it’s flush against the metal otherwise the slot on the tv won’t be able to slide in correctly

> 24 hourI was very impressed by this device. I had my doubts like anyone else. It takes a hammer and a drill or screwdriver. I have 58 tvs I was installing in my apartment. This leave small holes that are easily filled with toothpaste without notice. Its very study and I never worried about it falling. The tvs are still up without incident. I highly recommend anyone to buy one of these instead of a bulky mount you need a stud to hang.

> 24 hourI love the fact that it’s easy to install and my tv (55 inches) is closer to the wall. I have had mine for 3 months now. The price is fair too. I would recommend

> 24 hourGuess who mounted their own TV?! This woman did! I’m so excited about it if you can’t tell. I immediately ripped this very small box open as soon as it arrived. I can’t lie at first I was skeptical because the thing is just so.... SMALL? Surely this couldn’t hold an entire tv, right? WRONG. Those tiny little nails help up against my 55” Roku and I’m so pleased with the results. I’ve seen a lot of reviews about the level that comes with it so I did use both the level included as well as my own to make sure my TV hangs as straight as possible. 15 minutes and a can do attitude later and ✨VOILA ✨ my living room is beautiful and I’m so happy.

> 24 hourThis product is extremely easy to install yourself in almost any type of wall because it distributes the weight so well. This works in drywall or plaster in my opinion. I double checked the position by sliding the provided level across the wall and started by putting one nail in the center and then carefully at one end using the level. Once I was sure it was level I carefully put in a half dozen more. You don’t need to use all of the nails provided! After I hung the TV I realized that one side seemed a little higher than the other and I took the TV off and realized I just needed to make sure the screws on the back of the TV were positioned properly. It looks great and hangs fairly close to the wall, depends on the back of your shape of the back of the TV though as well as you can see in the pic. Make sure not to put it too high though since there isn’t any repositioning or adjusting for different viewing angles. With a deep and low sofa this was mounted on the wall at about 44” off the ground for example. Always good to put tape at eye level on the wall too see what works for you depending on distance and conditions.

> 24 hourIts worth noting that my use of these is a bit unique. I have a 65 Toshiba TV, and I enjoy it very much. My apartment wouldnt allow me to drill or tap into the studs in my living room wall so I was unable to use a standard wall mount hanger for my TV. So heres what I did... I actually reached out to Hangman Products directly, and let me start by saying that they were very friendly to communicate with. Since these are meant for 55 TVs and smaller, they do not work particularly well with anything larger than that. The reason for this is that TVs larger than 55 typically have the inputs and outputs facing outward from the back of the TV rather than downward. So for these, the cable clearance was a concern, but also the weight. Each of these is rated to hold 80 lbs. My TV is approximately 75 pounds or so. This is pushing the limit a bit, and made me a bit uncomfortable. But what about using two of them on the same TV? I can confirm that it works! Hangman Products stated the design limitations and weight concerns above when I spoke with them, but in theory, if the hangers could be spaced apart well enough that each was holding equal, or close to equal load, then it should have no problem holding. I risked my nice expensive TV to feed my curiosity, and the cat is still alive! I made sure to verify my measurements exactly multiple times and checked my math, and had my math checked, and mounted these into the walls with their suspiciously tiny picture nails. Trust me, when you start hammering these things in, you start getting quite concerned and thinking These puny things that I can bend between my fingers are going to hold up my giant TV???. Somehow, through science, physics, witchcraft, black magic, or some previously undisclosed alien technology, they do so just fine. Mine has been hanging on the wall since December, 2016, and it hasnt budged even slightly. To solve the cord problem, which is a real issue, I ran my HDMI cables into right angle adapters and filled up every input on the TV. Then I ran those cables into a project box that I built and used HDMI, TOSLINK, and other wall plates, and mounted it underneath the TV. So if I ever need to switch inputs, its right there under the TV, which has turned out to be easier than it was when the TV was sitting on the top of the entertainment center. OVERALL: Great product. Ingenius. Im a believer, they work. Its a tough breath to take before you let your hard earned money rest on these seemingly puny things, but breathe easy, these wont let you down... UPDATE (3/12/2020): Glad that this was helpful to so many folks. Id like to update that we have since moved from our apartment and into a new home. While uninstalling these mounts, the screws had to really be pried loose to come off, they hadnt moved a millimeter and were solidly still in the wall. I also decided to reuse them in our master bedroom in the new house for the big TV using the same technique described in my original review, and that TV has been hanging on the reinstall of the same mounts since 2017 and its still firmly in place. These really are awesome!
