> 3 dayIts 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!

> 3 dayYou think to yourself, this shouldnt work that easily... but it does! Easy to attach to your TV (even an older model like mine). Easy to attach to the wall - dump the level, they tried, but the round level wont stay put, I used a small square one that same with something else. Tips: 1. Install anything you need to to the back/side of the TV before hanging it. You wont be able to toggle it out far enough to install any of those things when its hung. 2. Two people to hang is optimal. I did it alone and did manage to get the TV portion of the hanger into the wall mounted part of the hanger - BUT I was seriously worried that it wasnt secure. You cannot actually see if youve connected everything correctly, you have to just keep checking with a level, and tugging on it.. 3. I did not install then hanging wall cord thingie. No point really because I recommend you install all cables etc. before hanging on the wall. I was going to drill into the wall and run the wires down inside it, but Im going to get another TV in the future so I wasnt sure where the wires would be. Instead I covered them with cord cover and painted it the same color as the wall. Voila! This gadget has made a TV on a stand now look modern and elevated.

> 3 dayIve bought TV wall-hanging kits before. They were expensive and are still in the boxes because of all the stud-finding, measuring, drilling, leveling, etc. involved. This kit was simple and fast. The only measuring was deciding how high to mount the TV, so I just decided where the top would be, attached the back hanger, lined up the wall rail on the back of the TV, and measured to determine how high the top of the wall rail should go. Then it was just a matter of tacking the nailing strip on the wall, hanging the TV and attaching the cables. For the small TV I was putting up in my bedroom, the whole process was a one-person task that took about 15 minutes and was less difficult than hanging a mirror. The only tools required are a Philips screwdriver and a small hammer. Even with an older TV with all the connections on the back rather than facing the side, the tilt allowance gave sufficient room to reach behind the TV to attach everything. I also really appreciate that the kit included screws for all the various hole sizes that the back of the TV might have, so I didnt have to guess or go out and hunt them. If you just need your TV to hang flat on the wall, this is definitely the kit to buy. Ill be ordering more of them myself.

> 3 dayI was pretty skeptical of this, considering Im hanging a $400 TV on a $30 contraption that I couldnt understand how it worked. However, 2 years later, the TV hasnt slipped, fell, or sagged. Despite using just 10 little picture frame nails and a piece of bent aluminum to keep it there. No idea how this is the case, when theres products out there that require drilling into the wall with huge screws, but it works! Took me about 10 minutes to get the nails in, 30 seconds to get the TV piece screwed on, and voila! Im moving houses now, and this little engineering miracle will be coming with me. Small bit of toothpaste into the nail holes, and landlords wont know the difference ;)

> 3 daySuper easy to put up! Just make sure you angle the nails downwards and not straight in.

19-11-2024The hangman is perfect and its 5 star rating is well deserved. If you are a renter or home owner that is looking for a non obtrusive way to mount your tv then look no further. Having read reviews prior to purchase, I have a few things for you to consider. 1.) Make sure this works with your TV. The odds are it does (I have a samsung 4K tv) 2.) When mounting, make sure to forcably “push in” the bubble level into the bracket. It will snap in making installation much easier. 3.) ENSURE THAT THE MOUNT ON YOUR TV INTERLOCKS WITH THE MOUNT ON THE WALL. When I first installed it, I thought I had interlocked them. However, upon further inspection, I found out that the two were merely balancing on one another 4.) Keep in mind that there is little to no room for cables in between the wall and tv (it is very flush to the wall). This was not a problem for me. This product is cheap enough to give it a shot. I am very happy with my purchase.
