> 24 hourThis is a great TV mount. You can mount it over an outlet for AC and cable. It pulls out from the wall about 5, so you have room to plug in cables. It tilts up and down and pivots side to side about 5 degrees, so you can eliminate glare or fine tune where its pointing. It allows the TV to move side to side so the studs dont have to line up with exactly where you want the TV. Great mount.

> 24 hourFairly easy to install, very sturdy, and allows leveling and minor height adjustments without taking it down. My least favorite part of this stand is the extendors - they are a bit wobbly so the TV is easily nudged off kilter, but since Im not usually touching the TV this isnt a big deal. My favorite part is the TV can be slid horizontally on the stand quite some distance - mine can travel nearly 12 to either side, though Im sure this will vary by TV model and mounting pattern. The TV height can also be adjusted significantly by changing the mounting bracket positions. This will be most useful if/when you buy a new TV as you probably wont need to move the wall mount even with a taller or shorter TV model.

> 24 hourThis product (model VLT6-B1) is very strong, and installation instructions are detailed, very clear, and well redacted. The mounting template is an exact match of the backing piece (the base that attaches to the wall) and is made of cardboard, which makes it very convenient for installation since it can be pasted onto the wall (with masking tape or painters tape) for proper positioning, leveling and alignment, and can be left in there while youre finding studs and drilling. Once drilling is complete, the template can be removed and youre left with all the perforations in place, ready to receive the actual backing piece. The assortment of hardware (screws, spacers, washers) is plentiful and allows for many specific configurations depending on the TV. The unit is UL-listed in file number E347672.

> 24 hourFor the price, it is good value. Holds my 85 inch Sony Bravia TV. And I like the ability to pull the TV forward to create space for getting to the sockets. One person can now plug/unplug all the cables. This is not just tilt at the top or bottom for better watching angle. The pull forward and push backwards feature is what I like the most. It was easy to install. My contractor installed it in like 5 minutes (with power tools).

> 24 hourThis is one of the best wall mounts I have installed. It’s extremely sturdy & easy installation with detailed instructions for any novice. I have already purchased three & used for 65 and 75 inch TVs weighting 85 pounds. Maximum weight capacity is 150 pounds.

> 24 hourThe most difficult part of installing the tv mount was finding the stud to anchor it. The features of leveling it after the tv was mounted worked great.

> 24 hourI bought a new house with a recessed wooden niche area for a tv above the fireplace. When I evaluated the mount left by the previous owner, I came to realize that there were not actually full sized studs behind the wooden trim. The mount left for me came out of the wall pretty far, so I figured that may be a liability and could cause my tv to fall. When I found this Sanus mount, I felt confident that it could do the job with a combination of lag and molly bolts to keep the TV attached to the wood. And since the TV now cant be moved very far from the wall, there will be less weight placed on the top bolts and less risk the TV could fall. I found the instructions to be incredibly well written. It was nice to have many options of what height to install the TV brackets on the back of the TV, so I could work within the space of the recessed TV niche and still make room for my soundbar. It was very easy to mount with two people (because of the size of my tv and the height of the niche) but I bet many people could mount this solo. The tilt feature was perfect to angle my TV down slightly for more comfortable viewing at the tall height the TV is at. I felt confident that I could have use additional soundbar brackets with this mount and it would have been able to accommodate the weight, but I ended up not needing them. Highly recommend this mount!

> 24 hourI was hesitant on spending a good chunk of money on a TV mount. Especially when there are so many that are relatively inexpensive. Fortunately, after doing some research Im very, very happy with this purchase. The mount is packaged well and had all the necessary parts to work on just about any TV. Mine was a 10 year old 46 Samsung with a 400x400 VGA. I used Sanus website to get the exact spot I should mount my TV. Its located above my fireplace so it was a bit tricky. However, their guide worked out real well! With the right tools, drill and ratchet, the hardware went into the studs real easy. Once the mount was sitting on the wall, I was able to life the TV and, essential, drop it into place. It snaps into place and is able to be done with one person... although HIGHLY recommended for two. A nice feature on this mount is the versatility. I can pull it forward several inches, to install wires, and also slide it back and forth to get it exactly in the center of my fireplace. The horizontal sliding was definitely needed as the studs above my fireplace were not centered. Lucky for me, they were still 16 apart. To release the TV, you pull down on two tabs. This feature is nice because its simple and quick. It locks and unlocks without much force. All in all, spend some extra money and get this mount. If you need horizontal movement because of needing to be centered in a room, but no use for side to side action, then this unit is a must. Enjoy!

> 24 hourGREAT PRODUCT, Highly recommend. The quality of this product is outstanding. The materials provided from the hardware, to the actual mounting brackets are all very high quality. The instructions provided are easy to follow and there is a video demo to walk you thru it all. I actually bought a different model Sanus from Costco and when I went to install it found out the studs over my fireplace were not the typical 16 inches on center. I ended up returning the product but frankly really liked the quality of their product. I called the customer service people and explained the dimensions I had to work with, the type of TV I had, and she was able to offer me a few options. I went with the vlt6-B1 as I wanted a tilt model and because the mounting brackets would work with my home. If the studs in your home are not 16 inches on center, this is the TV mount you want to purchase. It took me just over 1 hour with a friend to install. This mounting bracket is super strong. It says it is rated for up to 150 lbs, but I think that is a low ball figure. I liked how easy it was to mount the TV into the bracket and how you could hear it “Click” and lock into place. There is room to get your hands behind the TV to remove a HDMI cable and then push it back into position. The viewing angle was easy to adjust. Overall I would highly recommend not only this particular TV mount, but SANUS as a company as this product is well engineered and thought out. The price I felt was very good for the quality of this product at $136 it may be a little higher price than some, but well worth it.
