📺 Optimized Search: Sanus Premium Tilting TV Mount - VLT5B1 for 42-90-inch Flat Panels Review

I bought this block because it looked so simple and clean. It's easy to see from the side as you enter our home, so looks mattered. I had a small problem with the installation, but that was due to having to drill through porcelain tile to install the unit. So the tile is to blame, not the mountain. After drilling the holes, it was very easy to mount the TV on the bracket. The positive click you hear is very useful when you're holding a large TV and can't see around it. It was also very easy to…

Definitely the best wall mount for your flat screen TV. This is such a simple and effective design. When installing on brick I would recommend Bosch Daredevil Carbide 3/8" bits for masonry. I used a smaller drill bit to start, although the brick is very brittle. I drilled 3" deep holes first with the smaller bit and then with a 3/ 8" Just go slow and steady and let the beat do the work. Awesome is the inclusion of a magnetic scale! Move the TV slightly to one side or the other. I have a few…

I had my 100 pounds. The 75-inch Samsung TV has been attached to it for about a week and hasn't fallen off the wall yet. The instructions say at least 16" studs, but for some reason mine were only 11.5" taller than my chimney. It didn't matter, there were plenty of mounting slots for non-standard bolt spacing. The TV sits much closer to the wall than I thought it would. The included probe was helpful for finding the exact center of the bolts when you tighten them Don't trust your bolt finder I…

I bought a 75 inch Samsung 70QR flat screen TV and needed a solid wall mount. I chose this mount for its easy installation, robust and compact design. It comes with a wall template so once you've found your studs (should be installed on top of the studs to support the full weight) the template will make things easier. Drill pilot holes, use the screws provided and attach the frame to the wall. The other part of the TV mount is well made and stable with the included adapters. It also has…

Excellent attachment; but I chose other screws from the ones supplied. I used them to mount the Samsung UN65KS8000. UN65KS8000 includes wall mount gasket kit; and these gaskets fit perfectly *in* the mounting holes on the back of the device. However, the VLT5-B1 does not have screws long enough to fully pass these spacers. VLT5-B1 includes its own spacers; However, these standoffs are larger in diameter and sit over the mounting holes, putting pressure on the TV's plastic casing. Perhaps this…

References: home master who has installed about 10 TVs now. My first Sanus mount. It's worth the extra money. Build quality is excellent apart from the attention to detail. The back brace itself is sexy, with a clever way to hide the [wall] mounting hardware. The suspension alignment is fantastic. For large TVs that require a horizontal offset of 6 inches or more (due to stud placement and desired TV placement), a one-piece wall mount is critical to provide a level platform to hang the TV.

I didn't want to hang my brand new 65 inch LG OLED TV on a cheap bracket. No, I have to sleep at night. So I paid a few dollars more and got this sanus. Its installation was pretty easy. If you don't already have a spike finder, a nifty little magnetic spike finder is included. The idea is that he finds the nails or screws that were used to hang the drywall, and then he has a little needle to help you find the ends of the studs. I have a spike finder so I didn't rely on it, but it was fun to…
