Samsung 49 " TV Wall Mount 31.5 lbs - FAIL

with professional hollow wall mounting anchors, the 75 Able to hold pounds per anchor I used 6 anchors total (2 in metal studs, 4 in drywall) I used a level to make sure the wall mount was square and also that the TV mount was square Everything looked great . However, after I mounted the 49" TV on the bracket, there was a slight tilt to the left and it would not fully close in the base without having to lift the TV. Upon rechecking the level with the TV on the Bracket the wall mount was ok but the tv mount was not level it seems the extra weight of the tv (31.5 lbs) causes that the arm and TV mount are misaligned. The guy defeats the purpose of a wall mount if the mount becomes unbalanced after the TV is installed. It looks like they didn't take that into account when designing this mount. Also, you really need to tighten the forward tilt screw before mounting the TV as it is extremely difficult to tighten once the TV is in place. There's also a tendency for the forward tilt to loosen up as you push and pull the TV mount to pop out. articulates, but if the mount and TV mount are not aligned for weight bearing, then using this mount is impractical. I'll try tightening the screws on the brackets to see if that helps. If not, unfortunately I will have to return this product and hopefully find another that will fit the wall mount holes in my wall.

Pros
