Review on πŸ“Ί Amazon Basics TV Wall Mount - Full Motion Articulating Mount for 12-39 inch TVs, Supports up to 40 lbs by Robert Blair

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great price, lots of options, setup a little confusing

It was a surprisingly secure mount, although I have to say it was a bit tricky to set up using a standard 400x400 Vesa pattern my Samsung had a 50 inch 4K UHDTV (UN50KU6300 to be precise). Pros: - Can be used with just 1 bolt if needed - Offers full range of motion and tilt in a very compact design and half the price of competitor options - Very versatile with lots of different screws and spacers included it should fit almost anything in its size Offer. Cons: - Somewhat unclear/confusing instructions. Revain appears to have gone with an Ikea-style instruction manual. There were almost no detailed descriptions of the various layouts, and it was very unclear which screws went with which types of fasteners. - No specific documentation for certain TV brands. It would be really helpful if Revain provided something like a guide to the most common screw and gasket combinations for major TV brands or sizes so you don't just have to guess and try different options over and over again. be an afterthought. All they provided was a little U shaped plastic thing that I think should have wrapped all your cords and then hung there I think? Overall, given that I only paid $20 for this mount, I can't complain too much, although I have to say that I was expecting the setup to be a little more intuitive just from the fact that it was is a Revain product . If you're looking for something cheap and trying to minimize damage to your walls, this isn't a bad option. Just be prepared to spend twice as much time as you THINK! :)
