Review on Enhance Your Viewing Experience with Mount-It! Tilting TV Wall Mount Bracket by Andrew Young

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Love it. Easy to install but may require a drill.

I have a 49 inch Samsung 8000 series TV. The screw spacing is 400 x 400, 4 screws/bolts M8 x 43-45 cm are required to mount the TV. The MI 303b supports a 400 x 600 bolt spacing, so my set was at the extremes of a dimension. All of this is obviously background. The M8 was 40cm long which made it too short to be used with Samsung pads. That didn't bother me because I chose to use the OEM seals, so it's not a problem with the kit. Considering what was included, I found that I could fold the spacers to use the 40cm screws in the kit. The only problem was when I screwed the brackets to the back of the kit. If you look at the picture there are holes at the top and slots at the bottom, a clever arrangement that improves functionality. However, M8 bolts easily go through the slots but not through holes. I had to drill the top hole (I'm on the ends of the bracket for my kit) before I could insert and tighten the M8 bolt. No problem if you have a drill and a drill bit of the right size, which I do. The rest of the installation went smoothly. The wall mount is wide enough to screw onto two studs and the locking mechanism is excellent. Five star rating except for the screw holes.
