Review on ๐Ÿ“บ Swift Mount SWIFT440-AP: Versatile TV Wall Mount for 26-55 Inch TVs, Black - Enhance Your Viewing Experience by Gary Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's all about the screws.

Bought for a 39 inch TV. The price is correct. Easy to attach to TV. The only question is whether or not you need to use locations. There are no instructions in the instructions, there is enough information in the instructions for mounting on the wall. The only issue we had was using the screws that came with the mount. The instructions said to drill a 1/8" pilot hole. It felt too small and the screws were difficult to tighten even with soap. Probably should have asked for a larger drill bit. After removing the screws and applying more soap 2 of the 3 screws went in easily.The 3rd screw went in easily but the head broke off with the screw in the hole when it was almost tightened.I used a cordless screwdriver in manual mode because the larger diameter made it easier to use than a regular screwdriver. A trip to the hardware store for new screws ended with a clerk telling me I shouldn't have unscrewed the head off the screw. I drilled new guide bushings for the #14 screws I bought (looks like the sized screws that came with the bracket) based on the information I found online and the bracket was easier to i install. I didn't use the other 2 screws that came with the bracket due to material issues. I suggest buying the same size wood screws instead of the supplied wood screws and using lots of soap to make it easier to attach the bracket to the wall.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Expensive
