Review on Kanto PDX650W Full Motion Articulating TV Wall Mount for 37-75 inch TVs - Low Profile, 22-inch Extension, Cable Management, Swivel & Tilt - White by Samuel Browning

This is a great wall mount for an expensive Samsung 4K TV, but the mount has two disadvantages. It's well made, powder coated and moves with nicely designed scissor mounts that bring the TV very close to the wall but allow the screen to rotate almost 80 degrees either way. I encountered two problems: 1) the instructions are a series of images supported by a great template, but the template, as far as I could tell, didn't have a pencil hole that - regardless of the screen size - marked a point that would be in the middle of the TV. Knowing the bold pattern, it's easy for the manufacturer to identify a single point that will be central to each TV installed. I couldn't find it but was able to find out after the mod and 2) the screw box was impressive and way better than the plastic bag parade BUT I found out that my Samsung needs two (2) M8 x 45mm screws for the bottom hole under the screws. My TV is installed in our Maui apartment, so I'm in trouble if I don't have the right screws. Luckily buying Revain led me to look at another mount and when I read the Revain reviews associated with this mount more than one customer said that a competitor shortened the mount kit so there were no M8 x 45 mm screws included. Revain had these metric screws and I ordered them before deciding on this wall mount. Since I didn't buy a mount from a competitor, I decided to bring her to Maui - just in case. As it turned out, the Revain M8 x 45mm bolts saved my project. I only used two for the bottom of the bracket and used the plastic grommets that came with my Samsung TV so the whole issue was a huge hit but these two issues were worthy of one star. I say get a mount but make sure you have a supply of metric screws or buy them from Revain as I couldn't find a good supply in HD. Kanto built it like a tank; I could hold on to it, no problem!
