Review on πŸ“Ί AVF ESL422B-T Tilt and Turn TV Mount: 2 AV Shelves, Cable Management - Black (25-47 inch TV) by Jose Fongdara

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Exactly what I was looking for

I was looking in the back room of our shop for an inexpensive single shelf TV and DVR system mount. This way we can easily control the cameras to see what's going on. Regarding the installation, I have to agree with other comments. The installation itself was easy; but the instructions are terrible. I sat and stared at the first page where you choose the type of install for about 5 minutes before realizing what the point was. To make matters worse, I had to collect the first TV to return for another set because the first one didn't quite work. You may think that I already understand how the instructions work; but I probably spent more time looking at this site the second time than the first time. A lousy guide is enough to earn at least one star - and I could see Docking 2, but the product itself works great. Anyway, after going through the first page of the instructions (the rest is pretty easy) this bracket is exactly what we were looking for and here's what I really liked about it: 1) All the pictures show 2 shelves , which are installed under the TV; but it's a lot more flexible than that. We use it with just one shelf mounted above the TV and it works great for what we need. With this bracket you can really mount your shelves and TV anywhere. 2) The cable management system is excellent! In our case, we are using a 4-camera surveillance system, which means a lot of cables going to the DVR. The cable management system is good enough that we can't see any cables, except where the power and cords run through the floor. 3) The bracket is very strong and easy to adjust; However, the TV does not hang too far from the wall. 4) The shelves look good and are sturdy too. (Note that we're only using one shelf for our use.) Overall, I highly recommend this mount for both price and functionality. If they just rewrote the first page of the instructions this would be a solid 5 star product not a 3.5 star product.
