Be sure to use a level at this point - there is no way to tip the TV left or right after the flat bracket is mounted to the wall, so make sure the wall bracket is level. I chose the flat mount since I wanted the TV as close to the wall as possible. You assemble those into a single wide unit (the three parts overlap), then screw that into two or three studs in the wall. I highly recommend the Sanus VMPL3-B.
Either way the brackets are bolted directly to the back of the TV through the VESA mounting screw holes. In the end I went with this system because of the positive reviews and the fact that it would support TV's larger than 55".I'm extremely satisfied with this mount. The tilt brackets are a little deeper and result in the TV mounting a bit further from the wall.It took two of us to lift my 160 pound Panasonic TV up to the wall plate, but it was quite easy to hook the brackets on the back of the TV to the wall plate, and once the locking levers were pushed down it made for a very strong, very secure mount. It's basically a two part system. I'd read the reviews of several different units though, and the Sanus VMPL3-B seemed to come out on top in terms of user feedback. As others described, it's extremely strong, easy to install and it comes with every bolt, screw, washer and spacer you could possibly need. There is a wall plate that comes in three pieces (so it'll pack into a small box). Then if you want to be able to tilt the TV down (if you are mounting it high on the wall), you use the tilt brackets.
I have no concerns about this coming off the wall until I want to take it off. This was the first wall mount I've done, so I didn't really know what to expect when I ordered this mounting bracket. The fact that it includes both flat mounting brackets and brackets that allow you to tilt the TV is an added bonus. If you want the TV flat on the wall, use the non-tilt brackets.
Congrats to Sanus on making a fine mount. It contained all of the hardware necessary (screws and lag bolts for the mount), and it is a very high quality.well built. Bought this for a 63" Samsung plasma, and it worked great. It came with extention pieces if the holes in the back of the TV are spaced too far apart, but right out of the box, the bracket fit the Samsung perfect. At about 110#'s that TV is going nowhere.
This makes it so sturdy that you could probably put your couch on it. - because that is where I have my 110v electric outlet and a cable pass-through mounted. The power cord and any other wires (HDMI, Coax, etc). why.
Extremely glad I bought this mount for my home theatre. Also easy to keep a 4 ft. The instructions are good and it is actually very easy to just sit on the floor with it for a few minutes and have it all figured out. Well below the rated capacity for the mount. What I really love about the mount is that it can be mounted to 3 studs. Another thing I liked about the Sanus was the large square holes in the mounting plate. Perfect for designing a "wire free" wall mounted TV.
level on it while you mount it. I am using this mount to hang a 55" LG flat panel TV, weighing about 85 lbs. The span of the mount is great, and should easily fit most 42" and larger sets. can be fed right through the mount, assuming you have planned it that way.It was very easy to position and install the mount.
I got this for my Pioneer Elite 60". Works perfectly, and was easy to install.
Just to avoid the installers leaving should this not work i bought the adapter.results: you DONT need the adapter/extender for this TV. Ok, after reading reviews on how this mount would not work with some panasonic sets (as well as some others), i was not sure if i needed to by the extended adapter. everything you need is in the box.my TV details:65" Plasma Panasonic TC-P65S1
