Easy to install - Very Sturdy, Affordable Mount for Flat Screen TVs
This is the 2nd Cheetah TV Wall Mount that I have purchased. This one was purchased for my Vizio E-50 TV (50"). The mount comes with everything you need to install for various VESA mount configurations. What I recommend you use with the install is a stud finder, drill, and associated bit/screw bit.
I also installed the Datacomm 50-3323-WH-KIT behind the TV for cable management so that I could run the include 10' HDMI cable and power inside the wall versus having the cables hang down from the TV. You can't beat this mount for the price; it's sturdy and the viewing angle is adjustable. Because it's in my bedroom, I do have it an angle, which puts the top of the TV about 4.25 inches from the wall. Even at this angle, you can't see any of the cables as you enter the room (the include velcro cable management ties work perfectly.
UPDATE (6/29/2018): I just purchased my 3RD CHEETAH MOUNT to install a Samsung QN75Q7 Flat 75" QLED that my sister just bought for her new home. Although the pre-assembled VESA 400x400 configuration may benefit owners of smaller TVs, it did take a few extra minutes to unassemble and reassemble the mount to use on her 75" TV. Although the Samsung is a 400x400 VESA configuration, due to the weight of the TV (90lbs), I wanted to make sure the mount was attached to the wood studs which required the expanded pieces. WARNING FOR ANY OTHER SAMSUNG TV OWNERS (65" or larger): The four (4) M8 screws provided by Cheetah are not long enough to use on the VESA hanging rails. I had to go to the local hardware store and pick up longer M8 bolts (about 20mm longer) and about $0.37 each. Other than that hiccup, the mount works great for her new Samsung TV.
Like most Amazon shoppers, I count on honest, unbiased reviews. I hope you have found this review helpful in making your purchase decision.
