It's sturdy, well-constructed
This wall mount is everything it promised to be. It's sturdy, well-constructed, and I was impressed with the way it is engineered. So why not five stars? The instructions. Here's the thing .. it is put together very logically, and ample options/parts exist to accommodate anchoring choices and TVs. But none of that is explained for you.
Here's an example. Where I would want to read:
"Three sets of screws are provided for attaching the interface to the VESA holes on the TV. Use the set that fits the holes. The two smaller sets of screws require the use of the washer. The largest set of screws do not."
Instead the instructions read:
(A,B)+G,C
Really? Is that Backus Naur or Reverse Polish Notation?
There is nothing in the instructions to tell you which way the four brackets are oriented. Would it have killed them to say "The longer brackets are oriented horizontally, with the concave side facing the back of the TV." Finally, why not provide a table of the standard VESA mount measurements, and EXACTLY which hole on the brackets to use for that? Instead, it's trial and error.
So my advice: Buy this mount. It's perfect for the job. But use the picture on the Mount Factory website to help with assembly. That picture, unlike the one in the included instruction page, is high enough resolution to clearly see what goes where.
