Best Buy Mounting Tv Above Fireplace

We purchased this TV mount to enable the TV to extend beyond the end of a fireplace. The TV is recessed in a pocket between the fireplace and a window. This mount allows us to telescope and turn the TV so all can see beyond the fireplace. I consider the unit exceptionally well-constructed and designed. The mounting kit contains a variety of fasteners to anchor the unit to the wall. In our case, we needed our own lag screws to secure the frame to the stud pattern on the wall. The unit is is rather ornery and cumbersome to install. Plan on two people to install. The mounting template works well. But it is important to measure the mounting slots in the unit's frame to ensure the one's chosen align with the wall stud's locations. I recommend using a level and drawing a centerline for the fasteners to follow. Pre-drill holes into the wall studs. I strongly recommend not mounting through the drywall with plastic expansion anchors. There will be a lot of bearing on a material that is not designed for long-term structural integrity. We use all of the mount's 40" extension. It certainly meets our needs.

I got this to mount my 55 TV above our fireplace. This mount is very sturdy and heavy duty and not light. It came with all of the mounting hardware which was a plus. The only modification I had to do was build some brackets to extend it out to the edge of the fireplace mantel. Otherwise the TV would have set to high for our room. Our issue, not the mount.

We purchased this TV for mounting over our fireplace in our new home and it is perfectly sized and high quality. We've truly ramped up movie nights and overall TV experience enjoyment at our house!

Using it to mount my tv over a stone fireplace.

As the headline says, Above Excellent. If I needed another 32GB card, I's buy it.

Perfect length. We uses this for our tv above the fireplace. It was treaded though to cabinets on the side of the fireplace.

Above and beyond my expectations!!

I purchased the first VIZIO 65 in August for our Retreat and a second in October for mounting above the fireplace. We have a third VIZIO (older model) in the Guest Suite

Best mounting arm for remotes.

Best purchase I ever made. My son suggested this mount for me to go over my fireplace. I had never heard of such a thing but he said "trust me mom you will love it" and I did. Today I watched the young man I hired install it and was surprised he said it really wasn't that difficult to mount. Took him about 45 minutes to assemble, mount and put TV up. It's easy to pull down and raise back up. When I'm in the kitchen it swivels and I don't miss a thing plus my neck and shoulders no longer hurt from looking up because I can bring it down to a comfortable level to watch now.
