Heavy Duty Mount

We purchased this mount for our 77" Sony OLED TV. The mount is rock solid but is probably overkill for the Sony. The mount is not difficult to assemble if you take your time. We especially like the adjustable distance to the wall and the ability to tilt the TV downward.

Money well spent. I have an 85" tv that is heavy and I was worried about mounting it. Not anymore! This mount is built like a brick s**t house. Heavy duty and sturdy built with well thought out design. Extremely pleased with my purchase!!

Sturdy. Probably pretty easy to assemble and install for people with some ability. Some of the plastic covers are flimsy and I broke one. But they are all hidden and it wouldn't keep me from buying one again or recommending it. I liked the hardware and provision of additional mounting hardware even though you don't need it. You might need it. I would recommend not using the on-line mounting alignment and height adjustment "help." Just figure the height for yourself and hang it where you want it. The "help" caused me to get the wrong height and I had to re-do it with the subsequent damage to the wall. I still recommend this product.

I would give this Sanus 2 stars for the Installation Manual which is contradictory, not in logical order and includes questionable advice; but, this thing is a beast in all respects except 1: Unfortunately, the "tilt feature" is actually a "tilt bug" in that your 83" or other heavy TV will not hang vertically regardless of pre-install position and torque tightening. But, what can one do? Nada. Grin&bear it - and be glad your $5,000 OLED is safely hung.

It's doing well with my 65 inch tv. It will take two people to get it attached to the tv.

Stiff, difficult to position

Very solid. Installation is complicated and definitely needs 2 people to mount this heavy wall mount. Instructions are rather general, and not great on details. It took my electrician (who is very experienced with TV wall mounts) and myself 2 hours to get the unit mounted. Moving TV on wall mount is difficult due to stiffness of the arms/pivot points, even though I only have a 65" TV, well below its weight limits. There do not seem to be any friction adjustments to make this easier.

Expensive and Worth It!

Customer service to assist with the selection and purchase of this mount is deeply appreciated. This mount is heavy duty for sure! Although fairly heavy, the installation was straightforward. I loved that all the parts and necessary attachment screws were included with the mount. This holds an older, heavier 52" Samsung LCD/LED tv in a room corner. The arms are plenty long enough to mount my 52" tv in the corner and achieve the appropriate tilt for best viewing throughout the room. Being able to lift and mount the tv AFTER securing the bracket to the tv was literally a snap. Also purchased and added a soundbar to the mount. Needed to adjust the soundbar downward away from the tv to prevent speakers from rattling against the tv. EXCELLENT choice to meet my tv mounting needs. Thanks, Crutchfield.

Very Strong articulating mount. Pretty easy task to install and especially helpful with the Sansu Heightfinder online tool to correctly determine the location for the primary screws based on your TV and desired height.

Excellent mount and easy install

I cannot say enough good things about Sanus in general and this mount in particular. Had a mandate from the wife to clean up the TV watching area. The 1st phase involved getting the TV mounted to the wall and then sitting flush in the opening of the wall. I started searching for mounts and selected the Sanus VLF628. I was mounting a LG OLEDE9PUA, so understandably wanted something robust for such a great TV. The instructions provided by Sanus are excellent. And not just the instructions. They have help for you at absolutely every step. In the instruction manual are QR codes you can scan and watch a short clip on how to actually do the step they are describing. On the website, they have the 'HeightFinder' that allows you to select your model of mount and TV, enter in your viewing height and it gives you all the measurements you'll need on your wall. My LG has an offset (lower) than standard VESA pattern. I called Sanus and within 5 minutes had all the info I needed (it was also in the HeightFinder) to answer my question. I installed my TV into an interior wall with studs. I would highly recommend having a stud-finder. It made the job much easier. Very impressed with Sanus.

It is a well designed product. It is not an easy installation. However, the instructions define the proper steps. Read them closely! Also, it is not light weight. I suggest installing into your wall studding. Much stronger and safer that way. Not inexpensive but it is worth the price.

Easy to install and immensely adjustable. At first I was surprised by the weight of it but each of the individual components are very manageable to assemble. Holds a 100+ pound 86" LG TV with ease.

Sanus Wall Mount.

Great sturdy wall mount. Future proofing for upgrade from 65" OLED LG to 90" when time comes to modify my custom cherry wood cabinet. Great being able to pull it out and change viewing angle when I want to. Not the cheapest mount around but if you have a higher end tv it's well worth it.

Seriously heavy duty and endlessly adjustable.

Very heavy duty! I got this to hold an 82 inch tv and it appears to do the job very well. It pulls a long way from the wall which allows you to make significant changes on the viewing angle of the tv. It also allows the tv to hug the wall when you want it flush. It comes with a huge variety of hardware to accommodate almost any type of tv. I am very impressed with the quality of this thing. No complaints!

Very sturdy and well designed mount. Easy installation with well written instructions and a plethora of hardware in included for all possible configurations and needs. One negative is then the arms are extended maximally laterally they do not go flush to the wall. There is approximately an almost 12 inch distance between the wall and back of the panel. When centered in the mount the disntance is minimal, approximately an inch or two.

This wall mount works great. It is a heavy, well-built unit that supports the TV and allows for smooth and easy placement. I am using it to support a 35 pound 55 inch TV. The Sanus mount is rated to support a 150 pound TV. I am sure that it can do it with ease.

High Quality Mount!

We chose this mount based on our own reviews and recommendations from our advisor. The unit is very well made but quite heavy (needs to be to support up to a 90" 150# TV). Installation instructions were very good and the online support from Sanus was excellent. When using the online "height finder" to center your viewing area, be sure you do your actual measures (from the top of the TV) to place in the software. The program will automatically insert a distance (based on your model of TV) but it may not be accurate, mine wasn't. I called Sanus and they admitted that at times there data base may not be accurate for new TV models. If I had used their measurements the TV would have been 2" lower than I desired. Using my measurement (inserted into their program) the mount and TV height were perfect. Overall the install was very easy, except lifting the 85" TV. However with a little engineering and patience, my wife and I (both post Medicare age) were able to installl the TV on the mount with no issues. The movement of the mount is very versatile but be aware that once you mount a 100# TV, the mount takes some effort to reposition. Overall, very satisfied with the quality, instructions, online support and pricing I recieved from Crutchfield. Crutchfield service and advice was excellent.

Great TV wall bracket! Well built, solid, easy to install. The bracket's best feature is its ability to extend from the wall 28 inches, makes wiring connections very convenient and fast! Highly recommended!!!

Does the job well

Does a very good job of wall-mounting my Samsung 82" TV. The instructions and Web-based mounting calculator were mostly clear and straightforward to follow, even though I'm not much of a handyman. Read through the instructions ahead of time to know all the tools you'll need on hand. Definitely a two-person job to lift the TV into place (you might need three). I bought a $50 high-tech stud finder on Amazon to make it much easier to find the oddly placed studs in our wall, giving me more confidence than trying to use the traditional $10 magnetic kind.

Installed. Good directions. Used the web page in the manual to figure out the height. Very heavy and sturdy. I have NO worries about it ever coming down. Works as awesome as I hoped. Glad I spent the extra $ on a good quality mount.

No Worries

Sturdy and solid. I have no worries that my 70 lb. 65" ZTV is going to wind up on the floor. of note: the bolts in the pivot points were tightened by someone who must have had an air hammer. Easily loosened with the allen wrench provided with the mount. Just loosen them a bit and move the arms about 6-7 times. No sweat once it's up on the wall -- the arms move very nicely. The TV may rotate about 1/2 in. when being moved. Easily tipped back to get it exactly level when in place. Sanus tech rep says that it's the nature of the beast, since the whole TV is suspended at a single point. There is a part that Sanus will send if requested -- it's just some felt strips to insert at the mount connection to take a little play out. Sanus should include it in their box. Now you know -- call Sanus and ask for it. The TV does go on and off the mount easily if you have a friend to help. Excellent design. Overall, a keeper.

The provided template and instructions were easy to follow. Hung a 55 inch 35 pound TV with minimum problems. A suggestion as to mounting frame. If it was about 2 inches plus wider, for example 32 inches instead of 29 1/2 , then it could span 3 studs placed on 16 inch centers. In our case, we had from center stud 14 inches center to center on one side and 16 inches center to center on the other side ( Probably new construction method to accomodate both smaller and larger mountings of TV's of various sizes above a gas fireplace). Also adding some dimensions on the framework so as to make it easier to determine cable lengths would be a great help. Still a great mount.

Great TV mount. Hung a 65" Sony 4K TV on it without issues. I would recommend you use the Sanus height guide. It very simple to get your TV height right.
