Fantastic mount:
I bought this mount after a couple of hours of Internet research. It came down to a choice between this one (Sanus VMDD26) and one from monoprice.com, which costs significantly less. I just wasn't convinced that that the monoprice mount would have the same quality and ease of movement as the Sanus, so I went with the Sanus mount. And wow! I'm blown away by its quality and durability. It's heavy, well-built and has a great shiny black finish. I hung a Panasonic 50PZ85U (50" plasma) which weighs just... more info
Beware the lag bolts:
Overall, this is a great product and very sturdy. However, beware of the four lag bolts supplied with the product (these are the bolts that secure the mount to the wall). One of the lag bolts snapped in half during our installation and I see that this has also happened to other reviewers of this product. Considering that these bolts are 'where the rubber meets the road' I highly recommend purchasing stainless steel lag bolts and tossing the Sanus supplied bolts in the garbage.
Heavy Duty - Easy to Install:
After much scrutiny, I chose this model mount for my Samsung A650 52" LCD TV. By Sanus's ratings, I could have selected the next model down (the VMAA26B), but I checked the mounts out in person and saw that this mount has two arms that hold this to the wall bracket, vs. only one arm on the VMAA26B. While I'm sure the next model down would also hold the set to the wall securely, this just gave me better peace of mind, and I didn't read about any leveling problems, as I had with the other mount.more info
Good Design, Lower Quality Parts:
The Design is great and exactly what i needed. It's got a very easy brainless setup but the LAG bolts were really cheap. I went and spent 3.86 on new lagbolts and asked amazon compensation! I broke 2 of the lag bolts just ratcheting them. They literally snapped off! I've never EVER had this with a lag bolt, ever. So that's my advice. If you buy this item spend about 3-4$ for higher quality lagbolts. Other than that it's a great item but because i got inferior quality bolts i can't give this item any higher... more info
