Find Best Price at Amazon"I looked at a lot of options both on Amazon as well as elsewhere before settling in this one. Included are a complete assortment of screws, bolts and washers (all neatly organized and labeled in individual packets), a double-sided spanner wrench, a very nice magnetic level, and even a 10' HDMI cable. I just enlarged it with a round needle file, but since they don't include any spares, if you don't have a file or another washer laying around, you'll need to get one. Just thought I'd throw that out there in the interest of full disclosure. Once this was installed, I was impressed with not only the sturdiness, but also with the complete range of motion."
"8/28/2017 UPDATE: The review and the pictures below are accurate for the TV mount I purchased on 01/26/2015. I didn't use the included lag bolts because of the poor quality complaints in previous reviews. I didn't want to take the chance to strip the included bolts so I bought 5/16-9 2-1/2 lag bolts from Lowes (item 63396) and a box of 1/4" Toggler bolts (Lowes item 118084). On one of the 65" TVs and the 50" TV, the 2x4 studs were spaced perfectly and I was able to mount them using 4 lag bolts each. On the other 65" TV, the stud was about 2" off center so I put 2 lag bolts in the stud and 4 toggler bolts in the left and right most holes."

"If you are looking for a super high quality articulating mount this is it."
"Plus, I wanted a good mount that would allow me to shift the viewing angle easily. So, after a lot of research I finally decided on this mount and paired it with the PowerBridge TWO-CK recessed wall outlet. There's a lot of things to consider when cutting into an existing wall. (e.g. don't try to saw through any existing electrical wires) I then ran the my cables through the wall, set the power boxes in place and hung the TV on the mount. I have to admit, I was extremely nervous about doing this as I wanted it to look good and had a general idea of how this whole thing would play out, but until I was able to screw the last clamp in place, I was nervous."
"I assembled and installed the ECHOGEAR Full Motion Articulating TV wall mount to a brick wall. Then I installed an old Sony 46" KDL-46V2500 LCD TV in 51" enclose which is heavier than 70" LED TV. It was easy to install the two TV rails on the back of the TV, I used two of the longer screws included in the ECHOGEAR kit."
"Pros: - Well made with quality materials. - Easy to install but definitely need a second pair of hands to hold it up. - Pulls out and swivels with ease. Cons: - Slight bulk due to full articulating but that's more preference."
It fits TVs with mounting holes as close as 3"X3" or as wide as 16"x16" (in TV terms - VESA 75x75mm to 400x400mm). This advanced welding technology makes the mount sturdy, and ensures mounted TV stable and secure, supporting TV weight up to 99 LBS. Includes all necessary mounting hardware This mount ships with hardware for both wall and TV mounting. Heavy duty unit fits for most of 26-55" TVs up to 99 LBS, with max VESA of 400 x 400mm/mounting holes spacing.

"Just remember to predrill your studs before you try driving the lag bolts that are used to secure the mount to the wall. And, you should use the outermost holes on the mount...they're 16" apart and that coinsides with the distance between stud centers. Your TV might not seem as if it weighs much, but it can creat a lot of force when it's pulled away from the wall, and unsupported drywall will not handle the forces generated by moving and adjusting your TV over and over."
"All the necessary hardware was included and the bracket itself is every bit the quality of the name brands they sell at the big box stores for five times the price. Update: After several months of use, this bracket continues to impress."
"I found this to be a quality, solidly constructed, articulating wall mount for my 55" TV. If mounting on wood studs with 16" centers, you may not be able to place the mount exactly where you want. It can also be mounted on solid wood or concrete. Mounting on concrete requires a "hammer drill" and hammer drill bit for concrete, so an investment in equipment may be required. It will take two people to lift a large TV onto the mount. Since the mount adjusts, you do have adequate clearance to place wiring after the TV is installed."
"I wanted one with full range and I felt that this mount did a good job providing swivel and tilt options."
"When my kids want to watch the TV in the kitchen area, easy to change angle OR when I want to watch from my workout area."
"But the mounting of this product is not for the light hearted, I read a lot of reviews about the mounting limitations and it is not that the product is defective but because people do not understand the two stud requirement and they do not read the instructions."

"I'm a handy guy but I was a little intimidated looking at everything in the box but I made this mount a project for the weekend and got it INSTALLED IN UNDER 30 MINUTES (32 inch tv. - You can use the cable ties to keep the cords looking neat or you can drill through the wall to hide them (takes a few mins). - I have included the picture of the Hillman Snap Toggle bolts if you want to try them out."
"This is probably the best TV mount I have ever mounted!"
"This is the first mounting dream TV wall mount I purchased and I liked it so much I bought a second Mounting Dream mount for a different TV."
"Note that the wall anchors that are included are intended for use in a concrete wall, not for drywall."
"We have a 48" flatscreen mounted with this through drywall backed by concrete block in our basement."
"Now put those two small screws back in so the tv doesn’t bounce up and off the wall arm. Those two small retention screws WILL NEVER GO BACK INTO THE BRACKET WITH THE WEIGHT OF THE TELEVISION. Soooo I bent paperclips through the two holes so the tv won’t jump up and off the bracket arm."

"Perfect size."
"I read one review that said you can't fit cords with the bulky thing near the connection but I fit the Kinect cord through and the thing on that connector is massive...seriously. Reasons for 4 instead of 5 stars: -Plastic feels a little weak, but that's usually the case with plates like these. -Paint on heads of screws comes off while screwing the plates to the wall. -Kit should come with wider base plate to match wider opening in top plate. -As other reviewers have stated, I don't think you should be able to unscrew the notch so far the thing falls off into the wall. -As other reviewers have stated, the brushes will slide out during install so I recommend adding a small piece of painters or electrical tape to cover the opening on the sides."
"I ran HDMI and coaxial cables through the slot and power with the included power cable (TV plugged into the top box, and used the included extension to plug the bottom box into the surge protector). The boxes have these neat little flaps that hold the boxes to the inside of the drywall, and the fit, using the included templates, plus these flaps make for a very secure fit."
"My only complaint isn't with this - it's with my TV plug, which is a sideways plug (rather than being bigger on the bottom,like most bulky plugs). Because of that, I can only use one of the two plus because the cord can't (and shouldn't) bend at a sharp enough angle to fit a plug into each outlet."
"I purchased this along with their soundbar version as well (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HIYACAE) and the install could not have been more easy or foolproof."
"Having the ability to just click and lock the wiring together makes it seem les this is the greatest invention to hang your television on the wall. There is no point hanging the television on the wall if you’re going to let the wires dangle behind it."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I purchased one TV stand and two audio stands (both in black/cherry) and they look great as a set. The storage behind the doors on the TV stand do not have nearly as much room as the audio stand, and are more appropriate for remotes, controllers, and manuals than media. When put together, the TV stand and two audio stands look like one complete unit as the height of the TV stand is the same as the bottom level of the audio stand. The only change I would have liked is if the entire top of the TV stand was black like the 50" TV stand as the shelves of the audio stand are all black (on the 70" model the center section of the top is black but the sides are cherry)."
"such a great stand, easy to set up and it adds a great look to my living room!"
"MOST PAIN IN THE @55 THING TO PUT ON IF YOU DO THAT STEP LAST AND IT DOES HAVE THAT STEP LAST!!!"
"I also like that before starting to put everything together the instructions were very clear on what kind of tools you needed to begin building it. All i can say is that you need to be very patient to build this piece of furniture because when we started taking out of the box it came with ALOT OF PIECES."
"it was really easy to assemble it, and it has a really great color.. when it comes to align the doors or make them look straight is kind of tricky but just just have to use your screwdriver and tight it or loose it , whatever your need is, and make sure both doors are aligned the same way."
"This was the most frustrating piece of furniture I’ve ever put together and I’ve owned a lot of IKEA in my life."
"My soundbar fits nicely, and it feels like a very solid stand."
"The box it arrived in was in good condition but once i opened it and laid all of the pieces out I found that two of the slim wood panels for the back of the stand were cracked. It turns out that the damaged pieces are not very essential on bearing the weight of my tv and the cracked sides face against the wall so they will not be seen."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Bad since I thought here comes that $multi-hundred bill for a service call to replace the fancy lamp the competing technologies (LCD, Plasma) use to poo-poo DLP. The lamp (assembly) is a piece of cake for we homeowners to replace; and cheap! Much easier and safer (little chance of damaging the bulb with fingerprints, which can cause it to explode). Search the web also for "tutorial: how to replace Samsung BP96-01472A Lamp" and a number of video clips illustrate how easy it is (e.g. YouTube hits)."
"This is a great value."
"I have purchased the O/E Osram Sylvania lamp previously which came with a properly labeled box and a lamp which had Sylvania markings and code dates on the lamp which this lamp did not have."
"They should not state Samsung if it's made by Lux Sharp(but I knew that going in) I purchased this replacement lamp and paid extra for 2nd day shipping. I just pray that when I get a new replacement lamp I don't then find out that this cheap junk I tried caused damaged to my TV! In the future I will pay more attention to only the negative comments because no way could this product get so many 5 stars unless they pay employees to write reviews for junk like this."
"Returned this bulb due to poor brightness and color on screen."
"Update: Purchased a new bulb from another vendor to put in my TV and the television will not stay on."
