Not accident-proof
By TeraMedia
While this mount is fairly easy to install and use, it suffers from some design shortcomings. Most importantly, the plastic (yes, plastic) spring-loaded tabs that go in behind the bottom of the rail (the piece horizontally-mounted on the wall) can break. If you pull the bottom of the TV away from the wall, and the pull-tabs on the bottom have not been pulled out enough, it does not take a great deal of force to break one of these plastic tabs. Once both tabs are broken, there is nothing preventing an upward force on your TV from pushing it off of the mount... and onto the floor (or person) below.I broke one of the tabs. I am very wary of breaking the other. I will be replacing this mount with an all-metal one, perhaps a Chief.

Difficult to install, difficult to use
By Randy
I've used some of the simple wall mounts before. A guy at Best Buy convinced me that for an over the fireplace wall-mount, the 15 degree angle on this would be great. But then he also told me the tilt was controlled by a pull-string, so what did he know? One thing you should know right up front--the tilt control locks on this are way behind the tv, so if you select the install to leave NO spacing between tv and wall, forget being able to control the tilt. I would say ALWAYS use the max bolt extensions provided (no matter what they say about extensions being necessary for "irregular" walls). Second, the release of your tv from the mount itself is controlled by pull strings--test them and you'll find they don't always work effectively to dislodge your tv from the mount, and since the releases must work on both sides, you can have some pain pulling the strings and getting your tv off--and guess where those strings are located? For my 60", they were high up the back of the tv where you can't get at them if you choose a flush mount (I would attach extension strings to the manufacturer's strings). Finally, with two independent arms working the angle of the tv, guess what this means for getting an even viewing angle of the tv? Well, I can tell you that with a 60" TV, getting the two arms to be even at any given time is nearly impossible, so from time to time the TV just looks plain crooked. My suggestion is that if you want a tilt mount, try something else. This was my first experience with one, and it was not good.

Detailed instructions, simple & secure installation w/ 59" Plasma
By Nathaniel Allen
I spent quite a bit of time researching before selecting this mount, based primarily on other reviews of other Sanus models including their VLT15. My primary objective was a high quality mount from a reputable manufacturer, with a slim (close to wall) profile, but with provisions for easy cable access. Secondary was cost, and I preferred the price of this VLT14 to the near double price of the VLT15 that includes a post-installation leveling feature that I felt would be unnecessary.Originally I intended to use this with a 50" unit, but ended up with a 59" Samsung Plasma. The VLT14 fits the Samsung's large 600mm x 400mm VESA mounting pattern without a hitch, although I am just one hole away from being maxed out.The installation is simple, with clean and easy to follow line illustrations, one step per page. The instructions cover mounting the brackets to televisions with flat and obstructed backs, and included with the kit are a variety of spacers and mounting bolts to seemingly work with anything. In the case of my Samsung, there are two phillips head screws that slightly interfere with the brackets (preventing them from laying completely flat against the back of the TV), but adding only the thinnest spacers that Sanus included with the kit prevented this from being an issue.The horizontal piece that bolts to the wall is set up for either 16" or 24" stud spacing, but will not span 32 inches (two stud bays). With the assistance of a stud finder, a cordless driver and a 13mm socket, I had this piece bolted up in no time. Rather than use a bubble level as the instructions recommend, I simply measured down from the ceiling molding, and have this bracket level withing 1/16" of an inch -- easier and more precise than what I could hope for from a cheap bubble level.I was nervous hanging my 60+ lbs. plasma on these dinky little tabs, but reassured myself that I was using a reputable brand that was capable of holding even more, and even hung my 200 lbs. of body weight off of the bracket I just installed to ensure it was tightly affixed to the wall and not about to budge. In reality, fitting the TV was quite a simple solo operation, and the TV clicked right into place. In some respects, it was actually easier than hanging a clock or a picture frame because the wall mounted bracket is so easy to locate.Once it's hung, the heavy TV is very easy to tilt to a satisfying downward-facing angle, and there are two thumb- or allen wrench-operated friction screws to make this adjustment harder or easier. It's also quite simple to pull the television out from the wall a few inches for rear cable access.After hanging it, I held my hand to the TV haphazardly for a few minutes while peering behind, making sure everything was *really* connected correctly and nothing was tearing out of the wall. Gradually after a few test shakes and wiggles, I now trust this mount implicitly. It has a minimum of moving parts, holds the television close to the wall, and is completely unobtrusive. For the most part, I won't have to touch it. If I find myself in a situation where I have an HDMI cable I need to connect / disconnect frequently, I'll opt to connect a short 6-inch HDMI "dongle" to the appropriate port.If there's one weakness, it's that this mount and the TV sit so close to the wall that it's not easy to string cables out of sight behind the TV. Certainly not across the horizontal wall bracket. Very careful planning / placement of any wall cutouts is a requirement to prevent the brackets from squeezing cables against the surface of the wall.
