VisionMount Tilting Mounts

Tilting mounts tilt up and down for better viewing from the couch, bed or even floor. A tilting mount is recommended when reflections from windows or lighting interfere with TV viewing or when multiple viewing angles are desired.

Sanus Systems' Virtual Axis tilting system provides easy adjustment of viewing angle with just the gentle touch of a finger. Adjustable TV brackets offer lateral shift ability to allow perfect TV placement, even with off-center wall studs.

When installed, the display is positioned just 2.5 inches from the wall, for a clean, low profile appearance. The universal mounting pattern fits virtually any 30 to 56 inch LCD or plasma TV, up to 130 lbs. in weight, and a locking mechanism secures the TV in place.

Built Tough

The VMPL50 features solid heavy-gauge steel construction, providing serious strength and durability with a sleek, high-tech look to fit most settings.

Easy Install

The stud-mounted VMPL50 offers simple installation, with all necessary hardware included.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Mount for an Excellent Price, November 22, 2008

This review is from: Sanus VMPL50B VisionMount Tilting Mount For 30"- 56" Displays - Black (Electronics)

I relied heavily on other reviews to make this purchase, so I feel it is necessary that I leave my own. This is a great mount at an excellent price. The product specs on the website say it will fit 30-56 in flat panels. When the product arrived, the box says 30-50 in, so I got worried because I bought it for a 52 in Samsung. After reading other reviews, I decided to try it before sending it back. The mount fit our tv perfectly, and there was plenty of room. I also didn't realize it had a tilt feature, which I didn't think I wanted. It actually came in handy once we had the tv on the wall and were trying to secure it. Another reviewer mentioned having to attach all the connections to the tv before mounting, but with the tilt feature, this is unnecessary. The instructions were easy to follow, and installation was a breeze. I HIGHLY recommend this mount and buying on Amazon!

This review is from: Sanus VMPL50B VisionMount Tilting Mount For 30"- 56" Displays - Black (Electronics)

I have a recessed cavity for my flat panel LCD with no access to the rear of the Television, so I was concerned about the accessability of any latch that would secure the Television brackets to the wall plate. This unit includes "optional" (in my opinion) safety bolt that will secure the brackets to the wall plate, gravity holds the brackets onto the wall plate. So to gain access is as simple as tilting the base of the TV out and lifting the TV off the wall plate (truly a two person job). The construction of the unit is robust stamped (12 gauge approx.) steel, with a high quality finish (satin powder coat). The wall bracket is 29" inside the side stops, and the maximum span of the bracket mounting holes when mounted on the wall plate is 26 1/2". The tilt operates nicely on plastic glides. Sanus even thought of including concrete wall anchors with the extensive hardware packet! No worries with this wall mount, it is the same one that you would pay 2X the price at...!

I purchased this wall mount for my 46 inch samsung lcd hdtv. The instructions were easy to follow and the installation was quick and simple. The mount came with 3 different sizes of screws to connect to the back of the tv but unfortunately none of them were quick the right length for my tv. I ended up having to go to to a hardware store to buy bolts that were the right length. A minor inconvenience but one you have to keep in mind.

A word of advice, you need to make sure and have all your connections hooked into the tv before you put it up on the wall mount. Since the mount leaves the tv very close to the wall it is very hard to connect anything once it is up. It is very simple to lift the tv off the mount but it takes 2 people so be warned. Great piece of hardware and I highly recommend it.
