Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Premier Mounts AM2-B Articulating Wall Mount for 10" to 40" LCD Displays (Black)
Customer Review: Pretty Pleased
Summary: 4 Stars
First: I am a pretty good handy person who has experiencing installing items like this in the house. I have installed tilting and arm type supports on four occasions prior. This was my fifth.
My Installation: Install a 26" LCD above a door frame in a bathroom. Pretty straight forward.
Pro's: I had it installed in about 20 minutes total. It was quite easy, and seemed very stable. The leveling is quite easy as you have only one alignment (vertical) to consider. The swing cjharacteristics on side to side and in or out are quite impressive. I can go nearly 90deg to each side when fully extended out.
Cons: you better have a stud where you want the center of your TV or you will have to build a "support" between studs. (No big issue for those who know what to do). Bigger issue is that the stud bolts are Phillips Head Screws.. So you better pre-drill your holes, and better have a power screw driver. No way can you sink these monsters by hand and no pre-drill with out rounding off the head. These would have been better as hex-heads. The down ward tint is a bit less than I thought, but I have a high mount. If middle of wall mount, this is no big issue. The cable management system is adequate.
I would recommend this and use this mount again.
Customer Review: Holds my 26 inch HDTV/Monitor perfectly
Summary: 5 Stars
My 26 inch Samsung T260HD TV/Monitor weighs 21 pounds (i.e. with VESA bracket WMB2400T); and this wall mount holds them perfectly. The wall mount moves the TV/Monitor 17 inches in and out from the wall flawlessly. The wall mount is very sturdy. The arm tension, rotation, and tilt settings are completely adjustable. TIP: Before you can adjust the arm tension, you will need to remove the plastic end caps; which should be easy, but I had to use pliers. They need to fix that inconvenience. The built in cable management lets you route your power, HDMI, and coax cables right through the arm; very smart, neat, and tidy. My only problem with the cable management was there was no way to fit a DVI connector through there. They should have made the openings bigger for the DVI connectors. Looks like I may attempt to enlarge the openings myself. I'm not looking forward to that. Saw this EXACT wall mount being used in my local Jack In The Box. So this kinda confirmed this was a good mount. I would definitely buy this again.
Just wish:
1) the plastic caps covering the adjustment nuts were easier to get off
2) the cable management openings were large enough to fit a DVI connector
Customer Review: Not a Great Product
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this swing-arm LCD TV mount from another on-line vendor, and it arrived scratched and missing hardware. Numerous phone calls to the vendor and manufacturer resulted in offers to replace the unit, but only after I returned the one I received. This is, as I'm sure most of you are aware, unlike Amazon, which has sent out replacements before receiving the returned merchandise.
I noted that the packing material used to protect the painted surfaces did not surround the arms and mounting base, so in transit, they are able to bump against each other and that could be the source of the scratches.
Harware missing was 2 metric screws, which are not easy to find in a local hardware store. Someone had opened the sealed plastic envelope, removed the screws and resealed the envelope with transparent tape.
All-in-all, this wasn't a pleasant experience and neither the retailer or the manufacturer took any responsibility for the problem, meaning someone else might get a similarly defective unit.
Buyer beware!
Customer Review: Good, sturdy mount.
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this arm to hold a 32" Samsung LCD TV in the bedroom and it works great and was fairly easy to install. Getting the mount onto the wall was pretty easy, but driving those massive screws into a stud took a lot of torque! The hard part came after letting my arm rest and attaching the adapter plate to the back of the TV when it was time to attach the TV to the arm. This part definitely takes two patient people, but standing on a chair made it easier so that I could hold the TV and look down and help line up the holes on the mounting bracket for the other person. The shocking part was that 4 tiny 5mm screws are all that is needed to hold my expensive TV to the arm, but whatever works... The arm is easy enough to articulate and is very sturdy. My only gripe with the product is that it did not come with a 200mm X 200mm mounting bracket so I had to order one separately so it would work with my Samsung. It only included a 100mm X 200mm bracket for some reason, so I deduct one star for that omission.Customer Review: Great mount!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this mount for Samsung LN-T2353H, which requires 200x100 mounting plate. First I was greatly discouraged after I realized that major retail stores recommended incompatible mounts and asked at least double price for those products. It took time to realize that Amazon has the best offer I could find, but I am glad I did!
This mount is similar to AM2, except this one (AM2-B) is black, which perfectly fits black TV's. Long arm allows 360° rotation.
Easy to install, but you might need to play a little with provided hardware. 1) I used larger (then recommended by manufacturer) drill bit to make holes in wall studs and 2) replaced "plate-to-TV" screws with a little longer ones. That's all. Everything else works just great.
I would recommend this arm to anyone, who is looking for black mount for LCD TV up to 27" and wants good performance quality as well
