 Great wall mount! |

| I purchased this Samsung ultra slim wall mount for my new Samsung UN55B8000 55" LED TV. I have to admit that I was a bit apprehensive about mounting a $3K TV using such minimal hardware, but the materials and construction of the mounting system is very high quality. The ultra slim wall mount takes full advantage of the TV's thin (1.2") design and only adds a half inch when installed. Therefore, the total depth from the wall is less than 2". Awesome! If you're going to wall mount the 6000, 7000, or 8000 series LED TVs, this is the way to go. |

| I just mounted my 40 inch LED TV, An have to say it was very simple and easy. Great mount, although it is a little pricey at the MSRP of $249. Bought it through Amazon at Beach Audio for $116 shipped. I used two in-wall cable access ports, that I found at Lowes electrical Dept. I put one behind TV and the other directly below it( in same stud cavity) by the receptacle. I passed the power and 1 HDMI cable through the one, then chased down wall, out the other. Very clean look. If you have more than 1 cable to run, use a AV receiver for your source switching. Just love the TV. Looking at the HT-BD8200 Blu-ray sound bar with wireless sub to complete the clean minimalist look. |
Not what I expected, but it works...well

ok, so the new tv is here and up. and its great. heres all the info i can give you.
first off, and i admit i should of paid more attention, see that picture they show you of the mount? that's the back of the tv. i'm sure it says this somewhere, but it got by me, shame on me. so here i was expecting this large box and when it arrived i had this small box and was intially upset b/c i thought i got the wrong thing. speaking of wrong thing, when you order the WMN1000BXZA, the box (the one i got at least) ended at B. it does indicate it's for the 860 though. i even verified at samsung. anyway, its all good.
so, i say to myself, WTF, why design this and not have it so you can secure it into 2 studs. once i see all the screws i think, oh it is just about 16 inches, maybe it will work. once i figure out the directions, pictures mostly, as there are 100 diff't languages they prepare for, i see that indeed, its as i thought, only one stud can be used. ok, this worries me. so, i do the proper measurements and what you have to do is this:
take your measurements from the tv (mine is the 50) and center it by measuring which stud you want to connect with. the directions call for you to set the 2 wall mounts 7-7.8 inches apart. so drill these in, screw in the 2 top (and bottom 2 for angling) to the tv, and there you have it. it is awesome how close it is. i have no trouble with wires (although its not exactly how it will end up) so that's nice.
giving as much info as i can, i bought it for 140, but have seen it for just under 110, doh!
worth it at 140, but still cheaper is better!
of course i wish it was 2 studs, but what they do is give you a good drywall mount to install. if you are familar, i call them toggle screws (may not be right term), you can use this for the drywall part. what it is:
you drill a 1/2 inch hole and insert the screw. the new thing for me though is this. all toggles i have worked with are the screw in variety. basically, you drill the hole, slide in the metal side, make sure the clasp flips over (to grab inside of drywall) and rather than screwing it in, you basically zip tie it in, odd but it works.
all in all, it works great. i am happy. you do need 2 for the job unless you have a large wingspan. weight not the issue, but why risk dropping on your toes!
i think that's all the details i got, i hope this helps all, i say give it a go, post back if you got questions! |
Very Slick.

This was relatively easy to install, just two holes to drill. The written instruction were worthless. I relied on the diagrams to get the job done. I recommend you get a digital stud finder to find and use at least one stud. I was concerned that the sound quality would be effected because the speakers are mounted on the back of the TV and there is less than 3/4 inch gap between the speakers and wall. The sound quality is still excellent regardless.
I though I was going to receive a huge package by the looks of the photographs, at lease a 4' x 4' box. The mounts shipped in a box 12" x 10". 4 large circular metal mounts and several bags of hardware.
I would recommend this Samsung Ultraslim mount. |

| The wall mount was great. I wish Samsung would design a "slicker" way to connect the power cord. The power cord connect was thicker then the wall mount so the TV is at a wierd angle from the wall. |
