Rocketfish™ - Tilting TV Wall Mount for Most 19" to 39" TVs - Black

I bought this mount to put in my fifth wheel trailer. Maybe it is not its intended use but the store clerk thought it would be the best fit. It was very easy to mount to the wall in the designated place but once mounted the TV although very light, felt flimsy. Since driving down the road with an RV creates a simulated earth quack inside the RV I did not have a lot of confidence in this mounts ability to hold the TV stable through all the bumps and potholes etc you run into while driving. So I now have to remember and take the TV down every time we travel. That was not what I was hoping for. When the TV is on the wall it is really lose and has a lot of play in the movement. That being said. It does work once parked and the TV is placed in the holder. I wouldn't dare drive down the road with it in the holder because there is just way to much movement in it.

The product is heavy and good quality. The instructions were fairly clear. Husband is pretty good at installing things and a perfectionist. He used a level and followed instructions. The bracket that attached to the back of the tv has to “hook” on to the part on the wall. First this is not a one man job. The two of us had to lift the HEAVY tv with bracket and perfectly snap into place. It was still just slightly crooked and I’m afraid to fool with it much for fear of falling. You must find a stud to put it into. We have a stud finder. I’m just nervous. It looks great on the wall. Does what it is suppose to. Price wasn’t bad. We bought this over flat mount because we couldn’t remember if the cables went in the side or back of the tv. Rookies at this.

Needing a wall mount in a pinch (for work), I found multiple mounts on the Best Buy app and traveled to another town (about 8 miles away) to get it (along with multiple tolls on the highway). Upon arrival they did not have the $20 mount I found online and this was the least expensive mount that would work. Unfortunately it was triple the cost but it was necessary to complete the job. Not the 1st time I found it online, but they didn't actually have it in the store. Mount itself is fine, sturdy and was easy to mount up. I have no issues other than the price point. Not competitive at all.

This was a last minute grab to hang a Samsung 32" TV. The first thing that I noticed was it needed to be centered on the wall stud. Where I mounted it that was not possible so a board was placed over 2 studs so I could mount the bracket. Following the first release test the spring fell out of the mount; fortunately I could repair that. It fell out numerous times. One other release time the entire release mechanism came off the bracket. My point is you get what you pay for and this is a cheap bracket that is barely worth the money.

Bought this for our other Samsung tv and it worked just fine.. got a smaller Samsung tv and none.. I mean none of the screws fit into the back of the tv.. they were either too short, too fat, not long enough.. we have it hanging but it’s very loose and I was very frustrated.. it’s supposed to be universal.. I mean, it comes with tons of different size screws but none of them worked with my tv and the guy at Best Buy picked this tv mount out for us..

The wall mount fit the predrilled holes in the 39 inch (diagonal) TV perfectly. It was easy to mount; it does require drilling one set of screws into a stud for secure mounting. So use a stud locator. Tools needed include stud finder, socket wrench, drill, straightedge and/or bubble level. This limits placement a bit, but not a significant down side. The TV is easy to mount on the wall, and dismount if needed. The tilt angle is limited to up and down, but the up-down angle is adequate.

The mount isn't very sturdy. The television wobbles with the slightest pressure applied. The piece that attaches to the wall is about 3 inches wide by 5 inches tall when mounted. The piece that attaches to the tv is much larger. To remove the tv from the wall there is a wire which is attached to a spring loaded clasp. The first time I tried to remove the tv from the wall the wire and clasp fell apart.

This bracket is the same high quality as the other rocketfish mounts and beyond simple to install. Two lag screws for the wall mount and one allen screw to attach the bracket. The steel is solid and not flexible- no way the TV is falling if this is installed properly. *Tip- check to spacing of your TV against the wall before you attach the bracket; it's a time saver instead of trying to mount it and discovering you have no clearance.
