Samsung WMN450 Mini Wall Mount

I was initially quite skeptical on how these mounts would attach to the wall, how secure the attachment would be and how easily the TV could be attached to the mounting system. I'm well schooled in the adage of measuring multiple times before cutting or drilling anything! Adhering to this rule is especially CRITICAL for this task. The precision and accuracy of your measurements is mandatory for success. A 30 inch carpenter's level is a must. A laser level is preferred. A good quality stud finder is a necessity as well because it's preferential to attach the mounts to studs. If centering your TV is your preference/requirement and your chosen position doesn't coincide with studs you need to be comfortable selecting and placing wall anchors. Once the system is successfully mounted to your wall and the attachments are secured to your TV take a moment to inspect how the anchor on the TV and the wall system interconnect. A plate on the wall anchor must be depressed inward by the anchor on the TV and then the TV anchor slips down into a groove on the wall system. Connect any cabling/power cords now if you can. Placing the TV on the wall system is/should be a 2 person job! Ideally, you want to be above the TV with a view of both the wall bracket and the TV anchor. Guide the TV anchor into the wall bracket by depressing the plate on the wall bracket. DON'T LET GO OF THE TV YET!!! Allow the weight of TV to guide the anchor on the TV down to the bottom of the wall bracket slot. Again, a few moments spent reviewing how the TV anchors and the wall system interconnect is invaluable. Reminder; this is a flush/flat finish mounting system. Your TV will be suspended like a picture. There's NO articulation possible from side to side, up or down or in and out. The TV can pivot out from the bottom on the wall brackets but only to attach any cabling or cords you didn't attach before hanging. Finally, an in-the-wall tube system to hide the cables and cords is the perfect finish for this project.

I purchased this wall mount for a new Samsung UHD 4k Curved 65" TV. The kit works great. The instructions are decent, but not real good. The things I like about it is that it is very neat, no big metal framing stuff all over the wall. This tv went on a curved wall at a business, and we had to "shim" up the inside edges of the bracket to make it flush to hand the tv on the wall. The mount is not good if you want to pull it out as it does not articulate. It is also hard to get the inputs in once hung, as it does not pull out from the wall very much. For what we needed, it is a very good mount.

Not the original wall mount that came from Samsung for this tv. The original hangs flatter more like a picture hanger. This one still worked ok, just not as flat.

Have always bought Samsung genuine TV mounts as find them exactly right for the job, and these again are really good mounts.They feel super sturdy once screwed into the wall and are minimal in design, easy to use and give a sense of trust in their capability to hold up the biggest of Samsung TV's.For my specific TV UN48H6400 the mounts make the TV protrude a 1/4" further off the wall than I would ideally have liked, hence the drop in the star. I think Samsung should have had one more depth option to account for this model - but the model was completely new for this season - so that could have been the reason.If I wanted it completely flush to the wall I could have chosen the Ultra Slim WMN1000A type mounting which I have used before but was not sure it would work given the new TV model and so opted for the mini mounts is this review.Overall super happy with the product and would trust this over third part mounts every time.One last thing I should mention - the auto-leveling capability of this product is brilliant.Means if you are a bit off on the level of your brackets then its does not matter as the TV can adjust up and down and side on each side once hung.

This is the first time that I write a review. This wall mount is awesome!!!!! Its also a great price on amazon. The directions are a little confusing but it's actually very easy to install. It's like hanging a picture. Very low profile and I love the kickstand on the bottom for hooking up wires. I definitely recommend this product to anyone with a Samsung TV as it keeps your TV very close to the wall without all the added bulk of a traditional mount. Amazing!!!

Samsung linked their TVs to this wall mount as being only thing compatiable. Its one of those things that is simple and works well when all requirement fall into place, however, if your wall studs (installed by your house builder) are not exactly on 16 inch centers you may miss the stud and end up with your expensive TV on the floor. To make sure I did not have that problem, I could not rely 100% on a stud finder. I ended up removing drywall to expose the studs to make sure there distance were per the Samsung instructions. Luckly they were, but if not I would have to sister a new section of studs next to the existing. The easiest solution is to buy a wall bount that does not have a specifically defined distance for screwing to the wall. Also what the instructions did not tell was how to unlock the wall mount free the TV to remove the TV. Hopefully, I want have to worry about that for some time. The instructions were terrible.
