Allcam L293XS Universal Swivel Arm TV Wall Bracket for 19-32 inch LCD/LED TV w/Free 360° Pan Tilt 12° Max Mount Size 200x200mm Holds up to 30KG Weight

Right off the bat, I'm gonna say that I'd give this wall bracket ten stars if I could. Grand praise, I know, but stick with me and I'll tell you why.Last Thursday, at about a quarter past six in the morning, my partner were suddenly awoken by a cacophonous crashing sound as our 32" JVC TV/DVD combi, bracket, iPod speaker and all fell from our bedroom wall and landed on the glass and ceramic lamp beneath them, nearly causing us both to jump out of our skin. Rather miraculously, the TV remained working after it's less than graceful dismount from the wall, but suffered a few small but deep scratches to the screen, a couple of which were bleeding light; meaning that it was now irreparably damaged.As much as I hate to admit it, much of the blame on the bracket parting ways with the wall was due to the fact that when I put it up three or four years ago, I hadn't been introduced to shield anchor bolts and as a result it was put up with a combination of rawl plugs and contact adhesive. It did however appear to be pretty solid on the wall and remained that way until it finally and unexpectedly gave way.Another result of the TV crashing from the wall was that the old bracket, which I always viewed with a little suspicion as it always felt a little wobbly, was bent and knackered - so I jumped onto Amazon to see if I could find a sturdier one and to my delight found this one, which looked far more substantial.>>>WHAT'S IN THE BOX?When the box arrived the next day (thanks to Amazon Prime) I was impressed by the heft of it. Opening up, I discovered the TV mounting plate, the wall bracket itself, a bunch of screws, washers, allen keys and a set of instructions.>>>WHAT'S THE BRACKET LIKE?Compared to the old bracket, this one is a total beast! It's seriously chunky and substantial, comes with plastic covering plates to hide the bolts connecting it to the wall and it all feels very well designed indeed.>>>PUTTING IT UP ON THE WALLSince completely renovating my kitchen in the last three years, learning to plaster and how to properly put things up on brick walls, I felt far more confident putting this TV bracket up than I did when I put the old one up (which was, as I recall, I very frustrating process), so I quickly decided that there was a snowball's chance in hell that was going to rely on the included rawl plugs and screws that came in the box for the bracket. Nope - I headed straight to B&Q and bought four 60mm M6 shield anchor expanding bolts and a 12mm HSS drill bit. This sucker was NOT going to fall of the wall!This morning, I did the sensible thing by marking off the location for the four holes and drilled some pilot holes with my cordless 12v drill. To my delight, drilling into each of the pilot holes resulted in the squeaking/scratching noise of the drill bits hitting brick, so I discarded the cordless drill and plugged in my beastly SDS hammer drill. If you've ever used one of these, you'll have experienced the simultaneous joy and horror at how easily they chew through brick walls; it literally took less than five minutes for me to drill the four holes deep enough for the shield anchor bolts to nicely slide into them.Getting the bracket up onto the wall was a simple case of hand tightening the bolts in the four corner mounting holes of the bracket, lifting it up and sliding them into the holes I drilled, then using a spanner to turn the screws until the bolts expanded and held tight. By the time I'd finished tightening each of the four bolts I tested it by literally doing a pull-up on the bracket. Yep, there was no way that this was going to fall off the wall! >>>GETTING THE TV UPNext, I attached the mounting plate to the back of the TV. Much like the bracket itself, the plate is really well engineered and features a tooth-and-hole system to hold the TV up and holds it in place using an allen key bolt on each side, which is also used to adjust its vertical angle. I got a little assistance from my better half and got her to hold the TV in-place while I tightened the allen key bolts.>>>WONDERFULLY ADJUSTABLEOnce the TV was attached to the bracket, I couldn't help but be incredibly impressed by how stable it was. Unlike when it was on the old bracket, the TV doesn't wobble at all when attached to this one and the range of movement offered by this one is incredible. You can obviously swing it left and right and in and out, but you can also adjust the horizontal angle, meaning that you could mount a TV on a wonky wall with this bracket and compensate for it. There's only a tiny amount of vertical adjustment however, so I doubt that you could mount up somewhere high.>>>SUMMING UPAs you might have guessed, I'm incredibly impressed by this TV bracket. It's seriously well engineered, sturdy and steady. Quite how they are managing to sell such a quality bracket for under £15 is beyond me, but I'm certainly not about to complain! If you're looking for a wall bracket for a 32" or smaller TV, you should look no further than this one. It's absolutely perfect.

Product snapped and dropped the tv on the floor cracking the screen. The installation was followed precisely and the wall plugs were tight fitting, with the correct number of screws used. The tv was below the 20kg weight limit. There is a £1000 guarantee if the tv drops, they won’t honour this as they are just using it as a marketing ploy. Picture evidence was given. Communication is abysmal. They’re trying to blame it on installation when the arm snapped. Buy a better quality bracket.

Spent an hour trying to surf the net and found that Samsung UE32M5520 32-Inch at this link does not have proper wall mounting instructions in the instruction manual. ; https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-UE32M5520-32-Inch-Full-Smart/dp/B075H3WNWB/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1551898603&sr=8-3&keywords=32inch+samsung+smart+tvHowever, this review on internet came to rescue and was very helpful; "I ended up cutting M4 75mm screws to 43mm. (All 4 screws). Did the job fine as I got nowhere with Samsung. I used a hacksaw and smoothed out the last mm with a little bench grinder. I'd say a small file would be just as good. Have you used the little black plastic spacers? This might be why the 43 seem very long? Just be careful not to overtighten!!!!"After testing and trialing I have come to the conclusion ; The screws required to mount Samsung 32" TV on to any bracket have to be M4 x 43mm thread length ; ie Spacer 35mm Indent before threaded bit 2.4mm. Thread engagement 2.25 to 4.5mm. Bracket thickness 1.8mm . Adds up to 41.45mm to 43.7mm.So it looks as if the best thing is to get some M4 x 50mm or 45mm and cut them down to about 42.6mm or 43mm. They can be bought for £1.20 on Amazon ;HANDLE SCREWS M4 Fixings for Kitchen Bedroom Handles choose length and quantity (10, 45mm). Have to grind 2mm off......; https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00HNTZ650/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Very important; one must use the black mounting plastic spacers supplied with the TV.

This arrived within 2 days, was easy to assemble and attach. (I used 2 screws to attach to a wooden stud through the plasterboard). It seems quite stout, the swing arm moves easily, folding in/out readily and it attached to our older 26" TV with the 100mm x 100mm holes pre drilled in the plate provided. I used nothing of my own as all screws, washers were provided. All at a very good price. Excellent, would recommend to anyone with a flat TV of the 19-32" size. (only 4 for durability as I really have no idea how long it will last, but it seems well made and I don't expect to replace it.)

Better for a larger tv , fitted to a 32 inch. Check dimensions first and measure holes in TV.Didn't come with correct 4mm treaded screws at right length, no 4mm screws at all. Had to find some from elsewhere. Fitted no problems and fairly basic instructions is all that's needed.Use a decent drill and fixings.

Excellent bracket, does exactly what its designed to do. Allows the TV to sit back against the wall when not in use. Very sturdy, very tidy and very easy to move around if you need to re-angle the view. I really can't fault the bracket. It comes with all nuts, bolts, screws etc.. etc... I would highly recommend this to anyone who needs a bracket that allows the TV to be very easily moved from one position to another.

I’m a 67 year old female used to ‘having a go’ so getting it onto the wall wasn’t a problem. Found it productive to simulate how it would work to ensure it met my needs instead of going straight in. Well pleased with the result.

All good fitted it to a plaster board wall with a 32” screen. Need special fittings for plaster board but it all works well
