This is my 4th Sanus mount, and I have complete confidence this will securely hold my TV. This one, as all previous, came with easy instructions and templates, and a webapp to help place the mount exactly where you want it. I love how these models allow to you install off center, plus slid the TV anywhere along the mount, to accommodate perfect placement regardless of stud location. Got it up quickly with no issues or user error.One of my previous mounts was the "Advanced Tilt" but not the "Advanced Tile 4D". You can still find the older one for about $40-70 less depending on sales. I almost got that one because it technically is still "4D" even though that term is only used with the newest version; both can be tilted side to side as they pull out from the wall and can be pulled unevenly to tile. However, this newest version comes out an inch further, thus can tilt a bit more. I didn't think that would be necessary, but I ended up being glad I got the newer one. With a 55" TV, you won't get much tilt even with the 4D model, so I think the extra inch helps and is probably worth the price premium in the end.I actually thought I'd get more tilt, so if you have a 55" or larger TV and are looking for a more significant range of viewing angles, look to a full motion mount. But in my case, I installed in our bedroom to the left of the dresser, which was centered on the bed. It gives the perfect amount of tilt to provide the perfect viewing angle from the bed, but not much more. As long as you know how much tilt you need, this mount does the job very well and I have complete confidence it will securely hold my TV.Read more
