Mounting a 58" Plasma on a 30"-55" Universal Full Motion Wall Mount

Question

I like the looks and durability of the Costco Simplicity wall mount model # SLF1-B1. The specs say for a 30"-55" with a weight less than 150 pounds. I would like to mount a Samsung PN58A550 plasma tv. It is 58" and weighs 138 pounds.

Would there be a problem using the SLF1-B1 mount?

Answer 1

I would look at the dimensions of the mounting s***w holes on the back of the plasma and then see how wide the wall mount s***w holes are on the mounting bracket.  If they can fit, your good to go, if not you will need to buy a bigger wall mount.

When mounting a plasma you need to keep an out on weight and make sure the attachment s***w holes lines up, and of course make sure you place the mount directly on studs.
