Shit id have that thing mounted and tested by now

Didn't do as advertised id be all over Amazon and the company


I do have my doubts about how stable the TV will be. And there are numerous great reviews about this stand on Amazon. and theres several similar TV stands on amazon and almost all of them have great reviews as well. But i am sure that not many of them used a 65 inch TV for their stand. Although i did read a few that mentioned their TV size as 65 inch, and at least one person said they mounted a 70 inch lol....

I did do a very inaccurate test, by putting one foot on the front corner of the base of the stand, and then used both hands to pull the top of the mount forward towards me. The TV stand does not really take much force to make it tip... yea i had to pull a bit hard, but still, it wasnt as difficult to tip it by hand as i would hope.....

When i do mount the tv onto the mobile stand i will make sure to mount it at the lowest position possible to prevent it from tipping. I will not let go completely with my buddy who will help me mount it, just to check that it is stable. then i will slowly raise the TV to the highest position and see how stable it is there. I am pretty sure that the higher the TV goes, the more risky it is and greater chance of tipping. The TV only weights 52 lbs and is 65 inches. The max weight the stand can carry is 110 lbs. and the max size TV it can hold is 65 inch.

It is hard to tell from the image, but like half of the plastic spacer is actually inside the TV. Like i said before, i think the spacers are longer than needed, but they are the spacers that came with the TV from samsung for this specific TV. I am worried that the extra inch of the spacer is going to cause the TV to be more likely to tip forward?....
Do you guys think I should use a hacksaw and cut off like 5 to 10 millimeters of the plastic adapter and use a smaller screw size to shorten the distance that the bracket extends from the TV? The inside of the TV allows more of the plastic spacer to enter the TV on the bottom holes. So the top part of the bracket is further out than the bottom by about 2 to 5 millimeters. This plastic spacer came with the TV! so its weird that its so long. i think its meant to be used with a TV mount sold by Samsung, separately

No one is going to read that.

Why can't you install the TV like the instructions tell you to
