MantelMount MM750 Pro Series Pull Down & Swivel TV Mount

We bought the TV mount last month for our 74inch Sony TV for above the fireplace mounting. It works perfectly for our viewing and helps cleanly stow the TV back to the wall. We are still in the process of getting the back wall painted, but I highly recommend this mount. We can finally use out fireplace.

We purchased the 700 for our first TV install (Samsung 75”) in the living room and we loved. Then we decided to buy the same TV for the game day room and went with the M750 mount. The 750 is next level. For the exact same TV, we noticed there’s absolutely no after movement wiggle. When you pull the TV down, it sticks, when you tilt or swivel, same. One word of caution though, it is much heavier and I would recommend getting a buddy to help you install it, especially when hoisting it up above the mantel. But make no mistake, it’s totally worth it. My electrician even brought one of his electrician buddies over to show him. The product is well worth every penny.

This mount allowed us to reclaim a large amount of real estate in our living room that had previously been occupied by a TV stand. I was always hesitant to mount the TV over the mantel due to the neck strain, but this mount has solved that problem.

I had initially planned to attempt a recessed mount, but after running a stud finder over the wall determined that there was some type of horizontal bracing/header that would have been in the way so ultimately decided to surface mount for simplicity. It still looks great with the surface mount. I did order the SK50 surface install kit to make it look a little more finished, but honestly I did not think it looked that bad without the trim pieces so if you surface mount you might consider seeing how it looks before you decide whether you need the SK50. The SK50 trim pieces are super easy to install and can be added after everything else is in place.

The most challenging part of the mounting process is that the MM750 mechanism is pretty heavy (about 70 pounds), so you need some help to get it up on the wall. The included template is very helpful in getting the positioning right. I probably spent 2 hours with a tape measure, level, and stud finder just making sure that all the markings were in the right place before I started drilling holes. One trick that I found useful for the surface mount was to mount the bottom cross bar on the wall first, which gave us something to rest the main heavy portion of the mount on as we attached the upper portion. After mounting the lower cross bar, my wife and I lifted the mount onto a tall step stool and rested it there while climbing a few steps up the ladder and then lifting it the rest of the way up to the wall.

For our mantel, with a depth of 9.5 inches, I think we could have actually surface mounted the box a couple of inches lower than what was specified in the instructions. I would say that no part of the mechanism ever gets closer than 5 inches from the edge of the mantel when in operation - so there is more than enough clearance in our particular situation. Had we done the recessed mount we probably would have needed that extra clearance, but with the surface mount the TV starts out a few inches further from the wall. Regardless, we have been very pleased with the results.

Works great with our new 77” and Sonos sound bar.

Cant believe how nice this mount is and the impact it made in my living room. Was well worth the $. Very sturdy and high quality materials

Love the MantleMount. My brother told me about MantelMount and encouraged me to get it for our new deck/porch. It turned out amazing! One of the best touches to our project. Everybody that sees it, says “I need one of those!”

Look the product!!

Strong built

Great product - installs and functions as advertised. If your TV is heavy (over 100 lbs or so), the lower extension and handle will be a little wobbly when it comes time to lift the TV, so be careful. Also be aware that the resistance rate provided by the gas springs is not linear - so be very careful to control your TV as it nears the top of its travel. Mine has the tendency to slam closed at the top, in spite of having the gas springs adjusted per the manual.

It is easy to operate and install. Please with the product

Exactly what I was looking for. I’d love to have the motor but the manual option works just fine.

We recently installed a new TV over our fireplace using the Mantlemount MM750 pull down unit. The MM750 installation was straightforward and we are extremely happy with the result. Being able to put the TV out of the way when not in use, and then to be able to easily lower the TV for viewing opened up our family room layout options. Having the TV more at eye level when watching our shows is a game changer for us.

The mount is thicker and bigger than it probably needs to be for a modern OLED TV. It is extremely sturdy and perfect as far as the mechanical portion of the mount but the portion that mounts to the TV is thin metal that makes the whole TV wobble. While I am not concerned that the TV will ever fall it is not as secure as I would have hoped with the best mount available. It is still definitely the best option out there for a TV above a fireplace!

When closed, its tight against wall and out of the way, but to view from our sectional couch we have ability to view in a eye level position Best purchase I made in a while.Family members liked it so much at thanksgiving , just got done installing a mm700 over the fireplace for my sister and brother in-law.

Beautiful looking mount. Get a pro installer!

You wont regret it!

Our builder was very impressed with the high quality equipment. The fireplace wall was all new construction which required special attention to mantel depth, interior temperatures, height and depth of recessed box to house the MantelMount and tv. The instructions were precise, equal to the complexity of all the parts involved.

Love the look and function of this product.

Good mount once installed.

MM750 Pro Pull Down

I love it

I purchased for new house construction that isn't complete yet so I actually haven't gotten to use your product just yet. Give me about another 2 months and ask again. I'm sure I will have an opinion. I purchased the product because of what looks like great flexibilty in setting the height of the TV.

This TV mount answered all our needs. The ability to bring our TV to eye level while viewing on our couch reducing neck strain is awesome. To then place tv back above mantle when not watching double plus awesome. Five stars is not adequate.

This is a very sturdy and well engineered product. It works wonderfully. As advertised. Was fun to install. Takes time and a focus on quality, but the Mantle Mount works great.

It needs professional installation and a contractor to frame the opening, but it performs exactly as advertised.

Very well made, with good installation manual. However, very heavy and if used with a bigger/heavier TV it might be very tricky to install. My TV 65" weights only 60 Lbs but if the mount can take 120 Lbs TVs plus It's own weight, It's absolutely necessary to make sure that the framing is well structured and has absolutely 0 weak spots. I had to enforce mine with bunch of metal brackets and rearrange a little to ensure sturdiness of the supporting elements. I guess there is no way to make it this solid and lighter but some additional instruction/parts helping to deal with different framing scenarios would be very useful, probably in many cases. That's one of two reasons I decided to take one star out. The second reason is the price, I think $900 is a little steep but that's obviously subjective and doesn't apply to everyone. If not that, this is very much a 5 star product.

We installed the MM750 as part of a family room renovation. It was the only way to make our room work, as the TV would otherwise have been much too high above the fireplace for comfortable viewing. The MM750 is frankly perfect. When closed (in the up position) it hides into the wall. It glides down beautifully, smoothly and securely. My wife was adamant that she wanted to preserve our mantel for the many seasonal decorations she puts there throughout the year, and indeed the MM750 solves that problem.

We mounted a 60” Samsung flatscreen, which was the largest our room setup could use. It is paired with a Bose Lifestyle 650. The Bose system has a small center channel sound bar, so we had to modify the bottom of the MM750 bracket to make it work perfectly. Also, we had to run two professional grade HDMI in-wall cables, one optical cable, and five high-grade speaker wire pairs. That forced us to spend considerable effort carefully dressing the wires behind the TV into the MM750 to guarantee that they wouldn’t ever move or wear out during repeated raising/lowering of the mount. It took a long time, but the results are outstanding. If I could give a recommendation to Mantel Mount, it would be to find ways to simplify wire dressing and make pre-installed pathways for the many cables that could be run to the TV.

The MM750 is a high quality, truly professional grade product, and it will be a great asset for any home. You will not be disappointed.

Installation completed on new construction. Will be ordering the new 860 for Great room

Nice product. A little difficult to adjust the weight for the piston.

Quite sturdy and well built. A bit hard to bring TV down from the UP position even after adjusting the pistons.

While the quality was exactly what we were expecting we were unable to use the product as the location we wanted to use was simply not going to work. The company was prompt to accept our return & refund the money back to out acct ~ no questions asked. One thing though for anyone else ~ it must be returned in the original box which fortunately we had never fully unpacked. Just keep that in mind.

Works great!

My wife built a new house and the only place for a TV in the living area was going to be above the fireplace. To that end, we struggled with putting in a fireplace that would be short enough that would allow for an above the fireplace TV that wouldn't cause neck strain. This is virtually impossible. Once we discovered MantleMount, we didn't have to worry about going small with the fireplace. My wife loves the outcome. Thank you for solving our problem.

Heavy duty unit, which functions exactly as described. It is a hefty unit, which handles our 65 inch Samsung effortlessly. Very pleased with the purchase, as was our audio guy, who will start using these in the future. Well made with heavy duty hardware.

Spend 1k for the mount, but 500 for install! Overall very good quality and good for mounting above stove.
