The face of the TV is tilted upwards and I can't adjust it to be parallel to the wall and stay that way - any suggestions? ( It looks like /-| and I want it to stay like |-| )

I had no problem but believe you might if you didn't follow instructions or puzzle out the best mounting holes to use in advance.

the knob on the rear plate mount on the tv back is the adjustment loosen to allow the tilt function to work best to do with a person on each corner of the set

A forward tillt shouldn't be that noticeable. If it is, have you tried repositioning considering the tv literally hangs on the brackets and is not "screwed" in? Hope that helps!

Make sure that the brackets which attach to the TV have the adjustment screws on the bottom. Also, do not over-tighten the adjustment screws. Hope this helps!

Mine is slightly tilted as well, but not to the point of annoyance. I had the TV professionally installed, so I did not try and adjust, so I don't have any specific help. It almost appears to be sagging to some extent. It is an inexpensive mount compared to others I have seen and I suspect that the price reflects the lack of robust design and material used for this mount. That said, it has not failed and I am still using it.

I had the same issue after setting my 52 inch TV on the horizontal bar. The way I got the TV level was to slide it right and left along the horizontal bar. As far asI could see there are no adjustments to be made other than trying this.

Your TV when mounted can be tilted from the down (viewing position) to up out of the way position. Looking at the picture of the assembly, you will see the longer part of the mounting plate (top), this is the direction the tv will tilt in. The x shaped tv mount rotates and adjust up and down this allows for viewing in all directions. Hope this helps.

David...the bracket just screws down to your mounting surface with 3 screws or bolts. Then squeeze the 2 cogged mounting buttons on the bracket together and slip the display head over the buttons. You can then adjust the tilt in the display head by sqeezing the buttons again at the same time and rotate the display head where you want it. Hope this helps.

Rhonda, I have the same problem with the Sony 46Z4100 I unpacked yesterday. I have a call into the store I bought it from and am waiting for a response. There is no way to adjust the tilt of the stand that I can see without taking the stand apart. It may have to be replaced. Harvey

The TV slides back and forth on the mount. It doesnt have to be centered on the wall mount. Mount it in studs and then slide it to center it. The four lag bolts can more than handle the unbalanced load.

It's stationary and ours was not level, we didnt want to break the welds, so we ended up having to tilt the stand (~4" from the wall on one side and ~6" from the wall on the other)theres a way to give a slight adjustment by making the screws that hold the TV mount to the stand tighter or looser - but you can only go so loose/tight so it may give you like an inch of swivel.

The tilt can be adjusted after mounting and you do not need tools. I suppose the screws could theoretically be so tight as to preclude tilting, but I haven't had any trouble out of it. The tilt works by allowing the tv to pivot on a bolt in the back. It will be very obvious once you see it. It basically pivots the brackets screwed to the tv in their relation to the hook that goes on the mount.

I read somewhere that if you are standing up, the top of the TV needs to be at eye level and if you are sitting down, the bottom frame of the TV needs to be at eye level. That said, I have options on my mount to swivel & tilt it a bit for minor adjustment. I have had it mounted this way for a couple months now without any neck aches. :)

Dear James, The height of the TV mount is not adjustable on this item. Thank you, Value Max

the tilt adjustment is behind the bracket that mounts to the TV. It is not much tilt but it works fine for me

Worked for me. I had the same issue. I was able to slide the mount to the side to catch both the center and one off to the side a bit, the arms allowed me to move the TV back to the center of the wall when pushed all the way in and still cover the mount in the back...in other words, I had a stud in the middle, but was able to screw the left side of the mount into that, then slide it over an mount the right side to another stud, but sill position the TV in the center of my space.

It's not clear to me which part of the TV you want tilted forward--the top or bottom edge? If it's the top, then don't extend that metal extension on the bottom bracket...you will have about a 10-15% angle but may need to get an HDMI plug for the back of the TV that you can rotate/angle so it doesn't push the bottom part of the tv out.

Yes. We used a low-profile mount, and it looks pretty sexy on our wall. BUT, we put it pretty high, and that was apparently a bad idea. If you want to watch 3D, you need to be eye level with the TV. Since ours is above eye level, we simply can't watch anything in 3D unless we stand up or maybe if we sit on a bar stool. We'll be buying a tilt wall mount soon and setting that one up instead so we can enjoy the 3D, which looks awesome when we can see it.

Just something to think about. You can buy a ultra thin tilting wall mount, drill two extra holes to fit it to this stand, and now you have a tilting stand. This is what I did. If you're a little handy it can be done in about an hour. I'll try to post some pictures in a review I'm planning to write. The front feet stand out far enough that there is no danger of this falling forward.

make sure the tv with the bracket is in it's correct side. it should mount on top of the bracket on the wall. you can test it out with out the tv,it might be upside down. try and mount the brackets without the tv to make sure it's correct in holding it. then install the bracket to the tv and mount it on the bracket on the wall. also make sure the bracket on the wall is the correct side up.. :)

There is a bolt in the back which I believe if you loosen will let you tilt it back. It does allow one to easily move the tv from side to side and slightly forward without loosening it.
