User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Heavy Construction / Simple to install
Arrived quickly and performed as described. Heavy soild construction. Holds my large Mitz. HC-5500 with no problem. Would highly reccomend.
3 Stars Good build but pricy for the item.
I bought this “Vantage Point CGUPM12-B Universal Front Projector Mount – Black” for my Mitsubishi HC6500 Projector and the first impression is it a very small item as compared to the price. A simple Project mount could be delivered way cheaper than this. But the good thing is that it’s a good build. Easy to move all direction makes it very convenient for installation and adjustment of the projector to the Media room.
5 Stars Awesome product, very nice.
I bought this for my black Infocus x9 projector. Everything matched up perfectly, the quality is great. It is very adjustable and can be locked in any position. I’m considering ordering another for my other projector. Only problem is the price is a bit steep.
5 Stars Versatile and easy installation
Found the perfect position on the wall for this mount. We have an option of Ceiling or wall mount with this very heavy duty Projector mount. Easy 3 long screws and big enough diameter we have no doubt this will stay put. No vibration with this heavy metal mount. The picture does not show how strong this mount really is. I searched long and hard before finding the perfect mount. Would buy another if I ever needed one. It is the most versatile and comes with an optional length arm. Very thoroughly thought out product.
5 Stars Could not be more pleased…
For starters, in the interest of full discretion, this unit is my only experience with a projector mounting system. That being said, I would highly recommend this mount to anyone, veteran or novice, looking for a projector mount. On to the specifics. This mount is sturdy. I’m lucky enough to live in a loft apartment, with exposed beams (approx. 8″x12″). After installing the 3 long screws for the mounting plate, I gave it the ol’ “wiggle test”. It did not budge. Long story short (maybe a bit late for that) it passed the I’m hanging, all 205 lbs, from this projector mount test. This mount is very adaptable. It can be used as a wall or ceiling mount. The 12″ extension is easily left out of the configuration for close to ceiling mounts. All the hing points are secured with a main hinge bolt, and a locking bolt. I found that the locking bolt when tightened full down will hold the projector in what ever position it is in, but with a little nudging it can be moved ever so slightly to whatever orientation it needs to be in. Once the secondary locking screws are tightened down this thing does not move. It also comes with a number of screws and 2 sets of arms to attach most any projector I could imagine. On the remote chance you have a projector with mounting points that are a completely obscure thread size and count anyone comfortable with hardware could be in and out of Home Depot or Lowe’s in 10 min with the parts needed, less $2 tops. All in all excluding some hyper advanced pneumatic operated, robotic ninja, space monkey navigated, projector mount; I cant see someone really beating this unit in terms of strength, adaptability, and cost.
P.S. To the reviewer that complained that he or she was having to use the screws that hold the projector to the mount, to adjust it, please spend your free time making a friend with the smallest understanding of mechanical know-how, not confusing people with sub-par Amazon reviews.
