ECHOGEAR EGLT1 Tilting Mount

A full 15 degrees of tilt, UL certified — the above-fireplace budget pick.

$36.99

Overall score 7.4/10

Pros

  • + 15 degrees of tilt is enough for genuine above-fireplace use, unlike shallower rivals
  • + UL certified with public documentation and load testing to four times its rating
  • + Tilting forward for port access solves the main annoyance of a flush mount
  • + Hardware arrives pre-divided by TV type, which speeds up installation

Cons

  • ECHOGEAR publishes no numeric VESA maximum, which is a real gap when you are checking fit
  • Concrete installations need hardware bought separately
  • No post-install height adjustment
  • No cable management raceway

ECHOGEAR EGLT1 Tilting Mount review: what the specs say

A full 15 degrees of tilt, UL certified — the above-fireplace budget pick. At $36.99, ECHOGEAR's 2015 model sits in the middle of the range — the TV Mounts we compare run from $27.99 to $429.99. It scores 7.4/10 overall, calculated from published specifications across 8 categories rather than from a subjective impression.

Its strongest showing is Value at 9.0/10 — capability and build relative to price. The weakest is Cable Management at 4.5/10, which is the trade-off to weigh before buying: if that is the specification you care about most, one of the alternatives below will serve you better.

Worth knowing before you buy: ECHOGEAR publishes no numeric VESA maximum, which is a real gap when you are checking fit; and concrete installations need hardware bought separately. Every specification on this page comes from ECHOGEAR's own documentation or a verified retail listing — where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.
