Koala Tablet Wall Mount - Screw-in Version: Universal Dock for iPads, iPad Air/Mini/Pro, Samsung Galaxy Tab/Notes, Android Tablets and More [Black Brackets]

These brackets were easy to install with a single screw and a drywall anchor, provided. Easy to slide the tablet in and out, and no buttons or ports get blocked. It seems a bit over-priced for what it is, just two small pieces of plastic, but it works well. I did have to add some padding to the front of the brackets to make the tablet sit straight, since this bracket allows for much thicker tablets than my Galaxy A7, so thin tablets will not sit straight up by themselves, and it will want to tip back at the top due to the extra space. I used stick-on chair leg pads on the brackets to support the top of the tablet from tilting back, which cannot be seen when the tablet is in the bracket.

I am nothing but satisfied over the Dockem Koala Tablet Wall Mount - Screw-in Version. I have an old Ipad Air hanging on the wall to use as a display for a weather station I have outside. I had used other means in the past to keep the ipad on the wall but was always worried it might fall. The two brackets for this wall mount each need one screw to hold them in place. Measuring the distance they need to be apart from each other so that the tablet fits easily is the only thing you need to take care about. You can mount the tablet in landscape or portrait mode depending on where you screw in the mounts. I have zero worry that the tablet will fall out .

It's a good mount but a bit pricey. Plan to be paying well for good design of the product and good design work on the instructions. They are thorough with good photos. Those two things are what you'll be paying for. I also bought the ProCase Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 Case - Leather Stand Folio Case Cover. I was worried that this case would prevent my also using the Dockem Koala Mount (wall mount) - by the specs of each product it won't work, and life is too short to be taking the tablet out of the case every time I want to hang it from the kitchen wall! But luckily, when the case is fully open and folded back (into the position it would be when laying flat on a desk), you can insert just the back half of the case into the Dockem Koala mount. It's a snug fit, you may have to wiggle it very slightly to drop it all the way in, but the Koala Mount then supports the tablet and case very well. Once you get the hang of it, it's quite easy to insert into the mount and take out - allowing you to leave the tablet permanently in this nice case as it should be. And you can then charge the tablet without removing it from either the case or the mount.

I wanted a way to use our home tablet as a HUD station for things like chores, but I also use it for work sometimes so I needed to easily/quickly be able to remove it. It’s INSANE how expensive wall mounts can be?? But for less than $20, these clips work perfectly! They’re easy to install (helpful if you have a level), and beats my setup for our last, very old android tablet—super strong sticky tape, not ideal! Of course this setup leaves the cable showing, but I had leftover cord cover from another project that does enough to hide it, which still allowing it to be plugged/unplugged easily. The only bummer is my Apple Pencil cant be on it while on the wall, which means when I go to use it sometimes it’s dead. A small nitpick though!

Works great for what we bought it for, make sure to use a level and mark exactly where you want it to go. We are using it for a docking station for a "task manager" tablet for my daughter. The plastic feels a little cheap, but she hasn't broke it yet! The cable holder is great too because when the cord gets pulled on it doesn't pull on the tablet.

Great price for what is so far a great mount- attractive, seems secure (once I got it screwed in- keep reading for THAT "adventure"), great quality for not-too-much money. However, I would STRONGLY recommend using hardware- particularly the drywall anchors- that you buy yourself rather than the cheap ones that come with this. They're standard drywall anchors, but the end is extra long and pointy, so that you hammer it in until you reach the treads, then screw it in the rest of the way. Then the metal screw goes through the hole in the mount and into the plastic anchor. The pointy end is basically supposed to create the pilot hole for the treaded part. I tried the first one...the pointed end started to make a hole in the drywall, but then started to bend. I was afraid maybe I was pounding into a stud, except it was only in a few millimeters, not nearly enough to be through the drywall. I figured maybe that one was just bad, so decided to try the second anchor (and I'd jerry-rig something else for the other bracket.) That one went in somewhat easily- no stud behind, so that was never the problem- but when it got up to the treads and I switched to a screwdriver, the treads started decimating my drywall. I could see the treads were starting to tear off the center of the anchor, and the wallpaper I was going through was starting to lift off around the hole, like a blister. I kept going, figuring it would be covered by the bracket anyway. I got it in, then screwed the bracket onto the wall. The wall around the anchor didn't look great and the bracket didn't feel very secure- very wobbly. I decided to try the first anchor again, the one that started to bend, figured maybe it was an oddly dense spot in the drywall or something. This time, though, I found a nail and made a pilot hole, hoping it wouldn't cause too much stress on the bent pointy end of the first anchor and I could just get up to the tread part and screw it in. I tried tapping it into the pilot hole and the whole pointed end broke off. I guess it was too damaged from when I tried using it on the first mount. Then I remembered that I had other drywall anchors, so I grabbed those. Much higher quality, the kind that are plastic, but like a toggle bolt where wings pop out on the other side of the drywall. I got the second mount in with no problem with my own anchor and screw, but feeling how secure that one was and how flush to the wall it was, made it clear that there was something wrong with the other anchor, the one that came with the product. I decided to redo that one- I unscrewed both brackets and re-did the first bracket, about 1.5" above the first one (because the bracket will cover that hole nicely). Then I re-did the second bracket, wasting the first my-own-anchor since it was too low now that I had to reposition. My anchors went in perfectly- easy to put in, no excessive marring of the wallpaper- and before I screwed the brackets in, I looked at the original hole- the treads from the first anchor had completely stripped off the anchor! I got pliers and pulled the treads out of the drywall- after stripping off the center of the anchor, they dug into my drywall, basically off to the side of where the hole was, so the hole was like twice as big, the wallpaper was all mangled. Not happy about that, but at least the bracket covers it. Two stars deducted for the crappy anchor quality and the irreparable damage it did to my wall.

i love it

Bought this item so I could hang my older iPad on the wall to use as a clock. I works perfectly, but I took off one star due to the price. I didn’t realize they were made of plastic, at that price I thought it was metal. I guess I’ll just have to see how long they last.
