HangSmart no-stud TV mount review: what it holds, and what to check first
A no-stud TV mount that hangs on angled nails in drywall — $59.99 for one TV, with nail holes the size of a pen tip.
Best for: Renters and anyone who cannot find a stud where the TV needs to go, with a TV well inside the stated limits.
$59.99 per TV; 2-pack $107.99 See HangSmart prices
Most TV mounts want a stud behind the exact spot where you want the screen. HangSmart sells a mount that uses angled nails driven into drywall instead, so you can place the TV where you want and leave holes the size of a pen tip. The company says each mount was independently tested to hold 150 lb and TVs up to 100 inches. That is the key claim on this page, and we have not tested it. This review is built from HangSmart's own product page and policies, read in November 2026.
Who this is for
- Renters who want to avoid large wall holes and drilling into studs
- Homeowners who want the TV centred where no stud falls
- People moving house, since the brand says the mount can be removed and reinstalled

What is good, and what is not
Good
- It does not need a stud behind the TV, and HangSmart says the holes are no bigger than a pen tip.
- HangSmart describes it as reusable: remove it and remount it, for instance after moving.
- It is priced at $59.99 for one TV, with a 10% discount on the 2-pack.
- Matching extras exist: a soundbar mount, a wire concealer and a replacement level guide.
Not so good
- The 150 lb and 100-inch limits are HangSmart's claim of independent testing, and the page we read does not link to a test report. — the bigger and heavier the TV, the more you should ask the company for the report, or use a stud mount.
- The mount anchors in the wall surface rather than a stud, so the condition of the wall matters. — if the drywall is damaged or crumbling, or you are unsure what the wall is, ask HangSmart before hanging a TV above a seating area.
- Returns need the product unused and a receipt, within 30 days of delivery. — once you have installed it and hung a TV, it is no longer unused, so you cannot try it and send it back.
- One box mounts one TV, so a second TV means a second box or the 2-pack. — only a cost point, but easy to miss if you are planning two rooms.
The verdict
For a renter or anyone with no stud where the TV needs to sit, $59.99 is a small price to avoid drilling large holes, and one box covers one TV. Keep the TV well inside the stated limits, make sure the wall is sound drywall or plaster, and ask HangSmart for the test report if the TV is large or heavy. A stud mount remains the safest choice for a big TV above a sofa. Read the return rule before you open the box, because an installed mount cannot be returned. If your TV is modest and your wall is sound, this is the cheapest way to hang it without an installer.
If it is not the right fit
No single product suits everyone. If the drawbacks above rule it out for you, these are where we would look next — including options that earn us nothing:
| Option | From | Better if |
|---|---|---|
| A stud-mounted wall bracket | — | A large or heavy TV above seating, where anchoring in a stud is the standard choice |
| A TV stand or floor stand | — | A rental where you want nothing on the wall at all |
