SANUS and safe kids worldwide launch TV safety initiative :: giveaway

Posted on June 8, 2013June 9, 2013 by Jaime

disclaimer giveaway

image001I am not sure about you but I LOVE the look of a TV mounted on the wall.  For this we use SANUS.  I will receive a SANUS wall mount for sharing this information with you!  But we wanted to get the giveaway up asap, first tho let’s tell you some facts!

For many Americans, a flat panel TV is a great way to enjoy family time and entertainment. However, most parents are unaware of the safety risks that flat panel TVs pose for kids. Due to increasing size and new ultra thin designs, today’s flat panel TVs can easily tip over when bumped or pulled, toppling off of furniture and causing injury or even death.

Bringing this risk to the forefront, SANUS, the leading designer and manufacturer of flat panel TV wall mounts, has partnered with Safe Kids Worldwide. By educating consumers on the risk of unsecured flat panel TV’s, SANUS and Safe Kids Worldwide offer safe solutions for families across the nation by reducing TV tip-over related injuries and fatalities.

A 2011 US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) report on flat panel TV safety revealed:image002

  • A child is killed every three weeks from an unsecured TV
  • Every 45 minutes a child visits an emergency room due to a TV tip-over related injury
  • Between 2000 and 2011, 215 fatalities have resulted from TV tip-over
  • An estimated 17,000 people each year, the majority of which are children, are treated for injuries from TV tip-overs
  • Reported cases have increased almost 25% from 2006 to 2010, and over the last 10 years, injuries have increased by 31%

SANUS TV Mounting Tips:

  • Easy 1, 2, 3 installation with a wall template to ensure even placement
  • Online video walkthrough of simple installation available at any time
  • No additional tools necessary – all required installation hardware is included in package

    I think ours is 59 inches. To me it is huge but we got it at a very significant discount at Costco. All I could afford when I was in college was a 5″ screen black and white tv. We would mount it in our living room because right now it is on a cabinet on a stand and the kids do climb up on their toys to try to get to it.

  90. michelle koerner says:
    June 8, 2013 at 7:49 am

    We have a 42″ tv. It is in our living room, which is where we would keep it. But right now it is sitting on a low, not so sturdy stand. I would LOVE to mount it! Not just for the safety reasons, but there are always tons of little people fingerprints on it, not to mention cat hair from our cats trying to chase stuff on the screen.
