OmniMount ECSB Component Shelf Wall Shelf for TVs and Video Accessories

OmniMount ECSB Component Shelf Wall Shelf for TVs and Video AccessoriesThis shelf is quite attractive and easy to install. The depth of it is greater than I was imaging, so if you're using it for a smallish item (like a DVD or cable box), it will stick out form the wall farther than you need.

This is a quality unit, BUT the picture gives you the impression that the shelf does not extend out very far. The arm of the shelf extends so that the glass shelf begins 5" from the wall and extends out to 21" from the wall. This is the only complaint I have as the unit is otherwise well designed, sturdy, and the glass shelf(tempered) is first class. My suggestion, design a sliding extendable/retractable arm. The shelf is used to hold a direct TV receiver below a small wall hung 21" LCD in sewing room.

This is a great wall mount shelf. There aren't a lot of 30 lb shelf mount speakers out there. I have Klipsch RS-62s that weigh in at 26 lbs each, and the shelves accomodate them. The down side is that one of the shelves was sent with screws that had no thread! Also you HAVE TO install thise into a stud, period! When you initially drill, make sure you find wood shavings as the drill bit comes out. When you install drill the other holes, MAKE SURE you measure from the ground to the top of the wall plate to assure the speakers will be at the same height. Also, make sure that before you do your drilling deep, LEVEL the plate using a LEVEL you can buy at any hardware store, so your speakers don't tilt in one direction or the other. Make sure the top side is on TOP and put the plastic cover on BEFORE you attach the glass, and that the glass is faced so the rounded edge is in the front! Good Luck!

I looked all over the internet for a mechanism or shelf in which to mount my rear surround Paradigm Studio 20 V5 speakers, of which each weighs 24 lbs. This product is exactly what I was looking for. The build quality is luxurious; and when it is mounted correctly into a wood stud, it is extremely secure. I have only two suggestions being;

1) Don't bother using the supplied screws if you are going to mount the unit

into a wood stud as the screw head will strip and it will take you forever

to screw it down. I recommend purchasing four 3" bolts designed for wood

application and use a ratchet to tighten. I would not mount this unit

simply into drywall and expect it to support 30lbs, but after mounting it

into a 2 x 4, I would bet that it could easily support 50 lbs.

2) Others complained that the shelve swivelled freely after installation from

side to side. I purchased two shelve units and simply applied extra

torque on the nut and bolt which mounts the swing arm to the base plate,

and now there is adequate tension so that there is resistance when I move

the shelf from side to side; resolving any issues with the shelf moving

freely on it's own.

I would not hesitate to recommend this shelf unit as I will guarentee you will be extremely satisfied with your purchase.

I bought two of these shelves, one for my TiVo and the other for a DVD player. I was able to install them one above the other and they look great. The glass for the shelf is very thick and it would probably support a TV! The only thing I found odd was that that if was impossible to tighten the bracket so it would not move back and forth. It really isn't a problem unless the shelf was in a high traffic area....which would not be a good idea anyway. Nice looking, well made and gets the job done easy.

Organize It All Glass Shelf with Chrome Towel Bar

Organize It All Glass Shelf with Chrome Towel BarBe careful when installing. The brackets need to be far enough apart to accomodate the glass shelf, but close enough to hold the towel bar securely. There's only about an 1/8" tolerance to meet both requirements. Also, picture doesn't show how far out the towel bar protrudes, which makes for a not so streamlined profile. If space is an issue, you might consider the other Neu Home Glass Shelves with towel bars that drop straight down from the shelf.

This shelf is very nicely made. The chrome is shiny and the glass shelf is fairly thick-not flimsy. The added towel bar is great in a small space. Great price.

WIREtech 99092 Stacking Cabinet Organizer 17.5x14.75x10.5-in.

WIREtech 99092 Stacking Cabinet Organizer 17.5x14.75x10.5-in.This is a great pantry item for creating more space. I put packaged items (such as pasta) in roll out bin and canned and bottled items on top. I purchased 4 of them. They ARE sturdy wen properly assembled. And that is the BUT. The instructions that come with are worthless you can just throw them out. It takes a while to figure the whole thing out. Pay close attention to the black pieces "piece F". Be aware that it takes 2 each of them to snap around each post where you want top of slide out basket to be placed and 2 each where you want top shelf to rest. Alaso be aware that these pieces are etched with directions as to which end should be towards top. If this item is not properly assembled, I am sure it WOULD fall apart as one reviewer stated. Once you put one together, it becomes easy with any additional ones.

Oh dear, I suppose the first reviewer received a dud.

I had bought heavy duty utility shelves that use this techonology with great results. So, I thought I'd give this little unit a try. It easy to put together and in no time at all. Everything that was previously an unorganized mess is now organized and with two levels the space is fully utilized! Shampoo, conditioner bottles, and other toiletries are easier to find. No more mad morning rushes to find facial cleanser or mouth wash:) It's holding up very well.

I was not sure how to get those little plastic pieces marked F together around the legs of this unit until someone showed me that there is a small line on the inside of each piece that has to line up with one of the lines on the legs. Then they clip quite easily. Before I knew this, I was trying to line the top of the piece with one of the lines on the legs and it would not clip together. After I was told about lining up the lines, I had this thing put together in 3 minutes. It's a good shelf but it has instructions (with no words) that left out a few details.

I bought these a while back to use in the cabinets under my bathroom sinks. I didn't want permanent fixtures for ease of assembly and protability. There is a slight learning curve to putting it together...and I mean slight as I did it without instructions...doesn't take a rocket scientist, only a bit of thinking. I have moved a couple of times since and have brought these units with me. Each time I am able to take it apart and put them back together easily. I can always find a use for these and have used them in the bathrooms and the kitchen.

We bought one of these to fit a tricky space under our bathroom sink. It's pricey, but it was the only organizer that we found that would fit the space we had.

If you're familiar with the plastic snap collar type connectors, this goes together pretty easily and when it's together it's pretty sturdy.

Designs2Go 3 Tier Wide TV Stand

Convenience Concepts Designs-2-Go Wide 3-Tier TV Stand, WhiteWe just received this product today, and I was able to set it up easily by myself. It looks very nice and isn't very heavy or too big to move around after putting it together. The shelves are a wood painted a shiny black. The poles are made of metal. There is a sort of cable tie that you have to attach yourself at the base of the lower pole and screw into the wall with a provided hook. We're not going to use it. I don't usually give out 5 stars but so far I can't find anything really wrong with this product. If anything changes, I'll make note of that later, but so far it looks very sturdy.

EDIT: One year later and it still works well!

This review is for Convenience Concepts three-tier TV Stand bought from Amazon.

Item Number: 131031 or R5-100

UPC 095285402113

The shelves are made of black-colored particleboard. According to the shipping box, the unit complies with CARB Phase 1 formaldehyde emissions standards in CCR 93120.0 (a). I did not notice any odor emanating from the shelves.

Some specifications:

Shipping weight: 33 pounds (according to shipping box)

The weight limit is 85 pounds (according to a label on one of the large shelves)

Top and Bottom Shelves: 42" wide and approximately 16" deep

Center Shelf: 30" wide and approximately 16" deep

Distance between bottom and center shelf: 11"

Distance between center and top shelf: 7 3/4"

Total Height: 22"

WHAT I LIKED

Unpacking to final assembly took about 15 minutes. The instruction booklet was in English and included diagrams. Unpacking the stand probably took longer than the actual assembly of the unit. This was the easiest assembly of ready-to-assemble furniture I have ever constructed.

The stand is stable and looks nice for ready-to-assemble furniture.

WHAT I DID NOT LIKE

The biggest negative of the stand's design is the placement of the metal posts. I prefer to place electronics side by side rather than to stack them to better allow heat to dissipate.

Although the bottom shelf is 42 inches wide, there is not not enough useable space to place components, like an audio/video receiver and an DVR, side by side because the distance between the front post and the rear post is only 11 inches. My DVR and receiver are both wider than 11". The distance between left front post and the right front post is 26 inches and there was enough clearance to allow me to stack my DVR and receiver. This is not the best way to place the electronic equipment.

One of the metal posts had adhesive on it that I could not completely remove.

The posts have metal that wraps around the post. There is a seam where the two ends of the metal meet. After screwing the posts into the boards, some of the posts' seams were facing forward and visible from the front of the unit. From several feet back the seams are not very noticeable (actually need to be looking for them to see them) but I would think the unit would have been designed to have the seams face toward the back of the unit.

Wires from the electronics are clearly visible.

Made in Communist China.

The Pros:

Great price.

It goes together quickly with just a little effort and no tools.

It looks pretty good and it's fairly sturdy.

The manufacturer is responsive and easy to work with.

The Cons:

The fulfillment center sat on this order for a full week before shipping.

When it finally showed up it was missing parts.

I had to wait another full week before I got what I needed to assemble.

Want Designs2Go 3 Tier Wide TV Stand Discount?

It's a 3 shelves TV stand but I assembled up to to 2 shelves (meaning your middle shelf is my top shelf) mainly because it becomes too high with 40" TV for my small place. Assembly was easy and I got it with free shipping through prime. So, it's a great buy.

Melannco Nesting U Shaped Shelves, Black, Set of 3

Melannco Nesting U Shaped Shelves, Black, Set of 3I bought these to use as DVD shelves, and they serve that purpose well, since they have raised ends. The quality is not great; there is a blemish on one corner. They are cheap fiberboard, but they serve their purpose.

However, they smell strongly of urine. Upon unpacking them, my whole living room quickly took on the smell. I am going to wait and see if they settle down any before I mount them to the wall, because it's disgusting. How disappointing.

Update: This product bears the distinction of being my first Amazon return. After leaving it to air out outside overnight, the smell is still unbearable, and is making us ill. I have opted for these instead: ASIN:B006DU0C72 Trista [Groovy Colours] U-Shaped Leather Wall Shelf / Bookshelf / Floating Shelf (Set of 3)]] Much more expensive, but hopefully better quality (and less smelly).

I bought these shelves to put in my son's room. They are solid black. Other reviewers talked about a weird smell that came from them and yes, they did smell when I first got them, so I used a damp rag to wipe them down and then dried them off immediately. I let them set out for a day before installing them and haven't noticed any smell coming from them anymore. My son's room is 12 x 14 and he sleeps with the door closed and we still can't smell them. I think they are great. I'd give them 5 stars if I didn't have to wipe them off but they do what they are designed to do...hold small books and nick-nacks.

These are made of paper. They look nice, however, when I received mine, one side was broken off of one ot these. It may have been due to the packing or the handling of the product. Not bad for the price. I will try to glue the side back on, otherwise will have to pitch that one.

This product was not at ALL what I expected to receive! It looked so nice in the photos that I actually ordered two boxes; one for each child's room. The largest one was a lot smaller than I thought it was going to be, and very narrow as well; a 4x6 frame hardly fits on the small one. I'll blame that one on myself b/c I'm sure it listed the dimensions in the item details. Although it wasn't what I pictured it to be, the worst part of this item is it's construction. Now, I realize that for the $26 for a 3-peice shelving unit, you're most likely going to get particle board, but they could've at least made it so it didn't fall apart (literally) when I took it out of it's box!...I kid you not. POS is what this is....very disappointed.

When I received the shelves, two had already broken, though I didn't notice right away. I had emptied the boxes they arrived in, and then, more the fool me, threw the boxes away. Once I realized that the shelves were broken, I checked the others, only to find most of them to be loose. Since I threw the boxes away, I couldn't return the shelves, so I'm stuck with them.

Soho Shelves

Soho Shelf in Blackif your looking for a dvd / blu ray/ video game mantel look no further cause this thing holds at least 50 to 100 cases.

I just couldn't wait to get this. I collect books and I feel that one can never have enough shelves! I currently own 4 full size book shelves and am running out of wall space so this shelf was perfect for me. The size is attractive with larger coffee table books and a couple of vases. I love the espresso color and it really classes up a room. Shipping was on time, not as soon as I would have liked but it was delivered exactly on the date it would arrive. It had easy assembly. I am happy with this purchase and highly recommend it.

Walker Edison Bermuda 44-Inch Corner TV Stand

Walker Edison 44-Inch Glass and Metal Corner TV Stand, BlackI liked the black tinted glass and it was exactly what I was looking for. I saw this stand on other sites for much more money, so I got a great deal from Amazon. I have no complaints... it was easy to assemble and it looks great with my 50" plasma TV above it

UPDATE 11/4/10 : It is in stock. If you are looking for a sturdy, stylish and affordable stand then seriously consider this one.

I shopped around for some time looking for a stand that would hold my new HDTV. The retail stores I went to had two choices that I saw. Choice 1 were stands grossly overpriced and choice 2 were stands that were overpriced and cheap quality. I found TV stand searching on the internet painful. Most websites had to many choices, to little information about the stands and very little customer feedback. I admit buying the stand even through Amazon was a gamble.

I have owned this stand for roughly 5 months now. The stand has a manufacturers weight capacity of 250 pounds. My 47" HDTV does not weigh anything near that but I like knowing that it can handle the weight. The unit once assembled is very sturdy and I believe would hold 250 pounds. I would recommend having 2 people available to move the completed unit because it is somewhat heavy and awkward to move alone, however I managed to do it myself.

The stand has plenty of space to hold your TV, cable box, gaming system, odd and ends etc. I don't have a ruler handy but I can tell you that I have more than enough space and clearance on the shelves.

I could go on and on about how this stand is great but I will sum it up. It is a solid stand that has plenty of room and looks awesome. ( I got the black glass) The height from the floor to the top shelf is perfect for viewing my TV. Cable management out the back is adequate. (The picture gives you a good idea what you are working with) I would buy this again and highly recommend this stand.

We purchased this for a very tight corner, and it works perfectly. Very easy to assemble. The back panel is great to keep all the wires out of the way. I would suggest making sure all your connectors are in place before placing the TV on top. Because it is in a corner attaching other connectors to the TV can be a hassle after the fact. We put a 46" TV on the stand and it looks just fine. Actually the design of the stand makes it almost invisible under the TV, which we're happy with.

This is a nice looking contemporary corner unit and is fairly easy to set up. Two people should be involved, because you will need an extra set of hands to turn the unit over when you are done. I had the back (narrow side) facing me for the assembly; then it's one turn back towards the corner and another turn and you're done! The reason for a 4 star rating was that the holes in the cable management bracket (on the bottom) did not exactly line up onto the screw plates on the underside of the top glass. I used a round metal file to slightly enlarge both brackets on the outside of each L-shaped bracket. Extra parts are supplied. I also used some WD-40 to lubricate the screw threads to make installing easier. All in all this is a very nice unit for the price and will compliment your HD TV.

Want Walker Edison Bermuda 44-Inch Corner TV Stand Discount?

We have a wide open passage from the living room to the bay breakfast area, many windows and plants and all white oak flooring. This simple glass stand is elegant in its simplicity, and the dark bronze legs are a perfect frame for the Sony 46" HDTV. We have it placed in that passageway to the outside, and it makes a decorative statement that complements both rooms. You can assemble simply in less than 30 minutes (they even include extra caps and smaller parts); the result is sturdy, and elegant. Best money I could have spent, and it arrived two days after I placed the order. Don't worry about backing it into a corner or against a wall (unless you have a roustabout dog or young adventurous children). It would easily take a 52" flat screen as well.

Con-Tact Premium Ribbed Shelf Liner 18 in x 15 ft

Con-Tact Premium Ribbed Shelf Liner 18 in x 15 ftThis Con-Tact shelf liner is great, probably the best shelf liner I've used. It is *very* easy to cut, which makes installation a breeze. With other shelf liners -I'm thinking of the Ikea stuff, which is especially bad -it is tough to cut straight lines, meaning lots of annoying trimming. None of that necessary with the Con-Tact; I got a clean cut the first time, every time.

My only quibble is the size, particularly the width. It seems like I was coming up *just* a little short in many places. I would have preferred it to be 20 inches, rather than 18 inches wide. Maybe my kitchen just has wide drawers, so this might not be an issue for you.

If you are a Costco member, you can buy it there for half the going rate here.

This product is made in Taiwan.

I prefer to use this shelf liner under bathroom cabinets. It's sturdy & clans up easily. It's a bit slick, so items slide out easily, but you do want to tack it down, some way, probably. I prefer this type over the adhesive type that is such a PITA to remove if/when you want to change it out.

I bought this liner because I thought it would be easy to clean but the ridges actually make it harder. Also, it's a little thinner than I thought it would be but so far has not caused any issues. Next time I will try a cork liner as I heard it works very well, is thick and easy to clean.

HyLoft 164 96-Inch by 48-Inch Super Pro Ceiling Mount Shelf, White

HyLoft 164 96-Inch by 48-Inch Super Pro Ceiling Mount Shelf, WhiteI'm very pleased with this shelf, which is well-made, rigid, and well painted. However, I have certain observations/caveats.

* My version of this shelf appears rather unlike the picture on this product. I got mine from globalindustrial.com, which was by far the best price at the time (no problems with them, incidentally). My shelf seems to match the look of the one on the HyLoft web site, so perhaps what I got is just the new and improved model. Mine has much more substantial-seeming stiffening bars under the mesh of each of the four 2'-wide elements of the shelf. It has no central beam as shown in the pic. My shelf also has a degree of diagonal cross-bracing. I take all these differences to be good things. All told, this shelf are very strong-seeming. I've loaded it up and swung on it monkey-bar fashion, and the deflection seems acceptable to me.

* There's talk in the product description of the mounting height being from 24"-44". In fact, you can make it pretty much as short as you like without any problems, simply by using only the lower part of the leg and cutting it down as much as you like. This would likely be necessary if you're wanting to mount tight up under a significantly sloping roof.

* The instructions were entirely sufficient to allow one to install the shelf, and the whole installation process was very easy. However, I think that the major flaw in the instructions concerned how best to set the height of the shelf. I'd think that anybody who gets shelves like this is really trying to eke out every last inch of space, and so will probably try and set the shelf as low as possible. Given that (in my case, as noted above) there are stiffening bars hanging BELOW the frame of the shelf, it's important to take this extra height into account when siting the shelf frame. This was obvious to me (though not necessarily too easy to measure accurately), but may not be to others. If you don't have your wits about you, you might end up setting the shelf so that your garage door bumps into it. This is especially true given that, when raised, most garage doors end up ABOVE the tracks they run on. A little slip in your calculations and you could ruin your garage doors. I'd think that a bit of bold text in the instructions would be worthwhile to cover this topic.

* The adjustment holes on the legs would be much more useful if the holes were drilled twice as frequently. The strength would not be significantly compromised, but it would be much easier to set it up. It's trivial for the manufacturer to drill holes, but the average home-owner is less inclined and/or able to drill through chunks of steel.

* The swivel at the end of the mounting legs is designed to track the rafter/joist to which you're mounting. If you're mounting to a horizontal-running joist, or to a normal sloping rafter (such that the sides of the rafter are plumb, and the axis of the rafter slopes up to the peak of the roof), then things are fine. However, if you want to mount to something that isn't plumb on at least one face, then you're out of luck. The same problem would occur if you wanted to mount the shelf up under any sort of domed roof with a radial raftering pattern.

* I live in California, where having things be seismically sound is considered important. Even though my shelf came with diagonal braces to run between the legs on the short side, there was no extra strapping to allow you to brace the shelf to the wall. In my case, because I shortened the legs significantly, I had enough material left over that I was able to cook up some extra seismic strapping. At least for fault-line residents, this product would have been better had it come with an earthquake kit (or had one available at extra cost). Imagine this shelf, which already weighs about 100lbs swinging around with its 600lbs load, and you can see what I mean.

This was my first time to use the Hyloft system. Have to say it was easier than I thought. I was concerned about the reviews saying your measurements have to be perfect, it is actuall fairly forgiving. I would recommend the use of a laser to make it a easier line up and you will need help to measure the long span, however after that you can do the job your self. It looks great and I have plans to add a smaller unit to the other garage soon.

This item added lots of storage space to my garage, especially since I have high ceilings. It was not difficult to install, however I took my time up front to make lots of measurements. The ceiling-mounted brackets MUST be spaced exactly as described in the instructions, and they MUST be square to each other. If you're not comfortable with finding ceiling joists and making precise (and square) measurements, then get some help. Once the brackets are installed though, the rest of the installation is very easy.
