This stand was easy to assemble and seems quite sturdy & looks good in my living room. I am using it to store boxes of CD's, but I may order a second unit to replace my old stereo rack stand. One drawback is that the top shelf has no hole to pass cords through, which would facilitate putting an amplifier or tuner on top. However, the shelves are interchangable, so I suggest that you put a shelf with a hole in it on the top, and put the "top shelf" with no hole in it on the bottom, where you don't really need a hole.

Although I knew the dimensions of the unit, it is too large for my shelf to house all the components. Assembled three of the four shelves because of the size. Sturdy and offers wire guides through the shelves.

Item arrived with some rough shipping/handling issues, but Amazon was very nice to compensate. Cannot say enough good things about all my experiences with Amazon.
The shelving unit which I use for my stereo system is very sturdy, materials first rate, and was very easy to assemble. I recommend it for stereos, yet have no TV, so I cannot comment there. Nice product, worth the money, thanks.

I bought this cabinet as a replacement for one my then-fiance (now wife) managed to break (she has special skills when it comes to destroying nice things). I had fairly low expectations considering the price, but was pleasantly surprised to find a relatively sturdy, easy to assemble and attractive cabinet arrive a few days later. It would be nice if there was a way to adjust the shelves a little, but the way it's designed and constructed makes this impossible. I just modified the order of my components and managed to get everything to fit nicely.

I spent quite some time trying to find an audio/TV rack for my bedroom. I have one of those oversized mattresses. The total height of the bed frame, box-spring, and mattress is around 35". Because of this, I was having a terrible time trying to find a decent looking rack that could hold my 46" flat screen that was high enough to see while laying in bed.
Since I liked the basic design of the Sanus AFA stand, it dawned on me that I may be able to combine two of them to reach the desired height. I'm happy to say that it worked! When you combine two, you can use four smaller shelves and the top shelf. The total height of the two racks combined (5-Shelves) is about 42 1/4". You'll also have an extra top shelf in case the first gets scratched up, or you can use the extra top shelf as the base shelf.
Even with the double stack, the unit appears to be very strong and stable. My tv weighs around 40 lbs., which is well under the 215 lb limit, and doesn't cause the unit to wobble. The other shelves are weighted with a channel speaker and a couple of receivers.
I originally thought that the surface of the unit was going to be slightly rough, but it is actually smooth and has a nice semi-gloss lacquer-like appearance. It actually looks very decent for a budget stand.
The stands were shipped in their retail boxes. Basically, a tag was slapped on them and they were shipped out. One of the cylinders was slightly crushed, but useable. In addition, it looked like I received one that was previous returned. Two of the shelves has some scrapes, or something, on their bottoms. It really didn't matter to me though since I placed them closest to the floor. I guess if I laid on my back I could see the scratches. LOL
In any event, this is a very nice unit and I would recommend it to anybody that needs a good quality rack at a great price.
