I am looking for a bookshelf that is sturdy enough for me to place my 36" flat screen television on top of. Can this shelf support this?

Definitely not! It cannot hold very much weight at all. Mine collapsed under the weight of about 12 books.

ABSOLUTELY NOT. It is pretty much made of paper that's pressed together, had it at my office but couldn't even hold books

Depending on the floor you have, if you have a hard floor yes. I love this Bookshelf !

Hi Austin B. Our products can hold a lot of weight but we don't recommend this item for a TV. You can take a look at our recommend weight limits here: http://www.waybasics.com/faq#faq5Our customers have put TVs on the Cozy Bench.

I think it can, I put dozens of heavy books on my shelves. Follow the directions for putting them together you should be fine!

No it wont look good hence the word "book shelf" buy a "tv stand" usually you can find ones that say how much weight they can with stand.

I would say yes. The shelves are, in my opinion, strong enough to hold each one of the things listed above. The tv would have to be pretty small though, if u were trying to set it in ine of the inner shelves. They are about 8 inches wide. (I'm no expert, and I did not measure it)

It's just a stand, not a mount, so your TV would just sit on it. There is a hole for a screw in the center of the shelf but I think you would have to buy separate mounting hardware from Hafele for that...

No, and the shelves are Not sturdy enough for a TV...especially a "light" one...it's too easy to knock the whole unit over.

I have on the top of the bookshelf a small tv, weighs about 15 to 20 pounds. The shelves hold books fine, my 7 yr old has many. They do supply brackets to secure shelf to wall for safety. Pretty sturdy when put together.

My tv is not quite that big, but it should be fine. This is a a very sturdy shelf, and I was pleasantly surprised that it arrived fully assembled.

The bookcase is extremely heavy and would be able to support a substantial amount of weight. I can't tell you how many pounds but it was a lot of work just bringing the shipping box into our house. Its very very solid!. I don't think you'd have a problem with any size flat screen tv. I can't give you gurantees but the item is built like a battleship. You would never want to have to return it so be sure you want it before buying it.

Yes, this unit is very sturdy, I would not hesitate to put a TV on top of it.

It's very sturdy and able to hold a decent amount of weight. I'm almost 170 lbs and can sit on the top (when shelf is horizontal) with any feeling of wobble or give. You'd want to mount the shelf to a wall if you put anything heavy on top.

The shelf has a specific weight limitation. If the 26" LG flat screen weight is within that limit then use it.

I believe a 30" tv will be ok on this shelf. As long as you get it in the studs you should be ok.

I reenforced ours. It held the weight pretty well but it tended to lean forwards where we have it placed. It is a very sturdy shelf and will hold plenty enough books. I can upload a picture if you would like to see our shelf full of books.

Technically yes,but shelf will be very wobbly. You need two shelves to make it stable.

Yes, the shelf wide and sturdy; it will easily support a cable box. I have an audio engine wireless speaker on my shelf that I use for presentations.

It is probably sturdy enough to, the sides of the tv will overhang the sides of the shelf. We have a 50" on it no problem. You can also remove one of the shelf layers to make it shorter and more stable.

The shelf is about half-inch thick solid wood and the supporting legs are metal. I can't imagine there would be any problem with all that. As a precaution and reassurance, add the various items one at a time to make sure nothing snaps along the way! Good luck.

I would say 'yes', definitely sturdy enough. It's really a nice addition to any location. I'm using mine for a tv stand in my bedroom. The open shelf holds my DVD player while the drawer holds the manuals & remotes. I could easily use it in any other location. It's sleek & attractive as well as functional.
