Will it hold a Sony Trinitron CRT weighing in at about 55 lbs on the top shelf? I am planning on using it for a retro gaming station. Thanks!

This thing is actually pretty solid (much more than i assumed it would be when i bought it) and should not have a problem with holding that.

My husband said it will hold it but he would not recommend it because it is only held with tiny pins for the selves.He has an old real to real on the bottom self and that is around 45 lbs. Stereo on top with equalizer. Hope this helps.

I am not sure what weight it will hold. Currently it is holding a 22inch flat screen, just great!

I bought mine 2 years ago and I have my 60" Panasonic on top and my PS3, Wii and a 30LBS server on the middle shelf and about 50 LBS on the bottom shelf. It was a great buy but I wouldn't stand on it or anything like that and O my God the dust this shel collects in just hours. Hope this helps!

As Steve said. Mine holds a 20" CRT TV. As Kahits says, I would never roll it around. It is seated in the carpet for stability. You can read my original review here on Amazon.

I don't know the maximum weight of my equipment but I cannot put another piece of equipment on the shelves. I have my 42" TV, & center speaker on top shelf.Onkyo home theater receiver, and cable box on next shelf, 100 disk juke box and blue ray player on 3rd shelf and md player/recorder, dvd recorder/video player.on bottom shelf. It holds them sturdy. I am pleased. Again, I have all that I wanted on this stand with no shakiness or wobble.

No that small shelf is tiny. It wont even hold a cable set top box. I use this desk as a tv stand and that shelf is only big enough to hold my wii.

It will hold a 55" tv but moving it around your house on the cart, not so good. Doesn't fit through doorways, the legs on the cart are way too wide, so amagine having a 55" tv on the cart and trying to get it through a doorway. Good luck.

I can't give a number, but I believe it will hold anything you put on it. I have a 46" flat screen which is relatively light, but this is a strong piece.

I believe it would. I have my Sony receiver on it and its holds it with no problem.

Hi Sandy, yes, that shelf should be able to hold the monitor. However, be careful of the assembly. If not assembled properly, you can have some structural/function issues.

Currently we have stacked on this unit - bottom shelf Pyle receiver ~15 lbs, next shelf up - amplifier ~ 10 lbs, next shelf up approximately 50 vinyl albums ~ 10 lbs, next shelf up - record player ~ 5 lbs, top shelf - 16" computer monitor and stand ~ 7 lbs. If you balance your weight at the bottom of the unit, I believer 35 lbs on top will be ok. However, I do believe there is limit per shelf and a quick call to Whalen or their website should tell you what the weight limit is, I want to say the instructions indicated 50 lbs per shelf is the limit. But I would double check that.

It will probably hold the weight. The problem I had was the verticle supports aren't wide enough to fit my receiver between and also not deep enough to lift the top and fit it down from the top. Shelves aren't adjustable up and down either they are fixed.

I have a 32" flatscreen on the top, the middle holds a 5+/- lb av receiver and a middle surround speaker. I just tried sitting on the top shelf with the tv still on it and it did not seem like it would break. I am just under 200lbs. I did not put all my weight on it but enough to know it can hold about 50 lbs without worry. Id even go as far to say it holds 100lbs on the top shelf alone but you shouldn't put anything that heavy on it either way; no tv weighs that much that you wouldn't just mount to the wall. It is really unbelievably sturdy for the material and assembly. slight wobble but not fall apart wobble. you would have to try to break it in order to.

I don't know for sure. I have a 32" LCD TV on it which is not heavy. It seems very sturdy and I assume the name description (110#) implies it could hold 110 pounds. I don't doubt it. In my case, I have it installed in a travel trailer entertainment center and the limiting factor was the shelf I was attaching it to. It's well built and it has been great for our application.

It could probably hold an older TV weight wise but this shelf is thin. Im pretty sure it was designed for flat screens..

Would not advise putting a tube TV (not deep enough) or a flat screen bigger than 35" (not sturdy enough) on the top shelf. You should know the arms are all made on plastic. Hope this helps.
