Can this shelf actually hold a tv on it? TV is a 30" TV. I want to attach this shelving unit to the wall and the Tv will sit directly on 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.

Tough to answer ... I have an xbox, blueray player, soundbar, about 30 video game cartridges, powerstrip, 4 xbox controllers and a cable box all in mine. I did make sure to hit the studs when securing it, but it handles all of that really well.

The description states: "It features 4 open storage spaces including 2 adjustable shelves that can support up to 10 pounds and 2 lateral open spaces". I use the top on my shelve unit to display family pictures and have my TV wall mounted above them. I have my DVD player,Audio Receiver and cable DVR box inside on the shelves which probably take up all 10 lb capacity. If you absolutely need to set your set on top then you could consider putting a leg or brace in the center of the shelve unit to the floor for support. This of course defeats the idea of "wall mount" and you might as well get a cabinet.

Yes,you just need to add extra security for it,I have a 36 inch TV on mine:)

I wouldn't trust putting a TV on. I am surprised the thing doesn't fall under its own weight. The mount is rather flimsy

You can sit the TV on the Shelf. It seems sturdy enough. I sat on it and I'm about 200 lbs, but as always your results may vary. I have myTV on the wall above it.

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

I am using a 46 inch TV and I have about 6 inches between the bottom of the TV and the top shelf while I am using highest setting. I guess you could go higher but then you would only be using one bracket and it may not be stable. Anyone only using 1 bracket and going higher?

It depends on the TV. The original factory specification for this stand listed the capacity as being 150 pounds. Also the width of the base is a factor as the top shelf is only a little over 17" wide and you would not want to use with a TV having a wider base. If used with a TV larger that 55", there will be overhang on both sides and you would not want to position the TV near a walking area where it might be brushed and knocked over.

I have this mount directly to drywall with very good anchors from home depot. DO NOT use the simple compression anchors. Get the WingIts World's Strongest Fastener. You wont regret it. I have a 32 inch tv and a cable box. Sorry, dont not use the second shelf.

It can probably hold the TV but it would also be dwarfed and look more like a nightstand.Besides - the company only suggests a 50 in or below.I have a 52 in flat screen and I would not suggest anything bigger.I hope this helped.Factory Specs:Accommodates up to 50-Inch flat panel tv Large open shelf stores av components Doors hide gaming equipment and dvds Sturdy Metal Frame

I put a 39" Samsung and it held it fine. Even could have gone 42". Just make sure the tv is under the 26lbs it claims to handle. I personally think it could handle 30lbs. It is a very solid stand. No pic on here can show you that it is a truly well built. For the price, I have seen very similar stands go for 3 times the price.

I mounted it with the top shelf on the bottom and the bottom shelf on the top, so the swivel stuff (which I think would be difficult to remove) hangs harmlessly from the bottom of the top shelf, out of sight and out of mind. The unit is rock solid that way. I have a 50" flat screen on it (although well below the 60 pound weight limit) and it's very solid and not in danger of going anywhere. I probably wouldn't exceed 60 pounds (depending on how the load is distributed - if near the corners it would probably handle quite a bit more) but the unit is more than solid enough for a large TV.

The max weight is specd at 50 lbs. I'm thinking that 30 is more reasonable and you're not putting huge amounts of weight on these shelves anyway. They are made for components and movie and remotes and stuff. The shelf height plays along with the inside tracks on the unit and it's pretty flexible on where you can place it. You can go right up to the bottom of the TV being used on the stand or you can space them out and buy extra shelves from the company so you can double up the space or amounts of components.

It can, but it will probably not be stable. It doesnt have the weight to the wood like a regular wood shelf would have.

The shelves hold a lot of weight easily. Is it the old type of TV or a flat screen. If it's a flat screen, I would say no problem. If it's the old style, that's a lot of weight right in the middle and I'd suggest you put a board under it to distribute the weight more. Hope that helps!

Yes you can as long as the tv doesn't interfere with the shelf clearance. The tv mount bracket can be moved to any height you want and so can the shelves. I purchased one and wouldn't buy it again though, the shelves were not very stable.

It can. Just don't put that shelf on when putting together the unit. Shouldn't hurt the stability of the unit.

Technically, it might hold the weight if the 30 pounds were evenly distributed across the entire unit. Or, it might support a smaller (17-20") flat-screen, but I don't believe it would provide the stability or support necessary for something of that size and value. I wouldn't recommend it for what you want.

I Wouldn't recommend mounting it on the wall unless you use some type of shelving setup to Support the unit from below. The shelves are made of press board, and I'm assuming this product wouldn't hold itself up without pulling the boards apart. Now if you buy a couple "L" brackets and attach to the bottom, it Would probably be OK as long as you're not going to load it up with 100 lbs if stuff. So, short answer; not without additional hardware.
