Should I buy this one, or should I buy one with a shelf? (I am a mobile DJ) Dose this one have a self, or can one be put on?

Cesar, the one I purchased came with a shelf and SHOULD come with one for this price. If it doesn't, I'd continue to search elsewhere... Try American Musical Supply...

There is no shelf. I use this along with my current laptop stand. You also can not add one.

This one does not have a shelf. The top comes off completely to expose the deck. If you need a shelf for your laptop I would buy a separate stand if you are going to get this case.

I don't think a shelf can be put on. You either buy one with a shelf or one without. It depends how you like to look at the crowd when DJ'ing. If you buy one with a shelf then your computer is directly in front of you and you when you look straight forward you see your computer (perhaps this is what you want). For me when I look straight forward I want to be able to see the crowd so that I can read the crowd and so I put my computer on the side of my DJ set up. But it's really about the DJ's preference.

This one does not have the retractable shelf. I use my Crane stand to hold my laptop. Keep in mind, if you get the case with the shelf that it will overlap so if you are setting this up on a table or a tight DJ booth people may be prone to bumping into it and/or you may not have room to push it out.

I really like mine. It has a removal plate on the back which gives you the ability to slide in your laptop stand. So to answer your questions it doesn't come with one but you can add any shelf to your set up. I just bought a Mac book pro, so I'm ordering the Odyssey laptop stand today!

Good question. We had ours installed in a single, but we purchased the Rev-a-shelf first then gave it to our cabinet maker and told him to build a cabinet to fit the shelf instead of the other way around.If you were to put it in a double, my question would be where do you mount the other side of the shelf? There would have to be some type of wall there to bolt or screw the other rails to.Hope that helped.Doug

The shelf is in a fixed location. I think it is designed like this, to make the unit more sturdy.

I use it as a shelf in my room. From what I understand, you are putting it in a smaller space in your pantry? All I can tell you is that it seems quite durable - I've had it for about a year now. It has a printer sitting on top with a lot of my supplements. iHome, Ps4, Xbox, 2 gallons of water, cleaning supplies, and a subwoofer on the bottom. If you build it correctly and don't over "screw" the screws, it should last you a while, regardless of what you put on it. Ask me anything else if I really overshot your question and went on a tangent!

No, I wouldn't assemble without the shelf, for all the reasons that you noted. Hope thus was helpful! P.S. Great piece of furniture!

I didn't secure mixer to shelf. The weight of the mixer holds it in place.The shelf is always horizontal so the mixer doesnt slide. It is also nice to move it an inch or so for cleaning.

I bought the turntable on the recommendation of a friend who is a professional dj... he told me that for casual listening, the included stylus was fine. If you are still interested in upgrading, I can ask him if you like.

I bought this. You will have to buy the tripod separately. The same I company sells a perfect tripod type support for this. It's more like a speaker stand. They are both great pieces of gear.

Not really. The inside handle bars are fixed and create and L-shape that could accommodate some kind of shelf, but you would have to improvise. The MP3 plugin plays well and there is also a water bottle holder. One could put an iPad over the display, but then the display gets obscured.

It shouldn't be.I is a hidden shelf.And a shitty one at that.Unless you like obvious hiding spots.Its way bulky

I use mine for LP's and have two vertical and side by side with my turntable on top. I'm almost postive that they come with hardware to stack them and fasten them together. If not they are meant to stack and it wouldn't take much creativity to fasten them together securely.

No problem whatsoever. The turntable and its cover were secured by a hard foam to protect all corners. I had it unpacked and in use right away.

Need to buy your own stand but they arent too expensive. I bought one for about $25. Its good quality too

Some are saying yes, others are saying no. Why no? If it is placed horizontally would the shelves still stay in place? THanks in advance. I am considering ordering two, one for an upright vertical bookshelf as pictured and another to go as a long bookshelf/console table in the same room.

Thank you all for the response, I am seriously considering getting a couple of these for my mobile DJ setup. Your help is greatly appreciated!

I bought this item, but I already had a stand. As far as I know, without a stand, it won't stay upright.
