Really? 5 lbs.? What's it made of? Is it Is it solid enough for a 60" TV?

It's metal and seems sturdy - I used it to have a 32 inch TV which has worked very well. I would think that if you anchored it into the wall securely it would hold a larger TV. I'm happy with my purchase of this item but as I said I used it for a lighter, smaller TV. Hope this helps!

I had a Panasonic 50" TV on it for about 6 months with no issue. TC-P50ST30 weighs about 70lbs.

You have not mentioned the weight of your TV. But I am sure it can hold 6-8 pounds.

I cannot tell you an exact weight, but I have an older 26" picture tube tv on it. It has been there for 4 years with no problem.

It fits my 60 inch with no prob... it will definitely hold your 55inch tv.It is Real wood. Not particle board. You need two people to haul it inside the house after it arrives. You need to assemble it and it is very heavy and sturdy, so you need some help to hold the pieces together. Took us 4 hours and there were 3u of us putting it together. It will definitely last more than 5 years

The instruction sheet says the top is rated to hold 60 pounds. 55 is pushing it but probably okay. The stand seems sturdy but it's just not that big, and it's just particle board. A good piece of hardwood furniture is going to do better than knockdown items like this, and if you spend big bucks on a TV, don't skimp on the support. As for the width, really the issue would be the base -- and the risk of bumping into your TV if it sticks past the edge of the stand. It's all common sense, really. HTH.

I'm not sure of it's weight, but my TV is a 54", its base is 17.5"X15" and it works well on the 32"X15" platform.

We bought this for our camper. We had a straight post mount coming off of our counter. I connected that bracket to the existing mount. Our tv is a 32 inch plasma, not sure of the exact weight. It seems very sturdy heavy metal construction. It does a great job.

LOL good question... Check with the manufactuer for EXACT WEIGHT... BUT to be helpful, I just went and stood on top of it (CAREFULLY) and it withheld me.... I am a tall 6'3, 250 lbs!!! Plus we have the 40" tv and about 30-35 lbs of STUFF inside of it.... So i'd say ABOUT 300-325 LBS!!!!

I had a 36" on it and it was fine..Not sure about a 40-50 lb TV as it is just plastic and I had to get creative to get my cable box to fit under (box too big). I would personally look for a more solid one

It is a nice piece of furniture. 65' TV will fit, but just barely. The furniture will be able to handle the weight.

I feel it is strong enough. I have a 55", 50 lb. TV on mine, so I can't say for sure, but the stand is very sturdy.

I'm satisfied with this product.I don't know of weight limit but I think it is sturdy.FYI,I put 60" TV on it.

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.

It is design to hold up to 135#, I just used it for my 70", 110# TV, and it feels solid. The important thing is to balance the TV (space evenly) on the horizontal mount. Look up the weight of the TV in your TV specs

My TV weighs around 60 lbs and it holds it with no problem I think it could hold at least 20 more

I'm not 100% sure but it's sturdy as heck!! It's like construction that you'd find in a building...like a steel beam or something. I would definitely recommend it for anyone that has up to 55", which is what I use it for. Come to think of it....if you have a pretty modern tv, they are getting lighter everyday. In my opinion it may just hold it since they have one that supports 65" You just need to make sure the holes in the back can match up to the mount.
