Has anyone used this to set their cable box or DVD player on a shelf? I am looking for something to set next to TV to hold those, not so much DVDS.

The shelves wouldn't be deep enough for my DVD player or my cable box. The shelves are the depth of a DVD standing up.

No. I wouldn't think the width of the shelves would be great enough to set an entire DVD/Blueray player on. The height might be a little awkward as well, depending on the size of the piece of the furniture you currently have your TV on. Whatever you do, be sure to measure the width of your player against the width of the shelving in the DVD cabinet. Not too helpful I know, lol. I personally don't see it working for what you are looking for.

Yes. There are two adjustable shelves of each side (total of 6 places to put your devices or movies). In the middle there is room to a little bit of storage and room for power strips and cables, etc.Just on one side I have the following devices: Xbox, DVD player, Cable box, VCR, 400 Disc DVD changer.That leaves the entire right side for movies, etc.Best entertainment system that I have seen. If sold assembled in the furniture store, I would sell for 4 times as much.

Closed, it would likely work fine for a shelf. Open, it wouldn't hold much weight and it doesn't open flat with the cable off, it looks nice, it's not a heavy duty box.

The TV is pretty much ready to use on of the box. Although I would recommend something to protect your investment like a surge protector or UPS. If you don't already have an HDMI cable and your cable box/ DVD player has an HDMI output, then you can get it here for under $20. I did, and it works great. If your cable box is not HDTV, then you can buy an antenna to pick up over-the-air HDTV, if it's available in your area...old bunny ears antenna may work. Good luck!

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.

I think a small one would be fine but you should anchor the tv to the shelf and the shelf to the wall. The shelf is VERY sturdy but since it's so tall, I'd worry about a child pulling it over with a tv on top. No kids? I'd say it shouldn't be much of a worry.

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.

Yes, the shelf can hold a cable box. It's very sturdy. I believe you can buy an additional shelf from the company so you can add a dvd player or similar also. Well made polling cart. Very heavy. Good construction.

first of all, this is the ONLY product I could find that a seperate shelf is NOT needed for the cable box. It is worth every penny. MIne is set for minimum on the bottom (about 2-3 inches) and max on top (about 4-5 inches) My 32 inch TV fits great, looks great, is solidly installed. Great product and I'm sure that it would fit your needs

Works better on a solid shelf. I just put heavy cardboard on the shelf and it works fine...Great product !!!

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.

I found a stand from Office Express (OFC Express TV Stand) that has worked out well. I am able to have the cable box and DVD player underneath and the sound bar fits in front of the TV also. Matched dresser and fit nicely on top. Very satisfied.

You can set it as your needs dictate as it is adjustable. I have six shelves with ten DVDs per shelf plus one short shelf for my DVD cleaner.

We purchased the swivel base to place our 42" flat screen TV on (which had a fairly large base) and it worked just fine. We've also used it for our 32" flat screen and that was OK, too. I'm not sure what you mean when you ask if you can put "the satellite box in it." It's a flat stand that swivels and sits on a flat surface (like a table, dresser, bookcase, etc). There are no shelves or compartments to 'put' anything into.

I have it in my shelf. The remote really doesn't work well without a direct beam to the IR sensor. So mounting it to the back of the TV would probably be a really bad idea. It's small enough to fit most anywhere on an entertainment center though, so it shouldn't be a problem finding space.
