I have read that the "stand" is very flimsy and wobbles quite a bit. Has this been a problem for anyone? Thanks for any comments!

it was very wobbly for me but I fixed it by taking a drill to it and making it really tight. Now it doesn't wobble at all.

it's sturdy for a 50 in you just have to screw it in the right way mine swings both ways just fine and I have a 2 year old that got ahold of it a few times and it didn't budge,and honestly you don't move it that much anyway it's a nice tv and a awesome price but shop around there's other brands for around the same price now

It's pretty sturdy if you install it properly. Granted, I'm not twisting and turning mine constantly but I'm not worried it's going to fall over.

You have a unit that is less in weight than I am using. I have an old 32" standard TV--almost takes two to lift it. The unit has been on the stand for over one year. There is no evidence of weakening or sag in the stand. I would highly recommend this to you. It is strong, easily assembled, and has the appearance of a fine piece of furniture.

It's a great stand. But, neither of this situations are ideal unless you have enough clearing for the legs to move to quickly re-situate the stand. you can readjust it but it takes practice to always get it in the right position each time you want to use it again.

This stand is very sturdy and the screws have knobs that are not too tiny. I returned it only because for me it took longer to set up than the ones with levers. But the stand is well-built. The screws are not tiny and have nice handles so it might not be worse than some stands with very tight levers. Good luck!

I find the stand to be very stable. Mine's on a computer desk which is located in an area where the desk gets bounced rather often & the shake of the monitor is very minimal. This stand wouldn't topple over. I find it stable even when tilt to adjust for viewing.

Had it not been for your question, I would have never known that it wobbled, and I've had mine for over a year. I guess all I can say is as long as you followed the directions and use logical and appropriate weight distribution methods, the wobble should not be a concern.

I have not used it in that position, but it stays put in the normal position. The stand is great!

Thanks for ur responses. I just purchased the 745 for now, will get the stand later. I love the ability to take off and back on in a snap!! I have negative space to keep anything bigger than this. Thanks again, God bless, Steve.

I have not tried the stand yet. I typically hold it in my hand or lay it on the table/desk.

I agree with all that responded. My stand has been great (50' TV) do know they can cause problems though. Be sure to use the proper screws, do not over tighten, you should be fine. AND I agree Sceptre customer service is fantastic! A+++ from personal experience.

I found that my stand was wobbly because the screw holes were a bit too small so the screws initially weren't going all the way in to secure the stand. So I put (basically forced) the screws all the way into the TV itself 1st to ensure the holes were wide enough then put them through the stand and it went on with no problem and is completely solid and secure.

Which Stand did you end up buying? I am looking for decent one that is compatible with this kit. I would greatly appreciate your input.

Don,I'VE used this stand to hold 8foot long, 6X6 pressure treated pieces, using a Dewalt Sawzall. It wobbles, but the table vise hold the material. My vexation with the piece is that it was annoying to assemble, it wants to flop out and unfold when you carry it. And, it is not nearly as stable as the earlier models. It is a cheap price for a below average piece.Dave

It does wobble. There is a slight crown to the back surface. I notice it when I type on it when it is lying on my desk. The one that I had on my 4 did not wobble. It is still worth the purchase!

I have my 12 in Miter Saw on the stand and find it remarkably stable. No wobble, stands with no side to side motion (or otherwise) at all. If persists when weight is added, would definitely return, Amazon's policy is one of the best and they want you to be satisfied.
