This TV Stand was exactly what I was looking for in its price range. It holds our 32" LCD TV on top (approx 28 lbs) with our DVD/VCR combo below with ample room on all sides of it.

This literally took me 7 minutes to put together and I would say it took longer to open the box and take out all the parts than it did to assemble it. Even with the quick and easy assembly, this appears to be solid and sturdy and I am not concerned about the weight of the TV being an issue at all. The fact that this is a swivel stand is just an added bonus for us, as we didn't need it but it could come in handy should we decide to use this in another room.

I needed a stand to place on my dresser to elevate my 37" LCD (30 lbs). Didn't care about swivel stand and was apprehensive it would swivel too freely and contribute to the TV toppling.

What attracted me the most to this stand was its nice appearance and more important it's tremendous 9.5 inch elevation ... most stands are around 4-5".

After spending less than 5 minutes setting it up I developed some positive first impressions and one negative.

Positive: 1. It is very simple in design and construction. Two particle board shelves, with the swivel assembly firmly mounted to the bottom.

2. The swivel carousel is large in diameter with absolutely no suggestion that the attached shelf (base) would tip left or right.

3. The shelves appear very strong, nice wood grain veneer, and assembly holes very cleanly drilled.

4. When assembled, the unit is tight with zero sway. It's rated to hold 60 lbs., and I have no doubt that it will easily manage my 30 lb. TV.

5. The swivel assembly is tight. It will easily swivel at the touch but will not do a high-speed 360 when the cat pushes it.

6. The wide open area between the two shelves is very welcome as I was wasting valuable dresser real estate. My guess is that two components of normal width can be stacked in this area, say 2 out of 3 of a VCR, DVD, Cable Set Top Box or DVR. Only consideration is the 23.6 inch width less the supporting poles at the corners.

Negative: The plastic construction of the supporting poles and especially the lightweight plastic tightening "screws" at the ends of the poles do not inspire confidence, although they are tight and the unit does not sway, as mentioned.

One reviewer indicated that 3 of his 8 "screws" were broken and he knew the package had been previously opened. I can easily believe this is exactly what happened. I'd bet the farm that the previous owner over tightened them. That's a guarantee for disaster given the flimsy character of these "screws". With the money they're making on this item, they could have and should have supplied metal supports and "screws" (end caps).

In all, this is a nicely designed very functional enhancement to any TV setup where the TV is on an elevated surface as a dresser or larger TV stand.

My rating would have been 5-star were it not for the plastic components.

Given what's available to meet the need fulfilled by this unit, I recommend it to you. Please be careful with the assembly and do not over-tighten the plastic "screws".

Decent price; works OK for me. Fairly durable and easy to put together. Top tier is pressed fibre board with black laminate. Holds the weight of the TV without bending. Seems OK for what I needed and the price I wanted to pay.

I've been looking for this for years and finally made one before it gave up the ghost! Assembly took less time than unpacking the box. Extremely sturdy, nice looking and well built. I use it with a 26" Flat Screen TV with satellite box on bottom. Now with the easy twist of the stand it is viewable from anywhere in the room!

The 2 tier TV swivel stand exceeded my expectations. The brushed chrome supports give the stand a classy look, and the swivel motion works great! I was especially pleased that I could place the cable box in the lower shelf under the tv. All in all, this product is awesome!

i really like it. it serves its purpose.highly recommended for those who want to make their tv viewing a little higher.

I had looked & looked for just this item to be placed on the chest of drawers in my guest room. I wanted it to be sturdy & it had to rotate. This one is perfect with the TV high enough you aren't scooting down to try to watch while in bed. I recommend it highly.

This shelf looks very good and puting it together is a breeze. The VCR and XBOX sit under the TV very easily.

The TV stand is exactly what we expected. We have our 42" TV sitting on it and it looks really great. We looked for a long time trying to find something to sit on our armoir for our tv. Now we have the perfect tier. We highly recommend.

This was easy to put together and works good. I have a 32" Flat screen and my cable stitting on it. I bought it for the rotation feature witch works really good.
