1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY, February 3, 2008

This review is from: Penn Plax Aquarium Tank Stand 10 Gallon (Misc.)

I would have given this tank a zero star rating if it were available. I owned this stand and it's cheap construction sagged in the middle. The sag caused my tank to rupture on the bottom rear seam while i was gone for the day. I had to buy a new tank, almost lost hundreds of dollars of fish and plants and also got electrocuted. Unless you want a flood in your house don't buy this stand.

1.0 out of 5 stars Price Reflects Value; Very Poor/Weak Design & Instructions, December 22, 2010

This review is from: Penn Plax Aquarium Tank Stand 10 Gallon (Misc.)

I don't really hate this product, but it doesn't deserve more than one star and it is Amazon's choice to make one star mean "I hate it!" It has given me $20 worth of amusement so far (though at my own expense).

Price usually reflects the value. I didn't expect much for $20 from PETCO and was not disappointed. The steel is soft steel in the legs. Plastic, tape, plus soft and hardened steel all go into the construction. Plastic tape will eventually dry out but may only be employed to hold things in place while you construct it. The first problem was that one of the loops into which a shelf was to be inserted was out-of-round. (I really miss the quality control that U.S. manufacturers used to use. The Chinese manufacturer of this knock-off and knock-down used none to little - but that is what we get for cheaper prices and goods.) It was easily re-rounded with a pair of pliers as this is extremely soft material. U.S. distributors (PETCO and PENN PLAX)deserve the ire of customers for not demanding more quality in what they sell, but that is another story.

The instructions were in graphics with no text except for the warnings about placement and moving the tank (appreciated). The leg caps/floor guards are of very light plastic. To keep from marring the finish and frame of the tank, you are instructed to use a block of wood between the hammer and frame. Please be advised that if you only use ONE block of wood, you may be disappointed. A SECOND block of wood or good piece of steel should be used under the leg end when you hammer the shelf onto the legs. Also you might be better served to remove the plastic caps (if you want them to serve a useful purpose after assembly.) I learned the hard way (LOL) and followed the included instructions and promptly cut a plug out of our vinyl flooring when the steel tube cut through the cheap plastic guard/cap and into the vinyl flooring! Lucy (Lucille Ball) could not have done better! Fortunately I was able to repair the flooring (Please, don't tell my wife). LOL Time will tell what the weight of the tank on the stand will do to the floor.

Here is what I did to remedy the guard cap/leg problem: I discovered that the legs were smaller than a U.S. penny and so inserted one into each cap snugly between the steel-tube-leg (cookie-cutter) and cap. Maybe Honest Abe's image will be all that remains when I move the stand and tanks the first time. Using the penny is what you might call Yankee (and proud of it) ingenuity! It is also a bit of poetic justice. Good luck.

1.0 out of 5 stars UNSTABLE Tank Stand, October 26, 2009

This stand looks like a great deal, BUT before I even got water in the tank, it was wobbly. There is not enough support to keep this stand from wanting to twist and collapse. Further research confirmed that the lack of stability is why these stands are not available in stores anymore. I wouldn't even recommend it for any other use.
