Very good quality build but little heavy
This is my second OmniMount purchase after a TV wallmout. I love the quality of the products from OmniMount and this component shelf is very strong and it right now holds my DVR, DVD player and I also placed a laptop on the DVD player. The only thing I worry about is if the stud can hold the shelf and it's contents. Good: - Installation was pretty easy and straightforward using the hardware included with the product. You should have a better stud-finder and a stronger drill. - Very strong and sturdy Not so good: - Protrudes far away from the wall. If you have installed it above 4 ft, you have to watch when walking near it or bending down under the shelf to pick up something from the floor. Though it took a while to get used to this protruding from the wall, now I am alright. - I would have loved to have a shorter (at least by 3 inches) and fixed arm. Currently it can swing, for which I don't see any use.
wall mount for AV equipment
I am extremely happy with my purchase, it looks very elegant with the metal and glass mix. I highly recommend this hardware for anyone mounting TV/Audio equipment on the wall. Installation instructions were very simple to follow.
Pretty awesome
This thing did exactly what I wanted it to. Hold my receiver right under the tv. very sturdy and be sure to run the bolts in a stud. Great product and really makes my receiver look like its floating. Simple design, thick glass, very strong.
Great price for a good shelf
Bought two of these for the price of one at the local electronics store. One of them came completely smashed to oblivion. Amazon quickly replaced it. Overall I really like these shelves. I have two of them mounted one above the other. The mounting screws are long and ridiculously tough to put in with really soft heads. The shelves seem solid enough. One is the perfect size for my blu ray player the other holds my xbox 360 and its power box and my wii. The plastic covers are really flimsy but you can sort of hide wires in them. I think the dimensions are wrong in the listing, they are actually 18" wide 16" deep. Awesome shelf.
Looks Good
This shelf looks great mounted on the wall. It allows the unit to swing side to side if you need it. It also is very sturdy and can hold the entertainment equipment that it needs to. The plastic cover that covers the mount is a little cheesy, but overall looks great.
