AVF ES250B-T Wall Mounted AV Component Shelving System with 2 Adjustable Tempered Glass Shelves -Black

my wife and i were in the market for a shelving system after moving into our new place. it was cheap in price, but not in quality. it is made of solid metal, the bracket that screws into the wall that is. the glass shelves,(im not sure if theyre glass, but theyre sturdy none the less) are nice and big and have a nice shine to them. they look real elegant.you can adjust the spacing in between the the shelves which is a huge plus. it comes with the required screw to mount it to the wall. it may not be the absolute best wall mount on the market, but you cannot beat the price.if all you need is a simple, elegant, strong and sturdy wall mount, and dont need anything fancy or huge. this is 100% the wallmount your should purchase.

This unit is very sturdy if you use common sense when mounting it. Let's face it, you can't possibly think that drywall anchors will hold ANY shelving unit loaded with equipment(even if they give you the anchors with the shelf)! Seems like the biggest problem people,myself included, have is that they want to mount this unit centered below their TV and wall mounts for TV's commonly only hit 2 studs, so you can either try using drywall anchors to mount it in the center, or mount it off center so you can hit a stud. Neither of those sounded good to me so after tons of searching on Amazon, I was able to find a TV wall mount that was wide enough to hit 3 studs (GENIUS!) and thus have a stud directly centered below the TV. Try the VideoSecu Ultra Slim TV Wall Mount Fits most 37" to 63" LED LCD Plasma Flat Panel TV's, it is holding a Toshiba 55" LCD tight to the wall(1-1/4") and is also plenty strong enough as well as being reasonably priced. The shelving unit (screwed directly into the stud) is SUPER STRONG-you will break the glass shelf before you can pull it off the wall. Long and short of it, this unit is affofdable, really stylish, shelves are perfectly sized, and extruded aluminum wall mount is strong but it MUST BE MOUNTED TO A STUD. Very satisfied-was better than I expected (not made in China).

This shelf system is easy to install and holds my dvr cable box and dvd player just fine. The wall bracket is very sturdy, however the "clamps" that hold the glass shelves have a little flex in them. I don't think I would put anything very heavy on them. The glass shelves are only held in the clamps by friction and it would be easy to bump a shelf and have it all come crashing down. If you have children or animals, don't mount this low on the wall. I have this mounted up high just under my flat screen, so no worries there.Also, the hidden cable run is very small and does not hold the cables well. My dvd player uses component video and the cable run does't even come close to holding that just by itself, not even counting the other power cords, video cable, and HDMI cables. In my opinion, the hidden cable run is pretty much useless. Which makes for a nice looking shelf, but kind of an ugly install with cords running up and down the wall.The only thing that gives me pause is the flex or bounce in the shelves themselves because of the clamp that holds them to the wall bracket. It works, but I wonder about the longevity and overall sturdiness of this shelf system. For the price, it gets the job done.

I for one am all about aesthetic appeal when it comes to our television setup in each of our rooms in our homes. I am a wire hider, I would rather climb up in a 130F attic and hide wires than see them any day. We purchased this product for my son's setup in his room, we mounted it right next to his 47" TV and he keeps his Playstation and XBox on each shelf, the wires are nearly completely hidden as they're so close to the TV that they simply are running directly behind and plugged in (excess is wound up and zip tied behind the TV). We chose to mount the shelf to the side of the Television because he had a shelf below with his stereo, etc, and the aesthetic appearance worked better off to the side. It would look amazing with one set on each side, but he has no need for two sets. The product was very easily assembled, and the glass and finish gives it a very contemporary look. I would recommend this product all day long.Hope that helps you with your purchasing decision.Thanks for reading!
