TechCraft MD65 58-Inch Wide Flat Panel TV Stand - Black Review

The first thing you should know is that the weight spec on Amazon is WRONG. Amazon says that the shelf holds up to 260 lbs, but the label on the stand says that the top shelf can support only 130 lbs. With my 115 pound plasma TV, I didn't have much to spare. The two lower shelves are rated at 80 lbs each.

This shelf is a perfect fit for my 58 inch plasma TV, but I'm glad the TV stand wasn't any bigger. I had about a half inch of extra space. The depth on this stand is just short of 16 inches and the stand was over 15. If you have one of the pretty new TVs with shiny black bezel, this stand compliments beautifully. With the smoked glass, most of the detail of the stand is pretty well lost in even a semi-darkened room. That's the way it is with black, and is a good thing unless you're trying to show off the stand instead of the TV. The smoked glass is gorgeous, and heavy. If you want classy modern, this is it.

The printed assembly directions leave much to be desired (the stand is made in China). There are no text instructions, only drawings, so you have to pay close attention to the location of the holes, and that you get the right hardware in the right place. Holes are not pre-tapped, so you need to be careful to get screws started straight. I also found that several screws did not want to snug down, almost as if the hole was slightly oversized from the start. I was careful to not overtighten, so it was not an issue in the end, but I would warn to be gentle and careful. Don't use a power screwdriver to assemble! Use hand tools. Assembly took me a couple of hours, but this was because I wanted to get it right the first time. I did it by myself, but it wouldn't hurt to have a second person handy. If I had to build a second one immediately after the first it would have taken less than half that amount of time.

I wanted to put my center channel speaker on the upper of the two lower shelves. I knew it was going to be a close fit, and it was. Make sure you measure first or you may be in for a nasty surprise. Once you've got this unpacked there's no way you're going to pack it back up and send it back.

The glass for the two bottom shelves sits on little clear silicone rubber self adhesive pads that you press onto the stand frame. I found out the hard way that you don't put any lateral pressure on the glass as you're putting it in place because those pads will not stay put. I lost two in the carpet that way, and there are no extras. Set the glass into place from above; don't try to slide it in.

With no major assembly problems, and a little luck regarding the misinformation on weight handling capabilites, the end result for me was fine. The stand is exactly what we needed, and half the price of a lot of others. Pay attention to the size dimensions for your particular application and you'll like this stand.
