This was needed for a 22" Flat Panel TV located on a dresser that was only 13" wide and a Directv receiver was placed on the underneath area of the stand. WOIKED GREAT
Had to go to (3) three stores in the area to find this Item. Even Staples Employees and Management not up to speed on products they sell. Deer in the Headlight Look - To it may be by the Computer Monitors if we have at all! Really have we progressed where the younger generation has no idea what a "Computer Monitor Stand" is? All Kidding aside Staples was the only store to carry one.
I had purchased the Allsop Metal Art Monitor Stand as an alternate riser for my HDTV (Samsung UN46D6500 LED-LCD) instead of purchasing a dedicated TV riser and it was definitely worth it! Not only is the monitor stand capable of supporting the weight of my HDTV but the width of it fits the base/stand of my HDTV perfectly. I've had it probably a little over a month now as of this writing and so far no issues with the stand whatsoever! The only gripe I have is that it "opens" up on the front which sometimes wobbles when I'm changing the viewing angle of the TV because of the added pressure towards the front end but not enough to make my HDTV fall of the stand. Overall if you're looking for a high quality monitor/HDTV stand/riser at an affordable price then I highly would consider this as an option!
It raises the screen to eye level for less eye and neck strain without taking over a huge part of your desk. I keep my monitor speakers staple removers letter opener and small post-its on top and still have room for my rolodex two large post-it dispensers and frequently used reference sheets underneath!
