Review 5 of 7 Summary:
I have had no problems with any shelves like other reviewers have encountered. I have a 50 pound Denon AVR-5700 receiver on the second from top shelf, and a 36 pound Denon DVD player on the shelf below it. As I started to assemble the rack, I noticed that the screw holes in the side rail appeared to be evenly spaced. Imagine my surprise when I finished building the rack, only to find out that the back left set of shelf-points were all about an inch too low! This caused the shelve to balance on only three rails. Despite this unevenness, the top shelve remained perfectly level as noted with the built-in bubble level. I solved the problem in about 15 minutes by inverting that odd rail. The shelves rest on points that are screwed into L brackets. The screws have not stops which means a lot of screwing and unscrewing to match the points on every level in order to level the shelves. A little time consuming but no problem. The rack is beautiful, but I don't own any other piece of equipment or furniture that is that deep of a rosewood color. Would have preferred smooth titanium silver color siderails with black shelves. Overall 5 starts. Super sturdy. This is one of very few racks I could find with at least 13" of spacing between the bottom shelf and the next shelf--a requirement for my little monitor used to see the output of my recording devices... Strengths:
Beauty, functionality, capacity Weaknesses:
time-consuming construction, possible to put together crooked even with instructions Similar Products Used:
Middle Atlantic 19" audio rack
