This audio rack is very well made for the price and the assembly is extremely simple; assembly requires no tools at all!When you open up the initial box, you are greeted with individually boxed components for the shelf, everything is packed extremely well. My box did sustain some damage in shipping but the rack was fine. This rack is assembled starting from the top shelf and working your way down, the assembly is tool free, anyone can do it. You use threaded rod (with pre-defined threading stops) in between each shelving section to connect up the 4 pipes that make up each corner. Everything just screws together hand tight and you are finished. The metal carpet spikes are adjustable independently of each other to help level out the unit. In between each rod section and shelving you install a small rubber washer to help alleviate any vibrations in the unit. I purchased the Espresso finished unit and it has a nice faux wood grain finish. The entire unit is high quality, the wood feels like MDF with a thin fake veneer.I purchased this audio rack on the hopes that it would be modular and it was exactly as I hoped for. I left off the top shelf and this gave me a unitl that was approximately 24" tall. If you are looking for a nice sturdy rack that is not glass, this just might be the rack for you. I'm very happy with this purchase.I did take some measurements after assembly, this is how the unit stacks up:Assembled height from solid floor: 32"Total width: 24"Total depth (at deepest point): 18 1/8"Total depth (at start of bow): 15"Max usable width between support rods: 19 1/4"Max usable depth to be flush with support rods: 15"Max usable height of two smaller shelves: 7 1/4"Max usable height of one larger shelf: 8 3/4"Clearance between underside of bottom shelf and hard floor: 5 7/8"Read more

Another contestant in the budget rack wars. This unit slides in about $20 cheaper then it's most obvious competitor, The Sanus AFA but, how does it stack up?For $100 I am not complaining about the base unit. I also ordered the taller 10" posts and the extra shelf kit because I had a specific need and wanted to achieve a specific result, which I was able to do for an extra $80. Shipping was the usual two-day prime fare and the unit and additional pieces arrived unscathed. Like the Sanus, these are versatile and expandable if you order more than one or extra pieces. I've ordered three Sanus racks in the last two years and assembled them in various configurations. You can do the same with this rack also.First let me state this unit DOES NOT have various types of feet as someone stated in the Q/A section. The only option Pangea offers is carpet spikes which does absolutely no good for hardwood or linoleum. I came up with a solution that will cost about $5 and a little extra if you want the feet to match instead of paying $29 for metal discs.Because of the carpet spike situation and my refusal to pay $30 for metal discs, I opted for a different route. I went to my local big box home improvement center and picked up a few 5/8" closet rod holders. The metal tubes will easily fit into this creating a nice, safe flat surface that won't ruin a hardwood floor with spikes. All told, I spent like $8 including the matching espresso Krylon paint.The overall quality of the Pangea is nice with good fit and finish. Once unpacked, it assembles in about 15 minutes and that is if you are moving slowly. It looks good and supports a good deal of gear. It will not support heavier gear. Anything over 44lbs will exceed the weight limit. The other thing it lacks is a method for good organized cable routing.Where the Sanus outshines this rack is in that it will support more weight and has cable routing built-in to the shelf via a hole on the back of each shelf. I like them both! If your gear is not going to exceed the shelf weight limit, I would get this. If you have heavier gear look at the Sanus, it supports quite a bit more.Read more

Update: Below I complained that a part was missing that kept me from finishing the cabinet and that I didn't see a way to contact the seller. Well, I did find a way to contact the seller, so keep looking, there is a way, and they told me they would send me the piece. Good on them. But, I didn't wait and I ordered the 8m rod through Amazon which, of course, I received quickly.Now I can review the cabinet:I found the packaging of this cabinet done well, and the build process very easy, with easy to follow instructions. The cabinet itself is stunning, and fits perfecting in the place I had in mind. I am very pleased. So pleased that once the piece comes, as promised, I'll up my 4 stars to a 5 star rating. We'll see...Old Review:You know what's it like... you go through the entire set up, and the one item that you didn't do an exact count on, because all the others were right, and they looked righted, were missing that one last piece. Just a piece that means you don't have that forth leg, but that's cool. Wrong. And, how do you contact the seller to get this resolved? I'm not disassembling this and packaging this back up, at least not in a way they're going to appreciate. Well, maybe I am.Read more

Since this is an inexpensive rack, I didn't have high expectations. The product is on par with what it costs. This rack would be fine if I didn't have a turntable sitting on it but, for what I am looking for, it moves around a lot. I even bought the overpriced isolation feet for it and it still transmits quite a bit of acoustical resonance. I am not returning it because, it is not really worth my time and effort. I made a few modifications to my turntable base by adding isolation blocks. Since I am the only one in the room when listening to my record collection, I plan to live with this rack. I'm not a complainer and rarely rate things this low but, it really should be noted (by the seller) that this rack is best suited for digital gear. The finish is nice and it actually looks nice. If it was more stable, it would be a good affordable piece at a good price.

Black

A black finish on your tv stand is one of the best options for a tv stand. Black establishes an eye-catching relationship between the rest of the living room decor and your tv stand. It also makes the furniture complement each other. The black finish will most likely blend in with the rest of your decor and walls unless you choose a different option. The tv stand itself won’t stand out, but you can use elements around it that do. For example, white flower vases are a great bet. The exact role can be taken on by the area rug or the lighting in the room. Each black tv finish stand has its own set of properties, which allow it to stand out in various ways and to interact with the surrounding space in its path. However, the black finish will easily show dust hence making you clean more. This finish does not take scratches and dents well, therefore expensive to maintain.

Engineered Wood

An engineered wood tv stand is a tv stand that is made of a wood composite material, that is, material that is created by the fusing of strands, fibers, veneers, or thin wood boards that are bound together with adhesives. An engineered wood tv stand is a durable, long-lasting and neat furniture piece that will enhance the beauty of your home. Engineered wood tv stands are relatively inexpensive when compared to other tv stands (especially those made of solid wood), making an engineered wood tv stand an affordable option for your home décor needs. As engineered wood is crafted with a variety of materials, there is a large selection of styles and designs of tv stands that you can select. This makes it easy to pair with your existing home décor pieces or to create a brand-new style using an engineered wood tv stand.

Medium Density Fiberboard

Medium density fiberboard, or MDF, is a manufactured wood product that is made of broken-down hardwood or softwood fibers and a resin adhesive. A tv stand made of medium density fiberboard is very strong and durable. The surface of a medium density fiberboard tv stand is very smooth and conducive to painting; making MDF tv stands a great choice for people who enjoy DIY or home renovation projects. Medium density fiberboard tv stands can be quite heavy (and rival the weight of solid wood tv stands!), so it’s best to get two or more people to move and position it. The natural color of MDF tv stands is a brown/red color, but you can always paint or stain the surface to suit your style tastes and preferences. A medium density fiberboard tv stand will be stronger and more dense than particle board, and tends to be less expensive too. Overall, an MDF tv stand would make a great choice for your home living space.

Metal

Wondering which best tv material for your tv stands? Worry no more. For a tv stand that is contemporary and modern, metal is the way to go. Metal produces rudimentary designs that are attractive and elegant. The tv stand made from this material is sturdy and will serve you for decades. Metal is easy to maintain. Metal can easily be curved into different shapes that make it easy to work with. Depending on your choice, metal, when furnished with paint, your tv stand will be attractive. This material, when used on tv stand it is shinny, and the edges can be seen. Metal being ductile makes tv stands look fantastic. Metals stands can also be blended with wood to make final tv products. Even though metal can rust, special alloys are applied to reduce or evade rust. Metal materials are readily available and easy to work with.

Steel

A tv stand made of steel is sleek, modern, and extremely durable. Steel is an incredibly strong and long-lasting material that is often used in furniture making and appliances because of the unmatched strength and resilience of the material. A steel tv stand is a perfect choice to enhance a modern-contemporary or industrial home décor motif; oftentimes, steel tv stands have unique, distinctive lines that lend well to a modern aesthetic. A steel tv stand may not be the best choice for homes with small children, as sharp corners or edges may pose a danger; in addition, a steel tv stand may show fingerprints or dirt easily; however, you should be able to clean it easily using a microfiber cloth. A steel tv stand is the perfect way to enhance the modern, sleek, and sophisticated look and feel of your home living space.

Wood

Wood tv stands are one of the most popular types of tv stands available on the market-and for good reason! Wood is a versatile, beautiful, and natural way to enhance the aesthetic of your home living spaces. A wood tv stand can be different colors/tones or finishes, including painted, stained, or airbrushed. Due to the extreme versatility of wood tv stands, they are able to complement nearly every home décor style, including traditional, modern, coastal, farmhouse, antique and mid-century modern. A wood tv stand would make a great choice for people who enjoy DIY projects; wood is very conducive to painting or staining, so you can easily change the look of a wood tv stand should your style preferences change. A wood tv stand would make a perfect addition to your home living spaces and will create a beautiful and relaxed ambience in your home.
