Sanus Systems AFA Accurate Furniture Audio Stand (Black) Reviews
When you combine two, you can use four smaller shelves and the top shelf. I have one of those oversized mattresses. Since I liked the basic design of the Sanus AFA stand, it dawned on me that I may be able to combine two of them to reach the desired height.
The stands were shipped in their retail boxes. LOL. Even with the double stack, the unit appears to be very strong and stable. It really didn't matter to me though since I placed them closest to the floor. You'll also have an extra top shelf in case the first gets scratched up, or you can use the extra top shelf as the base shelf. The total height of the bed frame, box-spring, and mattress is around 35". The total height of the two racks combined (5-Shelves) is about 42 1/4". In addition, it looked like I received one that was previous returned.
Two of the shelves has some scrapes, or something, on their bottoms. I'm happy to say that it worked. Basically, a tag was slapped on them and they were shipped out. One of the cylinders was slightly crushed, but useable. My tv weighs around 40 lbs., which is well under the 215 lb limit, and doesn't cause the unit to wobble.
It actually looks very decent for a budget stand. I originally thought that the surface of the unit was going to be slightly rough, but it is actually smooth and has a nice semi-gloss lacquer-like appearance. Because of this, I was having a terrible time trying to find a decent looking rack that could hold my 46" flat screen that was high enough to see while laying in bed. The other shelves are weighted with a center channel speaker and a couple of receivers. In any event, this is a very nice unit and I would recommend it to anybody that needs a good quality rack at a great price.
I guess if I laid on my back I could see the scratches. I spent quite some time trying to find an audio/TV rack for my bedroom.
Each shelf has a cable management holes in it, except for the very top one. Overall this is a great product. The top is a great place for a large turntable (the whole reason I bought the system) and the MDF shelves provide some decent sound dampening. The extra height between shelves allows all your components to breathe, which especially important with large receivers/amps. The Sanus AFA system is great. It was a breeze to put together, it's expandable, and it looks amazing in my office.
Holds two receivers, two dvd players, a cable box and two sets of speaker switchers. Easy to assemble.
This stand is simply amazing. It has enough room to hold my onkyo reciever, my cable box, my 360, ps3, wii, and hd player. It took about 10 mins to put together. It is a very nice color and matched the lcd and components beautifully. So spacious and sturdy, you can not go wrong with this unit.
For the asking hard it would be extremely difficult to do better than this. I had been on the look out for a stand for the AV gear in my workout room when I ran across this one. I have 80 lbs on it now and it feels strong enough that I could put another 80 lbs on there.
although I suppose if you had massive amplifiers, etc, that weighed a ton then you might need to invest in something a little heavier built just to be on the safe side. The stand is a good height for putting a modest sized LCD TV on top and still having more than enough room for all of your components below. The three large "bays" can take just about any sized component you can dish out.
I pulled the trigger after a price drop on the item from Amazon. In any event this stand looks really good, the metal tubes have a textured satin finish, my wife is really picky about furniture and she commented on how good it looked. The stand is a snap to assemble (took about 5 minutes) and is very solid.
I have a hard time believing the person who claims it fell apart with 50 lbs on it.
