We have a 60" Sharp AQUOS LCD (It's a monster of a flat screen, really heavy -_- ) , so weight was a huge concern in finding a mount for it (needed a new stand, also wanted to save floor space and avoid wall mounting - we rent and wasn't too sure if the landlord would have an issue with drilling holes to mount this gigantor of a TV in his wall). This stand is PERFECT!  Holds without any balance issues and it was easy to assemble.  Doesn't clash with rest of the furniture because it actually looks like it's part of the TV (which was my significant other's concern). Very Satisfied with this purchase.
