As most other people commented, this is an excellent stand, very sturdy, very classy looking. Easy assembly, maybe 30-40 minutes. Before I bought this, I could not find any info on the clearance of the shelfs; I have a high end receiver (Sony STR-DG720) that is about 6.25 inches high, and it wasn't clear to me if that would fit in any of the shelves on this stand. So here is some info on shelf heights and clearance: on the bottom shelf, you can fit anything up to 5.25 inches in height, which is more than enough for DVD player, PS2, PS3, etc., but not a high end receiver. The shelf above has more clearance; units up to 6.5 inches high slide easily in from the front (or back), so my Sony Receiver fits in nicely. Since the glass above (which the TV stands on) is supported by "domed" metal beams, you actually have up to 8.5 inches of height, if you slide any unit onto that shelf from the sides. This is because the metal frames the whole unit stand on cover a little bit of the total height of the second shelf at the front and back, but not on the sides. I actually was almost able to put my center speaker bar on top of my tall receiver on this shelf when sliding it in from the side, there was just a tenth of an inch or so height missing to do that. But since there is so much horizontal space on both shelves anyway, that was not needed (one can easily fit three components side by side on each shelf). So in summary, there is more than enough height on the second shelf for tall electronic units like high end receivers. Hope this is helpful!

I shopped for a TV stand big enough to fit a 61" DLP TV and I went everywhere from Wal-mart to Best Buy to Ikea (online). This is the stand to get. This stand looks amazing in black metal and black tempered glass.
Wal-mart has some cheap particle board set for roughly the same price as this item. Best Buy has two classes of TV stands, those in their Magnolia section (which look great but run $1300+, I might as well get another TV) and their more moderately priced units run $299-$600. This unit still looks better than any of the stuff I saw in that section and it's bigger. There was a really basic particle board Ikea TV stand (Lack) for big TVs for $69, but they didn't deliver that model nor is there an Ikea store near where I live. And I'm glad there's not because I found this gem next.
This bad boy is 90+ pounds HEAVY and I really felt sorry for the sole UPS guy trying to carry it up the hill to my door but made me appreciate the fact that I didn't have to lug a unit in my car from a nearby store.
Ideally takes two people to setup for alignment purposes, but building it out is really easy and quick and the instructions are a snap. I'd probably build out the metal frame first, move it to where you want it, then put the glass on.
My only concern with the stand is that one of the parts came scratched and slightly dented. Luckily it was one of the support beams that runs underneath the glass and you can't see it anyway so I really didn't care because I was so satisfied with the unit after it was done, but this review probably would've been a different story if it had been one of the visible bars.
