Product Description
Portland flat panel TV stand with Integrated mount.
Pros- Fairly easy to set up, solid, inexpensive, looks great
Cons- Shows dust very fast
I have a 52″ LCD on the bracket, Center channel on top shelf, DVR and PS3 on middle, and Denon AVR-988 on the bottom. It holds it all like a champ. My friends keep asking where I got it and how much. Great purchase.

I got mine at COSTCO, not Amazon.
It looks great, matches the Black of my 50″ Panasonic Plasma great along with my Left and Right speakers and stands. The Swivel mount works good. Makes it a little easier when you need to get behind your HDTV. Not a huge need to swivel with a Plasma since the viewing angle is so wide.
It’s also quite a heavy stand!!! It holds a lot also. A Negative is because it’s Gloss Black, it does collect a lot of dust easily.
Hanging my Plasma on the wall wasn’t a option for me. I also didn’t want my Plasma sitting on top of a Glass Shelf. I’ve seen pictures of what happens when the shelf shatters even though the Rated weight rating was much higher then the HDTV and yet still shattered. I like the look of it up in the Air. The center support blocks the view of any wires, which for me is the power cable and a single HDMI cable. It also allowed me to place the center speaker right under the center of my HDTV with it up in the Air like it is. It is adjustable Up and down, not real easily, but possible. I have mine mounted up to the second to last top hole. This allowed me to fit the speaker under the HDTV, have it at a nice viewing height which if I had just used the Stand my Plasma came with and sat it on the top shelf would have been way to LOW to view. I’m about 7 feet from my screen and even when I’m fully reclined I can still see the screen fully without even my feet blocking the screen.
I’ve seen other HDTV stands with these type of center lift mounts but most are pretty flimsy feeling to me. Not fully part of the stand where you can remove it and not use it if you like. Not this one. It’s Part of the stand. It’s bolted on. It’s wide and strong. There’s no give, no sway, it’s solid. There’s a bolt kit, with lots of different bolts to fit just about any HDTV, Plasma or LCD made to fit this stand. I popped the caps off the back of my Panasonic Plasma, Installed the 2 Brackets with the Included/Correct bolts, and lifted it onto the Stand mount, then screwed up the lock bolts to keep it from somehow being knocked off. Your HDTV isn’t going anywhere!!!

All three glass shelves have scratched edges and fine scratch marks on the front/top sides. The design makes it impossible to turn the glass over or insert backwards to hide the problem. This problem occurred due to inadequate packing of the dark glass shelving units. The shipping box showed no signs of damage. The glass simply lacked protection from movement of the box’s contents in shipping.
We needed the stand for the arrival of a new TV and had already partialy assembled the unit when the scratches were noticed. It’s a heavy weight stand and to return/replace anything sounded like too much trouble and time.
