Init™ - TV Stand for Flat-Panel TVs Up to 50" or Tube TVs Up to 42"

I purchased my Init® TV Stand , 52” Samsung LCD TV and 5:1 Samsung Home Theater system about 3 weeks ago and I can’t be happier! The stand really just ties my system all together; you can’t go wrong with this stand. It sleek and sturdy and the 3 in 1 capability are awesome. The wood, and glass combination give this stand a very modern a contemporary look while the metal frame give it the strength and sturdiness to hold up my 52 inch monster with ease. Hands down this is the stand of choice when you want versatility and although it is a bit pricey it is definitely worth every penny especially since you get a stand and a wall mount.

I really love this stand, it goes perfectly with my home decor ,and the color of my couches...What i love the most is t,hat it looks more expensive than what is really is.Had no problems putting it together very easy to assemble with perfectly easy to understand instructions.Holds my 50" plasma tv with no problem.Looks really nice in my livingroom and get a lot of compliments.I just love it!!!!!

We got this stand to go with our new 50 inch Panasonic plasma TV and have been very happy with it. It took me about two hours to assemble it and get the TV mounted on it. My big gripe about assembly was the very small print in the instructions, but I worked through it and got it set up without major hassle. It fits our 50 inch TV with room to spare. The back TV mount is very sturdy and it does tilt up and down (but not side to side) which I didn't realize when I bought it. That was a nice bonus! The TV mount can also be used to hang the TV from a wall instead of from the stand itself. The only thing I do not like about this stand is that the bottom glass shelf is held in by two plastic pins that do not actually attach to anything, they are just held in by gravity. Our toddlers are constantly playing with and taking out these pins, which leaves the bottom shelf unattached to the frame. Overall, not a big deal.

I had been eyeing this stand for my 47" TV, and when the price came down to $200, I purchased it with some gift cards that I had accumulated. As others have noted, this thing is HEAVY. I live up a flight of steps and ended up having to tear the box open and transport the TV stand piece by piece. I would strongly recommend that you take a friend with you to transport this unit. Also, the instructions are terrible. If you're going to use pictures as a guide, Init should take a look at how Ikea does it - everything is crystal clear as to where everything screws in. For me, the toughest part was figuring out how to attach my TV to the mount. The nice thing is that all of the screws that you'd need are included in this. Although the transport and installation were a pain in the rear, the stand itself is beautiful once assembled. This is no Ikea-quality TV stand. Everything feels rock solid and I love how my TV is now attached to the included mount. This stand is also great if you have a center channel speaker and home theater setup. I have gotten numerous compliments on my stand, and I'm very happy with it. Just be prepared to spend a few hours figuring out how to put it together.

-Received sale price of $200, though purchased for $300. Good stand for that price. -The cherry color matches our existing coffee/side tables well. -The instructions were not the best, but easily doable in less than one hour. -I love the integral TV mount. Now I do not have to worry about the TV ever tipping over. This also allows room for the center speaker on the top shelf below the TV. With all my components, it was hard to find a stand with enough room for everything. -The wire management is not very good. There is not enough room for a power strip and all the associated wires/cords. I wish it had a larger back panel as I am not a fan of the see through look. Though I think I can jerry-rig a better back panel for it to hid all the cables. -I also wish the glass was smoked/tinted. This would also help obscure some of the wires. -The bottom shelf bows a little in the front middle, even with just two items sitting on it. -Overall, very good, and I am happy with this. I looked around a lot, and this stand is the best fit for us.

I purchased this product and had it delivered yesterday and it is a beautiful piece of furniture. It is so far beyond the black laquer, glass and steel designs that seem to be all you can find when looking for a simple TV stand. It fits in perfectly in a casual or contemporary setting. A few small drawbacks. 1) It is extremely heavy when delivered so you might need assistance. 2) Alot of bolts and screws so if you have any arthtritis or dexterity issues again, might require some help. 3) The tools provided were for childsize hands. Will go alot faster and easier if you have a adult sized Allen(sp) wrench. 4) Lastly, if the manufacturer reads these reviews I was dissapointed on the location of the punchouts for wires for AV equipment. They are too high above the shelf location which makes them easily viewable from behind the equipment on the shelves. They need to be placed much closer to the shelves so the wires are more directly behind and therefore hidden by DVR, DVD or blue-ray equipment.

This TV Stand is perfect for anyone in an apartment such as myself. My apartment complex's management will let you wall mount a TV for more money, kinda like a security deposit, so I decided to go with this stand for the same look and feel. This stand was great. I bought a Sony BRAVIA 46" 1080p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV and it weighs about 50 lbs, the stand has no problem holding the TV securely. It looks great, all my components fit on it Perfectly ! I even have space to spare. I put it together myself in about 2 hours, Instructions are simple to follow, and easy to understand. The only thing I would warn you about is the weight, it is a heavy piece of furniture, it's a two man lift, or in my case a borrowed hand truck from work. It is real heavy wood and glass. The glass is the bulk of the weight. But it is what makes it so sturdy, the price was great for the quality. I saw some cheaper products at other stores but they felt cheaper, and with the price of my TV I wanted the best I could get !

We purchased a 50 inch panny plasma which was delivered 3 days early, thus in my haste to find a stand we decided on this model predicated on the reviews! All I can say is thanks, the stand is wonderful the Cherry Oak wood matches our hardwood floor and installation was easy! I do recommend a allen bit that fits in a screwdriver or cordless drill to speed up the installation process. Overall, very satisfied with the construction and workmanship. One concern is the bottom glass is elevated approximately 2 inches from the floor and the dust bunnies have a tendency to gather under the stand. Our Dyson vaccuum attatchment will not fit between the floor and the bottom glass however, the hand Swifter duster does.
