I found the latest version of the manual online, which is dated December 15, 2014 From page 2: The top surface of this stand is designed for use with a product weighing no more than 300 lbs. From page 11: The bottom shelves can only support 95 lbs. while the top can support 300 lbs. Note that page 2 also includes specifications stating maximum weight as 300 lb, which is obviously misleading (i.e., it's top shelf, not total capacity). I also posted images of these pages. After purchasing/returning another stand that turned out to be way too unstable, I purchased this one for $239.24 in 2011. It looks fantastic and is built like a tank. I have a 92.6 lb 60" plasma TV on the top shelf, a 38 lb (7.9 x 24.8 x 13.2 in.) center channel speaker on the middle shelf, and a 28.2 lb A/V receiver, plus a 37.5 lb tube amp on the bottom shelf. If you are planning to place a center channel speaker on the middle shelf, I highly recommend getting some wedge-shaped isolation pads. This will angle the mid and high frequencies (which unlike bass are directional) up towards ear level. They will also eliminate low-end vibration transfer from the speaker to the shelf. Hope this helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Interestingly, page 11 of the installation instructions say "the bottom selves can only support 25 pounds, while the top can support 95 pounds. But page 2 says it can support 300 pounds. Page 11 has got to be wrong as you could not use this for tv accessories if the bottom two shelves can only support 25 pounds. I'm hoping someone from the company can respond with an authoritive answer.
