    Having discovered that TV wall mounts and/or glass shelves for LCDs and Plasmas are outrageously priced here, I found this one for half price online. Unit is £45 + £10 courier shipping to Ireland.

    Just put mine up over the weekend - Solid as a rock and nicely aesthetic. Note that there's no tilt or swivel on it, but that didn't matter for where I was installing it.

    Very nice! If I was in the market for one I would be very interested!

    I was concerned about that too at first, but if you ring them, they arrange for £10 delivery.

    Also meant to say, you can see in picture 4 that the horizontal mounting brackets can potentially get in the way of some of the connectors. You don't need these brackets if your TV has a 75x75 or 100x100 VESA mount. For my TV, the bottom bracket had to meet Mr Hacksaw to free up access to my component inputs. Problem solved.

    Nice looking unit.

    Don't think it'll be much good though if you have a Sky box, bluray player, Xbox, amp, etc.

    Should be 0044 1244 378555.
    Basically the access code for Britain is 0044, and you drop the first 0 in the phone number.

    32" Samsung B450, which from the look of it is a bigger one than the one in the picture (27"?). Sony DAVX1 on the shelf with the woofer tucked underneath.

    Put two screws on left hand side into stud and two in right hand side into plasterboard expanding toggle anchors. Was actually surprised just how solid it was on the wall.

    Hmm. Spose I can do that. Will be tomorrow though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 716 ✭✭✭Reesy


    Thanks for that. Will need a TV stand v. shortly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 567 ✭✭✭garlad


    Have bought 2 stands of these people in the last year. Excellent service.
    Had an issue with the second one I got, and they sent me out a replacement no bother.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 551 ✭✭✭coffee to go


    Apologies for the delays guys. Here's what the installed product looks like, if anyone's still interested...

    Looks good, really neat - do you reckon this would be ok to put over a radiator (albeit on that gives out very little heat!!!)

    Also do you rekcon the shelf could hold abit more (DVD, VCR & playstaion or would that be too heavy)

    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 551 ✭✭✭coffee to go


    Well the DAV on mine is fairly old and weighs a flipping ton. The shelf feels really sturdy, and I'd have no problem adding an extra component or two to it. I'd say over a rad is fine too - it's all metal and tempered glass, so don't think a tiny bit of heat would be an issue.

    Nice find and good value too.
    How do you think this would look with a 40 inch (I have to check weight as well). Yours looks well matched but I am worried a larger telly with the stand might look 'off'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,305 ✭✭✭blahblah06


    Sweet coffee. Order placed

    I should be on commission :D

    Here's a quick photoshop mockup of my setup with the TV enlarged to roughly a 40 inch. Still looks ok to me. You'd definitely want to be securing the bracket to a stud though.

    Thanks OP. Got mine yesterday and only took 3 days from ordering.
    Looks great and was straight forward to put up.
    Would highly recommend that crowd to anyone.

    Just ordered, looking forward to receiving it and seeing how it goes with my non-vesa tv (they said it should work :))


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 551 ✭✭✭coffee to go


    This deal still seems to be running for anyone else who's interested!
