Salamander Synergy 323 Four-Shelved A/V Cabinet (Cherry/Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This Salamander Designs rack is very well made and looks great. It takes a few hours to assemble, but the result is nicer than most home theater furniture out there. Unfortunately, Amazon's shipping (via UPS) didn't go so well and the outer box arrived in very bad shape. I was hoping that the inner box would protect the item, but, alas, one of the two doors was damaged. I'm now trying to get Amazon to replace the door, but they can only exchange the whole unit. The shipping box is completely destroyed, so I've been forced to contact the manufacturer directly. Crossing my fingers...

Classic Mix Red Flame Decal Kit for all KitchenAid stand mixers Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What fun! Now my mixer can be upgraded to look like Alton Brown's! I'd tried the decals designed for cars and it just didn't work. Thanks for these decals just for my KitchenAid mixer. I bought a set for me and for a friend who is also an Alton Brown fan.

OmniMount Flat Panel Floor Stand with Universal Adapter and Shelf - FSUA-B Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Good.
This is my second Omnimount stand/mount. I will say outright that their customer support is excellent. They are fast to answer, patient, courteous, and fast to resolve.

My last Omnimount mount was a cantilever architectural series wall mount. It was strong, attractive, and neat with the cable management. It even supported rotating into portrait mode without dismounting the display. The instructions were great and included a drilling template with an integrated folding dust catcher. Very well executed.
The Bad.
This stand on the other hand, had very poor instructions. They were of the "picture only" variety to save in translating and printing costs. Several grip pads were included but not referenced in the instructions requiring some guesswork.
The head had a fixed portrait or landscape positioning which was disappointing as I expected this much more expensive unit to have a mount head similar to the cantilever unit. Furthermore, the "lift n' lock" is much much more difficult to use than on the cantilever model and requires the unit to rest on the threads of the fixed bolts of the mounting head, risking damaging them. These bolts are also too close to the tilt mechanism's bolts to tighten with a HDTV in place without serious hand dexterity.
Finally, the TV mount head bracket was manufactured too small to slide over the top of the pole as indicated on the instructions requiring assembly at the final resting height to avoid scratching up the polished pole. This will also complicate disassembly, if necessary.
If the head had been of the cantilever's design and the head bracket had fit the pole properly this would have been a five star product despite the poor instructions which only frustrate during assembly.

SEI Denton Media Console with Electric Fireplace, Walnut Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Only problem with this media console was that the top piece was pre-drilled incorrectly. The dowel pins and cam-locks did not line up with the assembled bottom unit and were 1/2" off! There was no way to assemble the last piece! We contacted SEI direct and customer service sent out a new top panel.

Convenience Concepts Go-Accsense 3 Tier Square End/Lamp Table Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking for inexpensive stylish end tables for my living room that would go with our modern furniture. You can't beat the price and they are very nice looking tables. Mine were in perfect shape and were very easy to put together. It only took a a couple of minutes to assemble them. They are fairly tall, but I like them.

Sanus PFV60 60'' Wide TV Stand (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I shopped for a "plain," nice-looking TV stand for long time. So many stands look too fancy for their own good (read: ugly). This one looks just right and has plenty of space and an ADJUSTABLE middle shelf (rare), so your larger components and center speaker can fit.
I ordered from The Simple TV Stand Store directly rather than through Amazon. The box arrived really bashed up, but the contents were well packed inside and were fine. One corner of the largest piece was dinged, but a little bit of black permanent marker hid the damage. The box also arrived without a manual but I downloaded it from Sanus's web site.
Assembly was terrific. Everything fit without a problem. I did it myself in under an hour with just a screwdriver.
The only real, but minor, quality issues are:
1. When inserting the last two wooden pegs in the top of the stand (to hold the glass top in place), the wood around BOTH peg holes split slightly. The damage is hidden by the glass. This is clearly Sanus's design mistake.
2. The two smallest screw holes (for holding the metal bar in place) were stripped. The screws hold anyway (sort of), and there's a heavy glass top on them, so it's not really a problem.
3. The adjustable glass shelf is a tight fit getting it in. While doing this, the shelf just barely touched the wooden frame and scraped off a square centimeter of black paint, leaving bare wood showing. Again, permanent magic marker hid the damage.
Tip: When installing the feet (step 1), stick some felt pads on the bottoms. That way, the stand slides nicely over your wooden floor without damaging it.
Tip #2: This stand is HEAVY in its box. Don't try to lift the box yourself unless you're a bodybuilder.
Overall I'm satisfied with the quality for the price.
UPDATE 2010-12-10: When I put a receiver and a center speaker on the middle glass shelf, it bows downward a bit, which I don't like/trust.

Pinpoint Universtal Bookshelf Speaker Wal Mount - Pinpoint AM40B Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I already had 2 sets of the Btech B77 and loved em, but couldn't find another. It looks like the AM40 might just be the same thing renamed. I ordered them and can't tell the difference.
These mounts look great and are rock solid. The clamp is strong enough to hold my surrounds without any screws. I was nervous about my Front Right and Left, and screwed those in. These look great and work great. I'd recommend to anyone doing a wall mounted speaker setup.
