Well, I had one of those pressed-wood entertainment center things with the plastic wood grain. So when I moved my things, they all stayed in an unheated storage room for a few extra years there. Then I got a new apartment and could finally set up my big component system that I was building up a piece at a time, and this Bush rack seemed like just what I wanted, at a lot better price than the ones in the audio wishbook.
When it came I assembled it in one evening and put all the stereo gear in it and I found out my Vincent sp-331 power amp is about an inch too long to use the cabinet with the door on, but it looks ok with it left off though, and someday I might alter the back a little bit to get that extra space at the bottom, and maybe a little fan then because of all the heat that thing puts out.
I gave that huge Sauder thing to Goodwill.

this shelf is classier looking than the picture showed.I am extremely happy with the shelves
If you have several components in your home theater or audio system, this tower is great with its 5 shelves. The shelves are not adjustable but I found the space provided for each shelf sufficient as it was, allowing enough room for the components that give off heat. The holes in the back help organize all the wires somewhat so they're not a complete mess. The metal frame is fairly sturdy and the shelves thick tempered glass; despite that, it's easy to move around when needed. The only slight negative about the design is that the clamps which help hold the shelves in place are only on one side of the unit, which surprised me. It seems that the suction cups on the rods that stick to the shelves do a fine job of holding them in place though. I've had no problems with the unit at all. Be sure when you get it that you have help though - the package is very heavy and requires two people to move.
Looks great and is of excellent quality. Hard to believe it's so inexpensive. Easy to assemble too.
