I wish I could help you more on this question but heres my answer. I have a monitor, just one on the desk top, keyboard and modem, the unit seems to be very stable and solid, had the desk for about a year with no problems at all. I hope this helps you a bit. Jeff

That's a good question. I'd say I think it wouldn't have a problem up to two pounds or so. It's relatively well built for the money. Maybe more. What is it you're wanting to display?

My TV weighs less and is 55 inches. You probably will have a little bit of an overhang but if that doesn't bother you then I would only think of the weight but I see their description says can hold up to 150 lbs. The top shelf glass seems thick and sturdy so likely you wouldn't have a problem. Hope this helps.

Yes, it will hold more than 20 pounds. The box is very well made and sturdy. The drawer is not on mechanical sliders, so it slides well but will pull completely out if pulled far enough. The height is the best I found for raising a monitor to proper height. I am very satisfied with my purchase.

A follow up answer. One reviewer indicates he put 80 pounds on the stand with no problem and that they would hold 150 pounds.

It's tough to estimate low weight amounts. I would say that keeping the two top shelves between 5 and 10 lbs should be fine. The bottom shelf you could a concrete block as it is part of the stand supports. This computer is a heavy 17 and it does flex the two top shelves about 1/2". I have a much lighter, and newer, 17 that doesn't flex as much. My set up has a smaller Direct TV sat receiver on top, a medium sized DVD player in the middle, and an XBox 360 on the bottom. So far the little people (the kids) haven't broken anything and all components are staying much cooler.

Hmm...I would probably not trust it to hold 30 pounds of computer. It might, but it doesn't seem quite sturdy enough to me.

I have a 27" that it holds nicely, however, I don't think it is the weight you should be concerned about. Too large a monitor will not give you the height or maneuverability that it is designed for.

The stands are very strong and made of steel...they will hold vertical weight 12 lbs easily. I have two 19 inch monitors per stand no issues. The stand base is much larger than the picture suggests, at least 12 inches per leg and about 2 1/2 to 3 inches wide. You could use double sided tape under each leg to really hold it down or even drill and screw it to a surface if you had real concerns. Only issue is if the monitor is pushed back since there is no support there. The stand is designed as front weight biased. My monitor verticals rest against a window ledge and provides support if they are knocked backwards....hope this helps

No, this is a freestanding unit And frankly it does not have the structural integrity to support a significant amount of weight. Good luck :-)

A friend of mine has that desk and it is really cheap. I'm not sure I would put 3 monitors on that desk to begin with. That desk weighs 50lbs to begin with, so even with light 24" monitors, you would still double the weight...

I believe it could as the top of the pipe is 30" tall. I'm just not sure if this would make the stand top heavy. The specs say two 10"-23" monitors with max capacity of 33 lbs. I have a 24" monitor (on the bottom) 4" above my desk and then a 22" monitor on top. Rock solid as long as my 65 pound dog doesn't jump up on my desk. The 22" monitor could go up another 6" on the pipe.

As long as the back of the monitors have the proper mounting configuration, the stand will probably "support" the two monitors. The issue is not the weight of the monitors, but lifting the stand to a vertical position after mounting the monitors to the stand (assuming that the monitors were mounted while laying flat). It is cumbersome, at best, and not improbable that the stand will become unbalanced and fall over. Careful mounting, lifting and an extra set of hands can reduce this risk.

I have a 50 inch flat screen tv on it and it hold that just fine...My estimate is that it will easily hold 150 lbs..

Mine weighs in at around 40 lbs...which I thought was rather silly heavy. Would not trust any plastic stand to hold 80 lbs, but it may work. Having trouble coming up with any computer that could possibly be that heavy, by the way. While I have no idea what you have to make it that heavy, would suggest you make a custom stand...fairly easy to make from wood, by the way.

I am not sure if the top shelf would handle the weight of it? I know the bottom shelf would be ok but I am not sure on the weight limit on the top shelf.

Hi Sandy, yes, that shelf should be able to hold the monitor. However, be careful of the assembly. If not assembled properly, you can have some structural/function issues.
