Is there any way to fasten this to the top shelf of your current stand to keep someone from sliding it around?

Not without doing Damage to current stand. Buy small piece of non slip padding for area rugs, cut small strips to fit tv stand and glue them to stand. Prevents slippage and protects underneath surface

Yes get good double sided tape. Or wood glue. But if you think you might want to take them apart later go with the tape.

I haven't tried it, but I think it should work. There is a lip around the top shelf and it appears the legs should fit just inside of it, which should keep it from falling off.

I believe none as the metal shelves work with plastic lock in pieces that are tapered. top shelf is rubber inserts. roller wheels I believe are also inserts. it might be nice to have a rubber mallet to lightly tap metal shelfs in place although I did it by using my weight to make sure shelfs were locked tight onto plastic pieces.

Not really. You could removed the top shelf by unscrewing it from the top, yet the CD holders are still attached and the unit's back side rails or back bones are still going to show. I suspect it may comprise the stability of the unit.

Yes, but the shelf will not fit completely down over the retaining clip afterwards.

No. Or just flip the stand, if thatll mke any difference. Screws are the only thing holding it

each shelf snaps in with a "c" shaped connector to the frame. You could remove the middle shelf and put it upside down on the lower shelf (the connector won't fit on top of another shelf, but if you flip it over, it should be OK). We'd loved these shoe racks...great product.

My shelf is about an inch but it's a loose fit. You might need to add tape or something to hold it.

The shelf is in a fixed location. I think it is designed like this, to make the unit more sturdy.

Are you sure you have the right pieces in the right order? I did not experience any difficulty stabiling my stand. perhaps you could try putting the base together first, making sure it's secure,then adding top/higher pieces? Am sorry, this prob isn't much help, but mine was fine.....

Yes, the handle is a completely separate piece that doesn't act to support to the top shelf. You'd just have a couple of holes there where it would otherwise screw in.

There is a small ledge on the shelf that keeps the items from falling off the shelf. I'm still very happy with this purchase. I have no complaints about it. We've had it for about 6 months now I believe.

The item has a rubberized material sewn on the base which has pretty good anti-slide properties. I have not had a problem with the item sliding at all. Over time, I suppose the material could harden and become slick. If that should happen, I plan to use a swatch of rubberized shelf liner to keep the item in place.

There is a frame member that comes up the back of the desk unit, then curves out toward the front of the desk. The shelf on top can be left off but the 2 frame pieces will be very visible and may cause a hazardous condition. Personally, I would not leave the top shelf off for safety reasons, if nothing else.

I don't think this is the best choice to keep things from sliding around. This has raised ridges that actually allow items to move easily. I would choose one of the more cushion-y shelf liners if you want non-skid.

Initially, there was a little stiffness but there is no release that I am aware of. My shelf moves smoothly and is very sturdy. Try sliding the shelf backward. (It is very easy to get confused when attaching the slides to the edges of the shelf. When marking the drill holes on the desk, the slides should be in the closed position. The end-caps on the innermost slides should be facing front. In use, the slides extend the shelf in one direction only.) If the shelf moves backward -- or the end-caps are in the back -- you have the slides reversed. If you decide to just turn the whole unit around, you'll be resting your palms on the sharp edge of the shelf. You'll have to actually trade the slides to make sure the front of the shelf (with rounded edges) is facing you. If none of the above explains your problem, then I have one other suggestion. It is extremely important to be careful about marking and pre-drilling the screw holes. (Both mark and MEASURE before drilling.) If the L brackets are not perfectly perpendicular to the desktop and parallel (and equidistant) with each other, torque may prevent the glides from sliding in their channels. Good luck.

I don't have any way to secure mine but your keyboard might be different. Mine just sits on top of the stand. It feels really solid to me and has holes in the top where you could bolt it down (if your keyboard has that capability).
