Can the laptop shelf be completely horizontal (i.e. not tilt at all)?I am asking, because I would like to use it to hold a small PC (not a laptop).

I own this item and depending on the weight of the PC I don't think you would have a problem. Only thing I can think of is you wouldn't be able to tighten the lug tight enough to support a PC. Good Luck.

I haven't been able to get it to 100% level due to the way the hardware attaches. Always has some sort of tilt no matter how I screwed on the plate.

It tilts at minimum a small degree. I would put more than 15 pounds on it tho

Hello Zachi,The laptop mount will not be able to be set completely horizontally flat, but it will hold your PC if it's under the 22 pound limit.Thank you for your question.Taylor W.VIVO

While horizontal might be technically possible, the shelf would likely need additional stabalizing hardware add this is not it's intended or designed use. Also, it would depend on the weight. If you intend to put a desktop and monitor on it, this would likely exceed the designed capacity.

Unless your monitors are super heavy, there's no need. I've had no issues with it tilting and it has been very solid.

The tilting mechanism is not that sturdy. I wouldn't recommend putting anything more then the weight and size of a laptop computer.

Not really, the feet give you half an inch maybe. The shelf can be mounted anywhere on the legs though.

It can, but it will probably not be stable. It doesnt have the weight to the wood like a regular wood shelf would have.

No, it is not possible using the normal mounting. It would do that if you welded it or built a separate platform. Also, it's not that sturdy. It /might/ fail under the wait of computer speakers. There's no way it would hold bookshelf speakers or studio monitors (even small 5" speakers). Something would fail immediately, though I'm not sure what.

No, its for the desk :( Pretty sure there are wall mounts the have laptop trays/mounts. Could look into wall mounted component shelves too, there's a ton of those on Amazon.

The way that the vertical posts are built prohibit this. I bought shorter shelf systems. Keep looking you will find them.

I dont think so. The bottom platform might be, but the top platform isnt. I think the shelves can be reversed to though.

Yes, I currently have 2 monitors about that size on the top shelf. They are tilted in a hair but very stable and no weight issues. Makes so much remaining desk space available.

Never thought of it! Horizontally? Uummm, guest u could BUT u would only have one shelf and I do not see the point of getting this bookshelf. However, I do remember seeing one that would be more ur thing. The bookshelf is all blocked off, so no matter which way u put it, u can use the shelves!! Give me some time and will find the name and order # for u, if they Still have them. Will Let u know.

The bookshelf can only be assembled in one way according to the instructions. You technically CAN turn it horizontally, but you cannot store anything on the shelves. If you have tall skinny items I suppose it would be ok.

I tipped mine vertically to try it and it stayed upright, but it teeters because of the way the shelves stick out from the frame on the ends. It has a little shelf on the top which is also good for storage and if you tip it vertically you loose that storage space. I would not recommend it be used vertically. Hope this helps.

If you are only putting the monitor on it sure but not the monitor and the tower. You would need to reinforce the shelve with "L" brackets under each shelf - that's what I did because I have a lot of books on them and my wireless printer. It's pretty study though, more than I expected it to be.

Not without it being completely unstable. The shelf supports the legs and keeps them straight.

Yes. Each half can independently be vertical or horizontal. Beware that the shelf is a little to narrow for the base of the hanger and the lip at the edge doesn't come over the end of the hanger base. Not a big deal. I have two of these from different companies but obviously the same supplier so I assume this is the result of some mismeasurement in the design process. It works great in practice, though.

The arm is certainly strong enough to support a laptop weight BUT the shelf part is probably not wide enough for a laptop base. Hope that helps=)
