Would it be okay to put our Television on the top of this unit?

The unit would hold a flat screen not sure if the heat from the tv would affect the heater unit. No bigger than a 32" flat screen.

I have a 40 inch flat screen on top of mine and have had since I bought it about a year ago. I made sure that the wheels are sitting on some small pieces of board to make sure it is stable and the tv wont fall off because soft carpet is unstable.

While the heater blows to the bottom, I personally wouldn't put anything like that on top of the heater, the base isn't exactly that wide. Leigh is correct that the unit is sturdy but it wouldn't take much to push it over forward or backward. Besides it only comes up above your knee, which is not very high, you can get a 19" wall mount for about $10, a lot less likely that your tv will get knocked over.

As long as you attach the hanging hardware into the studs there should be no problem. Your TV appears to be well within the parameters. I had no problem with my television which was the same weight.

I wouldn't. The TV will will, probably, fit on the heater, but I doubt if it will be very stable.

I would not put a TV on it. I think it would sag pretty quickly unless the TV was very small and/or lightweight.

I guess you can but The bottom part of the unit is probably not sturdy enough to hold the TV.

I think a small one would be fine but you should anchor the tv to the shelf and the shelf to the wall. The shelf is VERY sturdy but since it's so tall, I'd worry about a child pulling it over with a tv on top. No kids? I'd say it shouldn't be much of a worry.

This is exactly what we did and it works fine. As long as your components fit of course. We have it next to fireplace where tv is mounted. We are happy with it.

We have our large flat screen TV sitting on top of it and all of our components sitting inside of it. The whole mess sits on top of a TV stand. We cut a section out of the back to accommodate the cords and have used it to have a place for our DVD player, etc. because our TV stand did not have enough room. It seems to be pretty sturdy and it is pretty. Blends beautifully with the TV stand, etc.

Hi Tia, If this helps I have a 42 " TV on the top of mine as well as other small electronics on the shelves. It is a very sturdy unit.

I wouldn't. This thing is heavy by itself, plus the TV. Can you screw some 2x4s horizontally to some nearby studs for mounting?

I live in earthquake country and would have to agree with the others who suggest using a flat board/surface the length and width of the top shelf under the TV, and only if it's a flat screen model. Since the shelves are adjustable, I'd consider lowering the middle shelf and putting the TV there.

No the tv just sits on top of the unit. You could clamp the back of the tv stand to the top of the unit to secure the tv to the top.

Hi Bruce, the GreatCo 50" Wall Mount Fireplace has a bottom vent heater, so mounting a tv above the unit should not be an issue.

I dont think so. the unit is heavy but the back of the dresser is flimsy and the dresser is unstable. my husband nailed a piece of plywood on back to stabilize it. Its a cheap "made in china" piece of junk. Im using for baby clothes so works ok. putting heavy TV on top may be risky. very complicated to put together. very heavy. but surprisingly unstable.

No. This isn't designed for televisions. If you do something like that, you're going to create a hazard. This is a component shelf.

No. It is designed to be laying flat and its space saving with the TV on top.
