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).

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.

Also, be sure the shelf brackets go behind the top cross bar, then in FRONT of the one under it. Just hanging it loose wont work, shelf will tilt forwards. Done as indicated, shelf will stay level.

Definitely not with the hardware provided. I considered buying some brackets to mount underneath and to the wall but ultimately ended up just taking the whole thing down and getting something else. I just don't trust it. Even the small shelves would teeter back and forth with just light picture frames. If I were to buy another ladder shelf/bookcase/desk, I would buy one with front and back legs. This just doesn't have the right support.

I don't think it would. There is no horizontal support and you laptop would rattle around.

just turn the whole thing around, the tilt for the laptop side has about 180 degrees for choice of angle and the lip to keep it from sliding off is identical on both sides; hope this helps

I would not suggest it. It is not that the shelf is not fairly sturdy, it just not it's intended purpose; so it was not really made with that kind of support in mind. The shelf is fairly skinny which is a great feature for space saving, but not good for holding a TV base. I would stick to a real table or tv stand rather than this shelf.

I never installed the lower shelf, it was fine without it.. a small laptop would work if you want to use it as a desk as the table is a little narrow, but it could work..

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.

The top mounting shelf is stationary. A slight tilt would be possible with the small pads provided to protect the speakers from scratching, vibrating off, etc.

No.The one I ordered does not have the laptop shelf. I do know they offer one that does.

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

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.

Yes, the tilt degree is adjustable in several ways. It goes from nearly vertical to nearly flat. It's an awesome book stand.

This one does not have the retractable shelf. I use my Crane stand to hold my laptop. Keep in mind, if you get the case with the shelf that it will overlap so if you are setting this up on a table or a tight DJ booth people may be prone to bumping into it and/or you may not have room to push it out.

The shelf is not removable and the back is solid. I suppose you might build it w/o the shelf but that would not be as designed.

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.
