Is the back straight (parallel to front) or cornered? Is it only for a corner or can it be placed along a straight wall?

Yes, the back is straight and is parallel to the front so you would be able to put it along a straight wall.

It can go flat against a wall. It's a great stand, HOWEVER it arrived damaged. I called the company multiple times to exchange and NEVER got a call back. BEWARE.

The back is straight and parallel to the front. However, the length of the back line is longer than the length of the front line by 12 inches (36" versus 48"). It could be used on a straight wall, but I think it is better in a corner.

It has a straight back and, yes, can be placed along a straight wall. I am very happy with this unit (despite the damaged box it arrived in and the small nicks in it. Very noticeable when taking it from the box and trying to assemble it but once put together it looks great!)

The back is parallel to the front. Looking at the displayed picture, about at the end of the tv the back angles forward. This allows you to kitty corner the tv at various angles. You can put this stand flat against the wall but you probably be able to see the unfinished back edge unless you block it with some other furniture or speaker. I hope this helps.

Sorry for the delay! It has a bit of a curve to the back so it's not flush against the wall. But beautiful! Would recommend it!

This item has a flat back and lies flat against a wall. This item is not a corner cabinet. The 680-407 is similar and is a corner cabinet.

It needs to be on a flat wall. The back is flat and is attached to a wall with screws on either side of the flat portion of the top and bottom shelves. So no, I don't see any way it can be installed in a corner.

Yes the corners are finished just as the rest of the unit. I use it on a flat wall currently and have no problem with the looks. I bought it with the plan in mind that it could be used either way and am very happy with it.

The bracket that fastens to the wall (that the shelf then attaches to) is intended to mount to a flat surface. You would have to build a flat surface in your corner at a 45 angle to effectively mount this in the corner. There are undoubtedly better choices than this shelf.

Just corner. It's shaped to fit perfectly in the corner but there's no way to straighten it to fit flat.

Looks great against a wall. As a room divider with the back visible - I wouldn't recommend it.

It has a flat back so it can definitely be put against a wall if you'd like. It does fit perfectly in my corner though. I'm the type who likes the TV kind of out of site so this is perfect for me.

No it wont go across an internal corner, it is designed to stick in position on a flat wall. No reason it couldn't be right up against the corner though.

Because it is a rather tall unit, mounting is helpful. Actually, placing two very small wedge under the front two corners would allow it to very slightly lean back so that it would be less likely to fall forward, assuming you are placing it against a wall.

It's flat across the back. It does not have to be used in a corner. I have it flat against a wall.

No, this unit is not intended to be used as a corner shelf. It is clearly designed to be mounted onto a flat wall.

The back portion is flat and that would work fine on a flat wall. However, where the side shelves are, the part that would face the wall is unfinished so you would see the board. Quick fix would be to just paint that part ion a black and nobody would ever know because of the odd angle of it. Hope that helps. We love it and would highly recommend it! Good luck shopping!

I wouldn't place it in a corner. It needs to rest flat against a wall and would not do that in a corner.

You will have to mount it flush on one wall but it must hit in a stud. Or it my not hold. The angle of the bracket will allow for it to be in the corner
