What is the weight limit on this unit? We have an older model TV and are wondering if it would work for that.

I think the weight limits are somewhere in the Amazon ad, if you search the small print. I'm quite sure it takes about a 58" set or a little larger (yes, look at the little picture to the side here). I bought a 32" and I know I could certainly have put something much larger on if I wanted to. As far as an older TV, Cynthia, if it is one of those big heavy models with the large back sticking out, I would not use this item. I got rid of an old TV like that and it was very heavy. I would not have felt secure putting it on this piece. This model was designed for the newer TVs.

It could probably hold an older TV weight wise but this shelf is thin. Im pretty sure it was designed for flat screens..

Not sure, but the width of the unit is only going to work with a flat screen TV. A tube TV will be too deep and would hang too far off of the front of the unit to be stable.

I do not now the weight limit, but I think it can take an old TV because it is quite sturdy after being assembled. It is supported at the center by a piece that you cannot see in a standing position from the front (it is about 5-6 inches back from the front).

I have an 80" smart tv that I believe weighs more than 115lbs. It works very nicely for me.

I wouldn't personally put a large TV (more than 36") on it unless it's a very new and lightweight model. I bought it to use for my "standing desk" and it does support and just barely fit my two 22" monitors + keyboard if I keep my monitors slightly angled. All of those items can't possibly weigh more than 10 lbs.

It states that it accommodates up to a 50 inch tv and 70 lbs. As long as it falls into that category it should be fine. I brought it for my 32 inch TV and I love it, no problems at all.

tv is too big. im almost 100% sure the max size tv was 55". i think max weight of the tv would be around 70 pounds. a 70 inch screen would prob be unstable.

There is no specified weight limit. The unit is solid wood and very sturdy. I imagine that most, if not all, flat screen TVs or CRT TV's would be fine on it. The top is just under 30" wide.

I have an older 48" Plasma TV (not sure how much it weighs), but have had no issue. The key is making sure the mount is installed correctly (make sure you hit the studs!)

My tv is 32 " and this holds up to 37. weight wise, really just depends on if your tv is a lot heavier with a dvd added. It can hold a lot, but my tv is flat screen. I really did not think something so small would hold a tv to the wall, but hasnt moved at all.

This TV mount as I remember was rated well above 80 lbs as long as it is mounted to the wall properly. My personal experience is it would hold at least 2 - 80lb TVs. It's a universal mount so there shouldn't be any problems attaching the hangers. I've had mine for about 2 years. I give it a 10 out of 10 rating! Sony 60"

The manufacturer has rated it for up to 70" TVs. As we view it in the store it is very heavy & strong and should support at least 200 pounds.

It holds up to 40 pounds max. So it would depend mostly on the weight of the TV.

It is rated to hold 100 pounds. I put a 65" tv on it that was 138 pounds, and it seems fine. However, you should definitely follow the instructions to anchor it to the wall (supplies included) if you ever have small children or pets over that may try to climb on it.

It says it holds up to 100 pounds in the description. I guess it depends on how much your TV weighs.

It might work but I wouldn't be too confident in it. It's made of a cheap grade wood and the legs are not that stout. Depends, of course, on the weight of the TV.

My TV weighs around 60 lbs and it holds it with no problem I think it could hold at least 20 more

I have a 32" flatscreen on the top, the middle holds a 5+/- lb av receiver and a middle surround speaker. I just tried sitting on the top shelf with the tv still on it and it did not seem like it would break. I am just under 200lbs. I did not put all my weight on it but enough to know it can hold about 50 lbs without worry. Id even go as far to say it holds 100lbs on the top shelf alone but you shouldn't put anything that heavy on it either way; no tv weighs that much that you wouldn't just mount to the wall. It is really unbelievably sturdy for the material and assembly. slight wobble but not fall apart wobble. you would have to try to break it in order to.

The box that my PMA 5031 states that it is for TV's up to 70" and rated at up to 130 lbs. I just looked it up online and the same PMA 5031, rated for 130 lbs, states that it can handle TV's up to 80". Perhaps at the time that my packing box was made they may not of had 80" TV's. I would trust it - especially since the back plate is 36" wide. the vertical "hanging" bars that attach to the TV are 18 inches long and I would guess that the bolt holes are about 16 inches top to bottom. I would suggest measuring the bolt hole distance on the TV.
