Ordered this product based on positive reviews.
However, the product has arrived broken (the plastic anchors that were supposed to hold the top cover were smashed to pieces). Ordered a replacement. Got it the next day, opened the boxes and saw the same problem. Will get a refund and not buy it from Amazon.

A bit pricey but it was well worth it. Installation was easy especially if you already have your TV mounted in the wall studs. Just follow the same studs. This is mounted below a 40" Sony and looks great. The color is a dark wood brown. Not exactly black but you can hardly notice unless you have a spotlight in the area. Anything smaller and the mount may look too big (my opinion). Anyway, it looks great! As far as the WAF (wife acceptance factor) it rates very high! Four stars because of price. If it was a in the $150 price range it would earn 5.

OmniMount MWFS Adjustable 2 Shelf Wall System w/ Cable Management
I spent days reviewing other products before settling on this one even though this was the most expensive. The product arrived the day after I ordered even with the free shipping. Packaging was great and the assembly was fairly intutive. There are no written instructions just pictures. That is my only gripe. The construction of the frame is solid.
There is plenty of room to hide the cables. The overall finish is very good.
I intend to post a picture after I have all the components fully setup on the shelf.

I purchased the Moda series wall furniture from Amazon along with an Omnimount tilting wall mount for my Samsung 40 in. LCD. I found that the Moda wall furniture was fairly easy to install, but it is essential that you measure very carefully in order for the top wiring cover to be flush with the bottom of the TV so that the wires dont show. Other than that it was pretty simple to mount the frames, install the shelves, hook up the components and hide the wires behind the wiring covers. It looks like a very professional job and it only took about two or three hours to do everything. There is one issue that is rather annoying. The whole idea of buying the Moda system was so that I could hide the wiring without cutting a lot of holes in the wall. It certainly hides the wiring except where the power cords exit the bottom of the bottom wiring cover. So, I still have some unsightly wires and my surge protector extending below the bottom of the wall furniture. I fixed that by placing a leather bench under the wall furniture, which gives it a nice look but still doesnt completely solve the wiring situation. Other than that, Im quite happy with the entire set up. I recommend it.

It is sturdy, and I like the way the cables can be hidden behind the panel.
The TV ends up high on the wall, and the mounting instructions were confusing which is why I give it only 4 stars.
See the customer image I uploaded for the end result. Shipping was very fast which I must give a lot of credit to Amazon for.

This shelf is great and as sturdy as can be. I had to readjust the wires several times and it is a breeze.

I have a wall mounted 50" Panasonic, this baby looks awesome mounted directly below and some of my friends have stated "it looks like it is holding the TV up, kind of like a stand" for the TV.
The lower larger shelf in this kit holds my Onkyo 7.1 receiver (25lbs). The upper smaller shelf holds a DVD player, my DirecTV HD box and a center channel speaker (20lbs). My top components have about an inch to spare on the front of the shelf and my bottom receiver has about 3 inches to spare. All my connections are via HDMI which take an additional 1.5 inches in space when connecting. If youre not using HDMI, you have tons of space on these shelves for your components.
Installation was a snap for a do-it-yourselfer, a Saturday evening job for me. It comes in 3 pieces, (a top piece with top shelf, a middle piece with bottom shelf and a bottom piece- just filler I guess to make it look good) and each piece has its own metal "frame" that mounts to the wall (studs). The glass shelfs then mount to this frame with 4 hex screws. You then place your equipment on the shelves and then snap these wooden back plates over the frames. These plates completely cover any and all connections and cords and there is also plenty of room behind these snap-on plates. Once snapped-on, they do not pop-off easily.
The WAF (wife acceptance factor) at first was a 2.0, as she was concerned about safety for my 4 year old. The WAF has since gone up to an 8.0, as this baby is rock solid if bumped from the sides. My friends say "wow" and "cool" when they first saw it as it looks like my components are floating (I have all silver components) and you cannot see any cables unless you walk up and look behind them.
All in all, it is an expensive purchase when you are comparing it with the rest of the shelf systems, but the craftsmanship, ingenuity and finished looks make up for the price in the end. 4 out of 5 stars, with minis 1 star being the price.
