Is there a recommended weight limit for the top of this cabinet?

Zero.. Its made out of fairy wishes and leprechaun farts. It couldn't hold a cup of unicorn pee

Mine is pretty sturdy and I"m happy with it, although not sure I would want 100 pounds on top, as that would likely make it top heavy and much less stable, or more likely to tip over. Guess it would depend on the center of gravity of the object itself.

YES. The Assembly Instructions have weight limits for each piece of this desk. Here they are: Top shelf = 10.0 lbs., Right and Left Small Top shelves directly under Top shelf = 5.0 lbs. each, large Desk Top = no weight limit given, 2 Drawers on Left Side = 33.06 lbs. each, Pull-Out Keyboard Shelf = 33.06 lbs., Right Side Open Space (tower shelf) = 150.0 lbs., No Other weight limits given. I imagine that the Left Side space with Door would be the same as the Right Side Open Space (150.0 lbs.) Hope this helps. I can scan the diagram and e-mail it to you as an attachment if you like.

Not much, Maybe 5 lbs. I have only put clothes on the top shelf. You probably want to reinforce the connections with zip ties like other reviewers have mentioned.

It's tough to estimate low weight amounts. I would say that keeping the two top shelves between 5 and 10 lbs should be fine. The bottom shelf you could a concrete block as it is part of the stand supports. This computer is a heavy 17 and it does flex the two top shelves about 1/2". I have a much lighter, and newer, 17 that doesn't flex as much. My set up has a smaller Direct TV sat receiver on top, a medium sized DVD player in the middle, and an XBox 360 on the bottom. So far the little people (the kids) haven't broken anything and all components are staying much cooler.

Hello! We got a small kitchen TV on the top shelf of this is about 6-8-lbs. In first place I think it will be too heavy and also too wide. It manages some books and a small TV in our place.

That won't be a problem. I don't remember what the upper limit was, but it was much higher than 70 pounds.

We must have over 50 pounds per shelf. Not sure what they are rated for though. We do love them though.

Please do not add anything that's heavy on top as this cabinet is not design for heavy things. Mine I used as China but nothing heavy on top.

I don't think there is a weight limit. This is a rugged hanger especially when anchored the correct way. The shelf can be used for storage.....I use it for my lids.

I'd say that is a typo. The cabinet weighs about 20lbs, plus packing, would get you to around 20.4lbs. It is very sturdy. You can see my initial review on this product from when I bought it.

There probably is a weight limit, but I don't know what it is. My guestimate is that it would have to be 300+ lbs or more. It is a very sturdy item.

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.

I would not exceed the recommended weight. But if you use this rack, be sure you anchor it to a stud

The specs should tell the weight. I was able to install it without help.It requires at least one stud. There is a mounting bar onto which the cabinet is latched

There are 5 shelves and all are full of dvds. Not sure of the weight, but I used the leftover shelf to have the cabinet lean back slightly so there was no concern about it tipping over. Hope this helps.

I have a Sony 55" TV weighing about 50 lbs. sitting on it with no issues. Even 80 lbs would be fine. The cabinet is very stable and sturdy.
