cheap TV standCan Cheap TV Stands Handle Two Little Boys?

Back when I was in college, I had a decent sized 22 inch TV. This was back in the 90’s, so 22 inches was decent at the time. I had a small, cheap TV stand to hold it; this cheap TV stand was just two metal shelves with two wired metal U’s to hold them together. It worked fine, as I wasn’t touching it at all except to put VHS tapes on the bottom shelf. I kept this TV, it’s still in our bedroom, and cheap TV stand up until we got kids. Before we had kids, my wife and I were able to upgrade to a nicer 32 inch TV. We got it back in 2002, so it still had a picture tube. Let me tell you, it was HEAVY! I used to lift weights, and I still had trouble lifting this TV. As a pure weight, it wasn’t something I couldn’t handle, but the shape and size made it difficult. My old cheap TV stand could still handle this 32 inch TV, although just barely.

Jump ahead a couple years, and add two little boys. My kids, for some reason, love just running into the TV screen. I don’t mean walking into it; they start at the couch and run, full force, into the TV screen. I noticed that the spot welds holding the cheap TV stand together were starting to come apart. I had to start looking into some quality TV stands, but at a reasonable price; I also wanted a new TV, a flat panel screen. My brother had trouble finding a wall mount to fit his TV, so I knew it would be harder to find a cheap TV stand, so I started there. That’s where I came across the Walker Edison Regal 4-in-1 TV Stand with Mount.

Mount Your TV in 4 Different Ways

When you’re buying a TV stand, one of the main features you look for, beyond price, and quality, is how will it handle your TV? Most TV stands lock you into a single position. If you buy a TV stand where you place the TV on the top of the structure, that’s it; that TV stand only allows you to place the TV on top.

That’s where the Walker Edison Regal 4-in-1 TV Stand with Mount shines. It’s not locked into a specific method of displaying your TV; as the name implies, it is a 4-1 TV stand, with a mount. The four different ways you can display your TV are:

  • Mounted directly to the stand.
  • Mounted to the wall.
  • Placed on top of the stand itself
  • Place on top of the stand, detach the mount to use with another TV in another location

The versatility of the Walker Edison Regal 4-in-1 TV Stand with Mount allows you to choose between these four different options. You’re not locked into a certain display. If you chose to mount your TV on the wall, but don’t like it, you have the option to try the other three options.

Tough Metal Frame With Wooden Panels

Most cheap TV stands are just pieces of metal fashioned together to hold your TV set. They aren’t designed to take appearance into account. Not so with the Walker Edison Regal 4-in-1 TV Stand. It is constructed with metal frames that will support up to 250 pounds, enough to hold even the older and larger TVs. A solid hardwood front covers the solid metal frame, so it can easily give a more friendly appearance instead being a simple piece of metal in your living room.

The black powder coated metal frames form three storage shelves. To enhance the appearance of the TV stand, three 8 mm thick glass sheets support items on the shelves, while the metal frames allow strong support.

Mount Any TV On Your Wall

When flat panel TVs started to appear on store shelves, buyers had to really search and be extremely savvy when it came to purchasing a wall mount. Not all wall mounts would work with all mountable TVs. You had to mix and match to find a wall mount for your flat panel TV.

The Walker Edison Regal 4-in-1 TV Stand comes with a Universal hardware wall mount. This means that any 60 inch wide screen, or smaller, will fit in the wall mount. A TV’s screen size is measured by measuring the screen diagonally. Any 60 inch wide screen TV, weighing 150 pounds or less will fit.

Another great feature about the Universal hardware wall mount is that it allows for the TV to be moved and adjusted for better viewing. The wall mount allows for the TV to be turned left or right. It can also be tilted either up or down by 15 degrees. By allowing these adjustments, the owner can adjust their mounted TV for the best possible viewing experience.

What Should You Expect to Pay?

The Walker Edison Regal 4-in-1 TV Stand with mount normally retails around $599. I have seen it sold for as low as $299. The cheapest I’ve seen it was $265 on Amazon, but with a limited amount available. Amazon also offers free shipping on selected products, so that might further help your savings.

Any Complaints?

I found very few complaints for this TV stand on the Internet. There was 1 issue where there was a wobble, but after reading the issue, the owner fixed the problem himself by tightening the assembly. The only other issues I could find were when owners wanted more room for their existing audio pieces (surround sound system or speakers).

Where Can You Buy the Walker Edison Regal 4-in-1 TV Stand?

You can buy this quality TV stand from Amazon. At the time of this review, Amazon was advertising two different prices. There was a $34 price difference between the two, however the higher price offered free shipping. Depending upon your location and shipping costs, you might actually save some money if you took the higher price with the free shipping offer.
