Customer Reviews
Shelves tilt precariously at even 1/4 weight limit
The 3-shelf Omni-mount is useless. It is rated in the documentation at 30 lbs per shelf (90 lbs total). However at even a quarter of that weight, the shelves tilt downwards at the front under the weight - unsafe, and looks stupid. An amp on a shelf which is approaching the weight limit has a significant tilt.
As other reviewers note, the cable covers aren't able to cover more than a couple of cables.
The concept and appearance of this is nice, However it simply doesn't deliver.

Beatiful and easy to install
I just bought a new flat panel television and chose the OmniMount Cantilever UCL-X to put it up on the wall. This TV mount came highly recommended by another customer and I know why - it's awesome!
These shelves seemed like a natural choice after selecting the mount.
My only complaint is that one of the cable covers (the wide plastic pieces that cover the middle) came damaged. To OmniMount's credit, I wrote an email and received a phonecall within 24 hours. The Customer Service person I spoke with was great and they sent a replacement right away. Hassle free!
They also committed to reviewing their shipping practices - all in all, a great experience with the company itself.
The shelves were easy to install (especially after carefully walking throuhg the Cantilever direction since mounting both units to the wall were practically identical) and the finished product looks great.
Elegant and modern!
Where they didn't satisfy me perfectly was the 30lbs limit for each shelf. Because they're tempered glass they have a weight restriction. My intention for the shelves were HD Receiver, DVD player, Home Theatre receiver. But my Home Theatre receiver is a bit of a brute and it weighs in at 28lbs. I tried it there but the shelf dipped down a little and it looked goofy. Plus I was afraid that after hooking up all the cables that would add more that 2lbs of extra weight and then someone walking over and putting their hand on the unit might crash that shelf. I have no evidence that the shelf would actually break right at 30lbs since the support is metal but my mind ran through that scenario.
So I moved my receiver down to my coffee table sized sub-woofer and moved my center channel speaker up to the shelf. It looks great!
All is working beautfiully and, as promised, once the cables are hidden behind the cable channel guides the unit is gorgeous!
I would highly recommend this shelf system for anyone using modern components that won't tax the shelves (20lbs or less) as it looks fantastic and is quality made AND the company is great!

its okay
this mount is ok. it looks nice. was pretty difficult to get the wires hidden behid these cheap plastic coverings. if you have a lot of wires, more than four, i'd suggest finding something different.

Fairly easy to hang on the wall. Little tricky fitting all cables through but overall very happy with the quality and looks.

Tricky but nice result - good value in the end.
The TRIA system per specs is not for someone who has heavy AV gear as each shelf is rated at 30 Lbs Our Yamaha receiver weighs in at high 20's and the shelf is adequate without any cause for concern. The system does do a very good job for those of us with just a few components in the system. The wiring covers are a little frustrating at first but once you figure out a couple tricks they are workable. Only system specs to check closely for your application is the shelf weight rating, and the shelf depth. The wiring cover takes about 1" of depth in the middle, Luckily for me the cover lines up with unused inputs on my receiver or I would have needed a bunch of right angle patch cords to keep the receivers front feet on the glass shelf.
Wire management tricks for this system:
Don't plan on just tucking the wires behind the covers. Install on the wall and set the shelves where you will want them and test fit your components. Once you have the shelves placed remove all your componets and start running the wires with just enough length sticking out at each shelf to allow you to plug them in to each device; keep the wire bundles tidy and "inline" as any weaving of the wires makes the bundle fatter. Bundle the wires with wire ties, or similar products. I personally recommend "spiral wrap" sold at radio shack (or at amazon) as it is easy to install, and is easily removable but still holds the bundle secure. Just use a couple inches every foot or so to keep it tidy.
Once you have your 2 bundles together (one on each side) I suggest you then determine where your cover pieces are going to go. The clips that the covers snap onto can be installed anywhere there isn't a shelf bracket. If possible try to install the clips near the end of each piece so the seams line up closely and firmly. The plastic channels on the back of the covers can be cut on the back to allow you to take wires across to the other side, you just need to ensure that a mounting clip won't be nearby. Likewise if you are taking a bunch of cables out the side at any given shelf, there is some plastic on the back of the cover that you can cut out to make that easier as well, all of this cutting on the back wont be visible when installed.
We are happy with the finished result, our main objective was to get our components up out of reach of our button infatuated two year old boy as he was constantly poking at the receiver and PS3. I would say to expect installation time with all the wire management involved and such to be around 3 hours to take your time and do it right.
Word of caution - Ominimount would not sell me an additional shelf, as they said the system is only rated for 100 pounds and a 4th shelf would allow the user to exceed the systems rating (much like putting more than 30 on a 30 pound rated shelf that they give you). So three shelves is it, but there would be nothing stopping you from installing more if you could get a hold of them. If the unit is stud mounted with good hardware I don't see where exceeding 100 Pounds would be an issue.
I was fortunate that our DVR was shallow enough on the shelf that I could put a small power strip behind it and only run one power cord up to the bottom shelf. The plasma and other devices then get to this strip which is on the back of the bottom shelf, hidden out of view by the DVR.
