GDLF 125-150 Gallon Fish Tank Stand, Heavy Duty Metal Aquarium Stand with Power Outlet and Cabinet for Fish Tank Filters and Accessories,72.8" L*18.9" W,2200LBS Capacity

If it were not for the few quality control issues and additional requirements for me to drill and fix small parts, I would have given this stand a five star review. At this price point, I am still saying this is a good product and I am happy about my purchase.I was skeptical based on the negative reviews; however, I was willing to risk it at the price point for a 2,000 lb capacity stand that was large enough for my new 125 gallon aquarium. Either upgrades have been made or the negative reviewers were not assembling the stand correctly.Once the bolts and screws are tightened, the unit is very stable and does not wobble as demonstrated in the negative video review. The only wood screws are for attaching the MDF/fiber board sides and attaching the power strip to these boards.There are also additional brackets that are installed that prevent sway side to side and front to back. Prior to installing these, there were no stability issues after fully tightening all the screws.Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase and I have not doubts about the ability of this stand to work for my aquarium. There are a few flaws or areas to improve that I have listed below.There were extra screws, bolts, and rolls of the anti-slip foam tape.The shelf supports screw into the legs instead of simply sliding in. This is a nice feature and makes the shelf very stable. The shelf itself has an external support beam that is mounted during assembly and has notches for the supports to slide into and stabilize the shelf.CONS: Limited quality control prior to shipping. The sides have the alignment holes mismatched. I had to drill a new pilot hole in the side to align with the metal side.The foam anti-slip tape comes up short on the long sides. The short middles are deliberately short to allow the longer front and back pieces to fit; however, these pieces were short a full side piece width to reach the end. I used the spare pieces to cut a small extension.Three holes were either not properly tapped/cut or misaligned. Two of them were only bad enough to need a little extra force to thread, then I backed out and used and new bolt/screw. One was so bad that I used force until the bolt stopped turning. Overall the stand is extremely stable and this one bolt did not cause any issues with stability.Not a negative thing, but I would personally have an alternate location for the power strip to mount and include an additional shelf. Since the power strip is mounted to the sides with screws, this can be done easily.If you need a heavy duty aquarium stand at a reasonable price, this is a great option.

I put this together myself without the help of my husband . This is very sturdy ! I needed a heavy duty stand for my 125 gallon saltwater tank since I was adding lots of sand and over 100 pounds of live rock . This is well made and well worth the money. And easy to put together !! Highly recommend

Very sturdy but potential safety hazard. However after assembly I saw something very concerning. Be very careful. The middle vertical panel is almost impossible to level, and the middle panel is positioned slightly higher than the left and right panels. This creates a potential pressure point for the tank to crack in the future. I am still trying to level it, perhaps I should return it to avoid potential disaster in the future.

Perfect, could not be happier. It’s mdf not chip particle board, extreme construction for the metal work, really easy to build and very very sturdy.

For the money, this is the best value on the market. Everything structural is metal. I saw a review about it using wood screws, but every screw going into metal was a machine screw. The doors are a pressed wood but it would be very easy to craft your own doors and use the pre drilled holes to connect to the structural part of the stand, if so desired. The stand I received is level and fish tank sits on it with no gaps between it and the stand. I would buy again if the wife let me get another 125 gallon! I had reservations about buying a fiber board stand that can’t get wet, and I have no concerns with this stand. I don’t think you could build your own for the price of this stand factoring in time, materials, tools and trips to the hardware store.

The media could not be loaded. I would haven’t given 5 stars if the instruction booklet was better. Some of the diagrams were not clear. They can do a LOT better.All the pieces were present in the box. It was packaged well for shipment.This stand seems really sturdy. Looks good!Took me hours to put together. Some mistakes were made but you can go back, take the screws out and fix the mistakes, easily enough. Haven’t added the aquarium, yet. A good buy, u hope. (When tank is in place).

I bought to stand because everyone cautions buyers about the wood stands that come with 125 gallon aquariums from retail stores. This stand will take a few hours to put together, but it is extremely well-made and should last you a lifetime compared to the wood stands that disintegrate once they get wet. If I could give it more than five stars, I would.

This is a great stand for my 125 gal tank. My tank fits perfectly on top and my sump fits perfectly in the bottom! I'm not sure about other reviews about the stand being wobbly.Maybe they didn't put it together correctly. It is very study and has many points of reinforcements! After I put the stand together, I had no doubt it could hold my 125 gal tank. Now I have my tank full of water for almost 4 weeks and no issues at all! Great stand! I'm very happy for it's sturdiness and also for how good it looks!
