I wanted to have a free standing tower but it is to light weight

The stand is sturdy, and if need be, it can even mount to the wall with very little effort

I’m glad this is a standing one you can also hang it on the wall option

It is sturdy, I have it free standing against wall and have not had any problem of it tipping over like some reviewers have had

THIS STAND FELL OVER

I tried to load up 80 CDs, but the stand was leaning so much it could tip over any second.

While it is designed to be free standing, it's not too stable; it sways a bit, and one has to be very careful loading it, or walking near it.

On the up-side, the stand *was* easy to assemble (taking only 1 minute).

it looks like nice & sturdy stand, it can just sit on the floor or be mounted to a wall

It can't be free standing, so I returned it.

I reckon they would be a bit wobbly if they were used free standing due to their height.

Also you can mount it on a wall or leave it free standing.

It goes particularly well with modern or contemporary décor and it lasts forever (mine's about two or three years old already)
