The picture is deceiving, the glass shelf is actually floating out into the room far away from the wall

The picture is deceiving in the online information and it probably sticks out an additional 6 to 8 inches from the wall (beyond the shelf dimensions).

The pictures are very deceiving.

The picture is deceiving and, while the shelf is well-made and strongly constructed, it sticks out from the wall MUCH more than it looks like it would from the picture.

The picture is decieving and would not work well with a wall mounted TV because it does extend outwards.

I used this shelf to mount a Sony 8" Trinitron CRT TV that still has the best picture I have ever seen

On top of that the pictures are misleading
