I think I still have a hernia from moving one of those heavy cabinet bastards. No wonder we just sat the new tv on it for a few months.


I bought a Sony FD Trinitron 36" in 1999 that took three guys to move upstairs. And that wasn't a "cabinet" TV.

Heaviest, most dense, TV I have ever moved. Had to be well over 200 pounds. eta-Just found a weight for it. 223 pounds.

My mom and her husband got a 36 or 38" Sony TV as a wedding gift. It was early 2000s I guess. That bitch definitely weighs over 120 lbs. It took me and him to move it last time.

Some people were getting rid of theirs back in 2009 or so and my wife's parents got the idea that I should go pick it up and bring it to them. The FIL was excited to upgrade to a flat screen in his bedroom.

I get there with my wife and I couldn't believe how heavy it was. I remember (unsuccessfully) trying to convince my wife to just buy them a new TV instead of dealing with it. My back was never the same.

Holy Jeebus, we had that TV.

I praise the day that it got wet in Katrina and was the last time me and my 5 homies had to ever move it — to the fricking curb.
