Given this, there are limited options (especially affordable ones) out there and I decided to purchase the Salamander. Below are just some thoughts:Pros:- very modular with lots of configuration options.- able to support the weight of my equipment (amp is 27 kg)- aesthetically looks beautiful when fully assembled...needed some finesse with cable management thoughCons:- the cherry finish is not quite cherry...not even close to the cherry finish of my speakers- some of the shelves look like the "cherry stain" was barely applied (see image)...how did that pass QA???- 2 of the steel rods have signs of corrosion on them (out of the box). One is significant and difficult to hide- lack of cable management.In the end, all the "cons" are aesthetics (excluding cable management which is a design consideration) and can be remedied during the construction of the shelves and rods. For the price that is being charged, a little more attention can be used. However, if you are looking for a unit with allows for flexible shelving configuration and need to support heavy A/V equipment, the Salamander will work ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product with amazing support and warranty! *by on Reviewed in the United States 30 June 2026* I purchased this (5 tier, Walnut (A5/W)) 11 years ago, it's high quality, sturdy, and aesthetically pleasing. I've loved it. Recently a bit of rust started to appear on the threaded rod. I contacted their support to see if the lifetime warranty covered it, I really wasn't expecting much based off of experiences with other brands - but their support and warranty are awesome - they sent me replacement hardware at no cost. I really, really appreciate this, I wouldn't have been able to restore it if it wasn't for their lifetime warranty. I definitely will buy from Salamander again! ## Frequently Bought Together - Salamander Designs A3/B Archetype Audio/Video Shelf, 3.0 - Black - Neoteck Digital Turntable Stylus Force Scale Gauge 0.01g/5.00g Blue LCD Backlight for Tonearm Phono Cartridge - Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab - Original Master Record Inner Sleeves (50pk) - MOFI MFSL --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/747201187-salamander-a3-b-archetype-3-0-black](https://www.desertcart.no/products/747201187-salamander-a3-b-archetype-3-0-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
