Is this strong enough to keep a tv from falling over if the tv stand it is on is being rocked/shaken by a energetic toddler?

It is very sturdy, however if the stand itself can be rocked or shaken I would secure the stand as well. We have a very large tv on a stand close to the ground, our toddler can pull and shake on the TV and it holds well. I'm not sure I entirely understand your situation, but I hope this helps!

Yes it will, if it is put together correctly and is set on a flat stable surface. It is a little tall for a TV stand so I would attach it and the TV to the wall for a little more stability especially if small children are around.

I would be reluctant to use it that way. It might be able to hold the weight but I'm not sure it would be stable unless you put a lot of weight on the bottom shelf. Also the shelves are wire. I would think a solid shelf would give more stability for a tv

Mine is holding up a 19" LCD television. It is very sturdy and looks great.

It has a wide base so it is quite stable. I would be more concerned about the child falling if they stood up.

Yes. It's very stable and easily supports this light weight (compared to a plasma) TV.

It would depend on the weight, but this piece is pretty sturdy, especially because it's skinny. I wouldn't have second thoughts on putting a tv on top.

Yes. It is very sturdy. We have a larger tv on it and although it sticks out beyond the sides, I dont worry about it falling or breaking.

It doesn't sway...actually very sturdy. I would be hesitant if kids are going to around it though.

They're might be minimal shaking, but the base is wide enough to keep it from tipping over. My 4yr old climbs on it when my back is turned and it holds just fine.

I wouldn't do it. If it starts going off-center as you are swiveling it you may not notice after several weeks and it could go off-balance. If you have kids I definitely wouldn't do it. Also, you should check the weight capacity of the unit. I think this one was about 100 lbs. There are ones from the same company that hold up to 250 lbs. If the base on your tv is 37 inches, it could easily be over 100 lbs.

No. It's very sturdy. My kid pulls up constantly and it's never tipped over.

It should hold it ok - very sturdy. The only thing you need to know is how wide the stand is vs your TV because you don't want the TV hanging off the end. Some stands will tell you how big a TV it can hold.

The straps just hold the TV from falling forward. It can be knocked backwards or turned (as my little one likes to do) in either direction.

Yes it is.. If its a younger child though I would bolt it to the wall.. its just flimsy enough that I wouldn't trust it around kids under 6 without it being braced. ( Personally use this for socks, undershirts,etc)

I feel it is strong enough. I have a 55", 50 lb. TV on mine, so I can't say for sure, but the stand is very sturdy.

My TV stand is extremely well built. See no problem with glass unless your toddler is into hammers...
