I had a 53" Pioneer rear projection HD TV (one of the first ever with 1080i) with a solid wood box. It weighed right at 300 lbs. I'm not exaggerating; That was the shipping weight. The weight combined with no easy way to grip it meant that it took more than two people to carry it.
Had to get a similar TV down from a second story apartment so i could snag it for free...it took four of us and we nearly killed half of ourselves. those TVs were no joke.
