We received this unit a few days ago, and my husband put it together last night. He is experienced at assembling items like this. It was a lot of work, but everything was in good condition, every piece needed was there, and the instructions were very good. He's a bit sore today! But very, very pleased with the unit.

We needed the TV up high so that it would be above our handsome dog walking around the livingroom. We needed it to fit a corner. And we needed space for speakers, DVR, DVD and a few other things. Everything fit with room to spare.

The unit was well packed. One great surprise is that our remote controls work better now. The pieces are arranged so that nothing blocks anything else, and we were not able to arrange them NEARLY as well before receiving this unit.

A TV stand is a great idea! If this one fits your situation and you have someone who can put it together, it is terrific!

When this unit arrived with the carton badly damaged on one end, I held my breath. Not to worry. It was very securely protected inside the carton and was in pristine condition. I have had previous experiences with RTA furniture, some of them not so good and I have to say this one was the best. I assembled this by myself in about two hours. If you have no experience with RTA furniture or are not very strong, get help with this as it is very heavy. The instructions were straight forward and fairly easy to follow. The parts were all there and went together very well. This unit has a lot of solid wood in it, is very sturdy and is a nice addition to my living room. I would have given it 5 stars, but I was a little disappointed with the finish on the top of the unit. It seems a little "milky" in places.

Item arrived quickly and items were well-protected for shipping. This piece took me most of a Saturday to put together by myself but with help would probably go together in an hour or two. This height tv stand was hard to find but was perfect for the corner we're using. The stand looks like a higher-end piece of furniture. It's very sturdy and the color is just as described.

I can't believe how nice this unit looks for the price we paid for it. The exterior pieces are all solid wood, and the pieces that are not are still sturdy. Ours is not as orange/brown as the one in the photo, it matches really well with the burgundy curtains in our living room. It was fairly simple to assemble (I assembled it within 2 hours, including the time to read directions), and everything fit together perfectly. We have a 47 inch plasma on the top, and it's just the right size. There were no drawbacks to this unit. I had a hard time locating a unit with three spaces for our Blu-ray player, cable box, and our speaker receiver, this stand fits the bill, plus we have room for our smaller speakers and cable modem in the top shelf. It's taller than most units, which is nice, instead of looking down at the picture, you are looking even or just a bit up. Expedited shipping was free with our Prime membership, which has paid for itself many times over already. All in all, we could not have picked a better TV stand.

I will upload a few customer photos, but wanted to get this review in now. Let me start by saying that I'm a pretty careful shopper. I research, check all my options, etc. before I make a purchase. I went to 9 brick and mortar stores from economy to high end and could not find something that would work for my room and would meet the equipment needs I had. I was very hesitant to order a furniture item online for the obvious reasons of not being able to examine the materials and quality and take my own measurements. After seeing this unit on Amazon, I did some additional checking online. The ratings were all pretty good and spot on.

First of all, shipping from Amazon is a steal. I have Amazon prime and paid $3.99, ordered it Tuesday evening and received it on Thursday. This unit weighs over 100# and I've never seen better packing. Each piece was protected and even the hardware was in shrink wrap packing to make each piece easy to identify. The instructions were easy to follow and the only tools you need are the allen wrench that comes with the hardware and a phillips screwdriver. It took me a couple of hours to put together, but I was dawling watching tv the entire time.

The top, sides and doors are solid wood, not a thin vaneer. The back and interior shelves are laminate. The open section in the middle comes with 2 adjustable shelves and the sides each have one adjustable shelf. Once the unit is put together it is very solid. It is nice that it is taller than the average stand, so it fits a receiver, dish tv box, blu ray, center channel sound bar and I have my turntable on top. The sides have plenty of room for DVDs, CDs or whatever.

Overall, I'd say this unit is nicer than some I saw in the stores that were $1600.

I really like this corner tv stand. It is an attractive piece of furniture for the price. I was fearful that it would appear cheap looking but just the opposite is true. Putting it together wasn't all that difficult, but it does help to have two people. I am very happy with how the stand fits so perfectly in the corner space. I would reccommend this corner stand to my friends.

I have to say right away that I love this tv stand, and all in all it is something I would recommend to anyone looking for something with lots of room and style.
There were a couple issues though; first off, when I received it, the box was slightly damaged, which sadly made a couple of minor dents in the wood, but not bad enough to where I would send it back, most of the damage was on parts that arent seen.
Also, I would strongly suggest that this is a 2 man job at putting together. I did it by myself and it took me 3 hours :/
The only thing I really didnt like was that some of the holes were missing where you put one slab of wood together with another. So I had to make do, and drill the holes myself, which was a small inconvenience, but once it was all together, it was sturdy and fit nicely.
In my opinion, aside from the very small problems I had, I love it.

Easy to assemble. Instructions unclear at some points, but easy to figure out. Doesn't look like I assembled it myself.

Would recommend to anyone.

I searched all over Amazon, as well as many other sites and stores and finally decided on this TV table. It is absolutely beautiful. All the pieces were there and it was packaged so great that there were no scratches, or dents, or anything wrong at all. It is a darker color than the picture but it is a much darker and richer looking piece of furniture. I am so pleased with my purchase.Wide Flat Panel Tallboy Crendenza.

When we finally surrendered to buying a large format HD flat screen TV we had to tear out our built in book cases and needed a proper sized entertainment center to replace them squeezed between the fireplace and wall corner. We live in a medium sized western town but no store stocked what we needed so it was back to the internet. The unit we ordered from Amazon fit perfectly in the space, looked good and was easy to install with a little patience and thorough reading of the assembly directions. All the hardware was separately packaged and identified and all of the wood pieces were carefully wrapped and coded. As a matter of fact I have never seen a DIY piece of furniture that was so carefully designed for ease of assembly. It took 4 or 5 hours to put together but could have been done more quickly if I had not taken my time doing so. It went together perfectly with no damaged or missing parts and looked like it had just come out of an expensive store at three times the price. One small complaint is that each side of the back is open and any connecting wires to the equipment hanging down are visible from the front. This could be eliminated by adding panels on the back similiar to those covering the center. Really pleased with the quality and utility.
