i am so happy with this TV console! it is solid, had straight foward instructions for assembly, and the storage is awesome! it took some searching online and thru local TV stores before i found this item that was within my price range and i would certainly buy it again and again!
Unit came in 2 large heavy boxes, was delivered to me at work in a fairly quick manner for a free shipping item. Took home to install, directions were fairly straight forward but still you need some basic mechanical apptitude. Went together fine with all the parts supplied, but be carefull not to loose any as there are NO SPAIRS, so if you drop a pin/screw you might have to find it. Unit works fine but if you leave the doors open for any period of time with the DVDs loaded they will sag and magnets to hold shut wont line up quite right again. Only complaint is that the unit came covered and filled with enough sawdust to make a general mess of my livingroom floor and enough static cling on it to take quite some time to clean up. If they blew off all the extra sawdust before shipping item would be perfect! Good deal no matter what, just make sure you have some pledge handy!
I was hesitant to purchase this item. I really didnt want to spend so much money and not see the item up close and personal. I am so glad that I did. I love this. It looks good in my livingroom. Thank you so much. My husband had it put together when I got home from work. He never mentioned anything about problems putting it together. I am just in aw over this.
I was impressed with the storage capacity, PRICE!!, and sleek look of this center and is why I wanted to buy it. I almost didnt because the reviews on assembly were a bit scary. I went ahead and ordered it and set up a night to have family over to help babysit while me and my husband tackled this project. He got home an hour before me and had it 90% complete by himself. So, assembly was super simple when following the directions and we have had no problems with the doors opening if they were filled with dvds (as I also read in reviews). It is completely full of DVDs, has our sound system, dvd player and gaming system sitting perfectly on it. LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!! and definitely cant beat that price!!!!
Ive only owned this TV console for a week, so I cant comment on the longevity of it. I purchased this for a small room that I am converting into a game room/den for my daughter. My husband owns a lot of games as well, so he was happy to have a nice, neat place to organize them. We were able to fit 3 game systems and a DVD player on the shelves. The backing that slides is a nice touch. We also purchased a large storage ottoman that we retrofitted with bins to hold our frequently used games and all of our controllers. It took us around 2.5 hours to put together. It is heavy. My husband placed a small box under the doors as support while he was installing the hinges. That was much easier than trying to hold them up and steady - they are quite heavy.
My advice is to lay out all wood pieces, identify them using the diagram and then label each board with a sticky note. This saved a lot of time as none of the boards are labelled.
Everything was packed extremely well in very heavy duty cardboard boxes.
This matches our shades of gray and silver game room perfectly. Very pretty.
A good, solid television stand. Its made out of some of that composite board, and it came with a few very minor dings in the surface (which is that vinyl-type sleeving that fits over the particle board--very durable, but not indestructible), but aside from that was in flawless condition.
Not difficult to assemble in the least. It takes a little while, though, as there are a lot of parts and its best to organize it a little before beginning assembly. Television is wall-mounted, but the stand fits nicely underneath and covers the wires running down to the various devices. The shelves are all adjustable using small, rubber-capped pegs, so you can move them up or down a few notches to accomodate DVDs, blu-rays, VHS tapes, or games.
Just pay attention when assembling the cabinet doors that swing out with their cubbys. As others have noted, the directions are a little vague (but easy to comprehend, you just have to use some observation and discretion) so its easy to accidentally have one of the shelf boards facing the wrong way, revealing the wood. Also, dont be discouraged if, during assembly, you notice the bottom base-board seems bowed in the middle and the feet dont all initially touch the floor, as everything more or less levels out after you put the whole thing together and load it with movies.
Its a very nice quiet piece that doesnt draw a lot of attention to itself or the devices its holding. The cabinets were what caught my eye, as they were designed so I could arrange my movies, games, 3D glasses, controllers, and peripherals so that I didnt have them over-lapping, forcing me to pull out the front rows to get to something I wanted that may be in the back. The handles have a nice, polished aluminum look, as do the legs, and the finish is a semi-gloss kind of black--again, you notice its there but it doesnt draw the eye (thus not distracting from the television, which should be the centerpiece anyway).
This console is awesome! So much storage! So nice ans big if we get anything bigger than a 47inch I feel that it will more than be able to hold it... HOWEVER, on the bad side the directions were horrible, unclear and the pieces were not labeled at al. If the company that made this had better directions then it would have gotten 5 stars.
I ordered this product for my brother for Christmas, I knew it would come later on January 3 but it didnt come till the 8th. Though he did not care, and he loves it! Took some time to put together but it looks great!
the quality of the product is not the greatest but it is very good. The customer service for the company is awesome. One of our doors was scratched when it came and they replaced the door with a great turn around.
I love this. It holds all of my dvds, blu-rays, and pc games. It also comfortably holds video gaming systems and a blu-ray player. Ive actually set this up below a projector so I cant say if it holds a tv well but I would say it is fairly sturdy. The feet underneath it are adjustable so if you put it against a wall for instance you can adjust it against the wall carpeting so it is flat. When it isnt flat then the drawers swing open and filled with dvds it can cause a quick mess, so make sure it is flat. Its plenty wide and good for looks. Good investment

What you see is what you get
