I was so looking forward to this TV stand. It would have worked perfect for my room. My husband, who is a meticulous and very experienced maintenance man, started to assemble the unit and very shortly thereafter called me into the room to see what was happening. As you can see by the pictures as he was screwing in some of the hardware the wood was just falling apart. I know you cannot expect a lot from particle board but this was very disappointing and there was nothing that could be done but to return the unit. We took the box apart so we could lay all the pieces on top of one another, put all the hardware in a baggie and duct taped the box together again. does do home pickups so it was easy to return.
The assembly instructions were not the easiest to follow. It took over an hour to assemble. The work okay but we had to re-tighten a few of the screws after rolling the cabinet. It looks nice and gets the job done.
Very nice looking unit, didnt take long to install. However, the filing cabinet drawer would not sit flush no matter how many different things I tried.. very disappointed
The unit wasnt difficult to install. Some instructions were vague so you have to look closely at it when putting together. It is a little bit smaller than I had imagined being 3/4 inches higher would have been better. My only issue is that a part was missing from my order. I submitted an inquiry on the companies website, Im not sure if its them or that will send a replacement so I am waiting to hear from them.
Other than that it is a nice drawer/TV stand storage.
can you please assist me with receiving the missing part?
Thanks,
Its nice but wow was this a pain to assemble or what?? It took me hours! When a cabinet costs this much I expect it to be easier to assemble. I wouldnt have purchased if I had known. Dont believe the reviews saying its easy to assemble - it isnt.
Price is unbeatable and the final product is a good looking cabinet except the that are not working properly on mine. The number of pieces come in the package is kind of overwhelming!! Instruction paper is actually a 24 pages notebook and if you are handy enough, it will take you couple of hours to assemble the cabinet.
They actual wood of this is very heavyweight and sturdy which is nice. But some of the pieces are not quality. The re flimsy plastic and wont turn with the weight of the shelf on them so they are essentially useless. Not one, but 3 of the screws snapped in half while being put into the thing, I have never seen metal screws snap right in half like these did. The instructions and assembly was not easy. Instructions refer to pieces by numbers, but their are no numbers on the actual pieces.
I like the actual piece of furniture once it was finally assembled, its exactly what I needed, hence the 3 stars. But I would not buy again, I never want to go through the process of assembling it again.
Like many other buyers, the predrilled holes for the TV stand portion were not aligned. I had to drill my own holes for the TV stand. Also for $150, I expected better hardware and board assembly. Doesnt have a sturdy feel to it. For the quality and other elements, I would have been more satisfied paying $99, maybe $125 instead of $150. However, it does do the job for my home office.
So I would give it 5 stars but it had two broken parts that I had to work around. First, one of the hinges was bent. Second, the hints for the file drawer were not separated. I could not properly screw that drawer together and so it’s going to be perpetually bad (i don’t have a level so it’s slightly off), fortunately I could use my hammer to unbend the other hinge. Would I buy it again? Probably not, I would pay the extra $20 for the next cheapest piece of furniture like this and not worry about broken pieces.

Looks nice and gets the job done but confusing assembly instructions

Nice, except filing drawer
Very nice looking unit, didnt take long to install. However, the filing cabinet drawer would not sit flush no matter how many different things I tried.. very disappointed
My order came with a missing part

PITA to assemble!!

instruction is 24 pages

Overpriced for what it is

Good, but came with broken pieces
