Aristo 2-drawer Entertainment Unit

Rating

Another wonderful experience with Overstock. The entertainment center arrived very quickly and in flawless condition. Looks more expensive than it is and really gives the living room a more polished look. My husband is great at assembling so it was a breeze for him to put together but I gave that aspect a 4 since I know not everyone will find it so easy. Highly recommend. I also have the Aristo buffet.

Having read the reviews I wasn't surprised by the difficulty in assembly but by taking my time, analyzing and modifying the instructions, I was successful in completing the job. When I reached Step 5, I used the fixed shelf to provide stability while turning the unit on end using two rented clamps to pull the side panels (C & D) and Division Panels (E & F) together before tightening the Camlocks. After completing one end, I turned the unit over to the opposite end and followed the same procedure. I thought the unit was beautiful and unique in its design from viewing the pictures provided and haven't been disappointed and would like to add the chest of drawers along with the bed table I purchased along with the Entertainment Unit. The 46" Sony Bravia LCD I purchased earlier this week looks terrific on the Unit.

i ordered this entertainment center to be able to put my audio and visual stereo components away in the shelves. The entertainment center is nice in appearance but the shelves are two small to be able to store standard sized stereo equipment. I have a blue ray dvd player that will not fit on the shelves inside the unit. It took about 3 hours to put together. I'm keeping it now that its together and I put the components on the open shelf just below the table surface but I'm disappointed in its usability. Should have been much more for the price.

My wife is impressed by this console. We have a lot of custom made furniture in our house from my father in-law so we are spoiled with solidly built quaility furniture. This unit was perfect for what we needed. It was easy to assemble, looks great and fits our AV equipment. I would mention that the open space is 4" tall and slim AV equipment fits perfect in this space. I gave it one less star on workmanship because one of the top locking connectors would not engage to it's post. It does not hinder our enjoyment of the furniture and it is not enough to send for a new part. I worked around this problem and we are enjoying our new furniture.

I've been looking for a nice entertainment center for a while. The ones at the local furniture stores weren't all that impressive and pretty expensive in comparison to this one. This first caught my eye because of the color of the wood and the design. I then read reviews on it and everyone was saying how heavy and sturdy it was and that it was made of rubberwood, not that cheap particle board that you find in others. When I finally decided to purchase it, it was out of stock. I flagged it and a few weeks later, I received an email saying that it was now available. Before I ordered it, I signed up to become an Overstock member so I could receive an additional discount, but ended up ordering it on Presidents Day and received an even larger discount. A few days later, Overstock had its birthday celebration, which included a better discount than what I received before and they even credited my account for the difference after I emailed them about it without any hassles. It took just a few days to deliver with the free, basic delivery option and it showed up in two large/heavy boxes. It took me about 3 or 4 hours to assemble it on my own. I took my time so I wouldn't mess it up and have to re-do anything. All the holes are marked and it can be done with just a screw driver, but a power drill makes some areas easier. I would definitely recommend this product along with Overstock.com's top notch custormer service.
