Coventry Large Antique Black Media Stand

Rating

My old T.V. died and the new flat screen would not fit in the armoire that I was using. I looked around and found either huge wall units or very modern ugly and mostly cheap looking tables. My house is not large so the wall units were not an option. When I saw this piece I was not quite sure and my husband was not sure about the black color,but after having spent hours and hours looking on the internet and in the malls I decided to give it a try. It arrived in a timely fashion and I was about to start the dreaded chore of puttig it together........SUPRISE!!, it was not a chore. In fact after many years of putting these things together, this is one of ,if not the best piece I have ever worked on. The instructions were clear, holes all in the right place,and no missing parts. The end result was a beautiful piece of furniture that looks like it came from a high end store.I could not be happier. The black color and finish are gorgeous and the price was more than reasonable. Thanks overstock!

After doing extensive research, I was surprised by how many overpriced, oversimplified media stands were on the market today. It seemed as if many people were paying more for their stands than they were for their televisions. Overstock provided a low cost alternative that was worth the investment.The shipping was swift, although my package arrived with major damage to the corners. Luckily, the foam interior protected the damage from reaching the product. On the subject of foam, there was a lot of it. It took me hours just to clean the mess after unpacking it all. My first reaction was that this product truly comes in pieces. Prepare yourself for putting every imaginable piece together. The instructions helped, although there is still room for improvement. The finished product was great. More importantly than my satisfaction was my wife's, who intermittently interjects that "the media stand turned out great".

This looks great in our living room. A little difficult to put together - took two of us about an hour. It arrived a little banged up, but in overall good condition. Nothing that couldn't be fixed with a little bit of black shoe polish. My only real complaint is that the center shelves are not tall enough or adjustable. My stereo receiver fits, but there is no room for it to breathe, so it gets a little hot.

This piece arrived very quickly and was easy to assemble. It is made of good quality wood and was in excellent shape when we recieved it. It looks great and is a wonderful value when compared to ready made media stands I have seen in furniture stores and in catalogs. We are very pleased with the purchase.

This media stand is worth every penny! Shipping was fast, assembly was fast (took my husband 45 minutes) and the finished product looks WONDERFUL! It looks like something that we paid much more for. We love the antiqued look. I have been so pleased with this product.
