Everett Espresso Plasma/ LCD Console

Rating

Once I finished putting the Everett Espresso Plasma/ LCD Console together, I was very pleased with the finished product. It really is very beautiful. However, there is very little "real" wood on the console. Basically, just the legs and two small support beams. Two of the legs were scratched; one leg was very bad. I was able to place those two legs in the back against the wall, but I am considering contacting the manufactuer for replacement legs. Assembly was a nightmare! There were no labeled parts AT ALL. In addition, all screws, and other small parts came in on big bag. Once I sorted through all the small pieces and figured out the console parts, I moved fairly quickly through the assembly process. I consider myself to be fairly handy, and I completed it alone in about 2 hours. It was frustrating, but doable. It would have been nice if the manufactuer took the assembler into account. Again, ultimately, this is a very nice piece, and compared to other consoles at this price point, it's a very nice value.

I thought the product was fair in quality. Three of the four legs were damaged. I would recommend this piece for someone starting out their new place. If you want something temporary, it would be a good fit. Also the inside of the draws are white which i thought was odd.

I purchased this for our media room and I wanted something that was inexpensive and functional. The room is used mostly by our children (teens) and I wanted the room to be comfortable but did not want to sink a lot of money into it. My mother visited and asked whether the piece was handmade! I guess that gives you a sense of how good it looks! A couple of the pieces had a few chips in the wood, but I was able to overlook that given the low cost of this item! I would highly recommend this console. It looks great in our media room and we do not have to really worry about wear and tear as we did not sink thousands of dollars into it. I had a handy man put it together for me and he completed the entire project in a couple hours. So far I have been very impressed with all of the items that I have purchased from Overstock.

The value was great for this product. It was a little darker than I thought it would be. Once I knew what I wanted and shopped online, Overstock.com had the best price and shipping! It was very easy to assemble. One of the legs was scratched, but I just put that leg toward the wall and applied the touchup marker supplied. Other than that everything else was great! This was my first time to shop here and I will definitely shop Overstock.com again.

The console arrived quickly to my home address and the single large box/package was inspected upon arrival to ensure that there were no openings/tears in the package that could have possibly damaged any of the parts/panels. I took my time to open and inspect its contents. It does comes with an instructions manual to help you assemble the console, and as others have mentioned having the parts marked for easier/faster assembly could've help a lot, although if you pay attention to the instructions clearly you should have no problem in assembling it. It took me 45 minutes to assemble it just to make sure I did not damage anything in the process (many screws and other small parts) Now, once assembled the console looks very nice and sturdy, however I had to 'play' a bit with some of the parts (2,or 3) as they came with some small damages that after installed in the correct positions the damages could not be seen. If you run into problems with parts there is a toll free number for a customer service center to request new parts, if necessary, which luckily I did not have to use. The most important parts/components to maintain good console rigidness are made out of real wood, so this is good to make sure that the console keeps the intended weight and shape for a long period of time. If you want a console made in its entirety out of wood look somewhere else and be prepared to pay a lot of money for it. So, for the price paid this console is great.
