Freeson Glass 32-inch TV Stand

Overall an okay TV stand. Looks good and assembly was straightforward, or it would have been except for the fact that I had received (2 each) bent tie rods. The tie rods are what keep the decorative tube segments, that make up the legs of the stand, together. I had to bend the rods back into straightness in order to assembly everything. Would recommend better packaging to ensure that the tie rods don't arrive 'damaged'.

PRO: Good deal. Took longer to unwrap the parts than to put them all together! Easy to put together with the help of one other person, wouldve been tricky alone. Attractive enough that I decided to use as it as a coffee table and use my old coffee table as the TV stand. Glass shelves are sturdy! CON: The box it came in was large, unwieldy, very heavy. Bits of styrofoam got all over my living room; be careful when you unpack. May be somewhat high-maintenance with all that glass.

I am very happy with this tv stand. Delivery was quick, as usual. Stand was easy to put together. My 15 year old son actually did it all by himself. One small plastic cap that connects to the bottom of the metal leg was odd shaped/defective, but fortunately once you popped it into place you would never know it. My son uses it in his room for his TV and PS3. Stand is very sturdy and well made. It has an attractive curve in the glass in the front. It looks nice in his room.

I think the TV stand looks nice and is well-designed. The instructions were great except that they did not say which way the leg pipes needed to be placed. There is a recessed bar with a hole inside one end of the pipes. Once I assembled the stand, it was very sturdy and did not wobble at all. I wondered how it was going to turn out as I put it together as there was some wiggle in the leg assemblies. It is definitely consumer-grade, not industrial, but it is still strong. The only improvement I see (besides making it industrial-grade and correspondingly expensive) is to have it on wheels.
