As I opened the boxes one thing really impressed me and that was how well it was packaged. All pieces were there and no scratches, dented corners or scuffs. Directions were pretty good but not great. It took us 2 days to put it together (after discovering the drawer slides in the picture of the directions were backwards) and a couple other glitches in the instructions. Patience is a must! Now that it is all put together, it really is a beautiful piece of furniture and the hinges and drawer slides are good quality. You wouldn't know it came out of box.
THIS IS A GREAT ENTERTAINMENT CONSOL. IT SLEEK, STURDY AND GREAT LOOKING...A MUST FOR MORE MODERN DECOR...LOTS OF COMPLIMENTS...HAVE HAD IT SEVERAL MONTHS AND NO COMPLAINTS...IT DOES NOT GET OLD LOOKING...LIKE IT MORE AND MORE AS TIME GOES BY...I CONFESS THE LEGS LOOK CHEAP AND ARE NOT CHROME LIKE THE HANDLES BUT YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH IT DUE TO ITS MODERN LOOK...OVERALL A REAL WINNER AND WORTH EVERY PENNY...

The furniture is a great buy for the money. We were so very pleased with the quality of the wood used in construction. The instructions were very helpful and a necessity for assembly. The assembled piece looks sleek and doesn't overpower the room.
The final result of this product is surely a stunner! A wonderful addition to any living or media room. However, the assembly process was VERY VERY long and tiring. It took my husband and I the entire Satureday to put it together. We are happy with the finished product but we should have read the review earlier and paid someone to do it for us. I lost 2 lbs just by helping yesterday. lol...maybe it is a good way to shed some pounds. anyway, I still highly recommend it to everyone!! from a happy but very tired customer in New York City.
Our TV looks so much larger! Shipping was only 3 days however it was missing a hinge. We still have not recieved the part. Maybe in todays mail. It took my husband most of the day to put together. He was glad I was there to help hold it while he assembled. We love the way it looks and would buy again.
When I first got this, I thought it was nice, but didn't really realize how much it would grow on me over time. After 6 months, I love it! It took hours and hours and lots of patience to put together, but it was worth it. Have someone help you, or pay someone else to do it. It probably won't be something you'll finish in one day.....the door rollers for the top 3 sections were the most difficult thing. But I love it. Love, Love, Love it!!! Ahem, can you tell that I was happy with this unit?!
This is a beautiful, high quality piece of furniture with ample space for media storage that does take some time assembling (but it's easy). However, this unit is NOT properly designed for a real A/V system. Because of the assembly for the sliding doors on top, a standard sized receiver does not fit unless you take the door off. We have 6 components that we need stored in here (DVD, stereo, receiver, center channel speaker, blue ray player and gaming system), and they do not all fit, even though the compartments are very wide, because they are too narrow height-wise. We still have to stack components on top of the unit. Also, the ventilation is not very good--our blue ray player really heats up and we will have to rig up a fan in there to air it out. That being said, if you are planning to use this for the basics -- less than 3 components, no receiver, this is more than adequate which is why I am only giving it 2 stars but still recommending it.
This is a beautiful piece - exactly what we wanted. However, it took my husband and I 6 hours to put together. We are usually really good and efficient at assembling furniture from instructions but this one had many, many pieces and was quite complicated. If you have someone you could trust to assemble, it would be worth spending the money to have them do it.
I just love my new TV console! I had spent months looking for a unit that would hide all the unsightly TV/stereo components and was disappointed in what I found at the local furniture stores. They were all overpriced and had open shelves. Overstock's entertainment unit is 100% rubberwood with the exception of drawer bottoms and unit back. The wood is beautiful - a rick dark brown. The construction is excellent, with great attention to detail. The drawers and top compartments open and close smoothly, and they line up perfectly. Adjusting was a bit tricky though. The only down side is the lenght of time it took my husband and me to assemble it - about 6 hours. Having read prior reviews, I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I'm glad I made the purchase because it's well worth the time we put into assembly. Because of the generous width - about 80 inches - it looks perfect with a 52" flat screen LCD TV!
I was surprised just how beautiful this furniture was. Its rich color and quality was more than I expected. Although a bit challenging and time consuming to put together, the price was well worth it. I would definately recommend this unit. It is difficult to find such a long media center. I am thrilled with this furniture!!
We agree with the first review. This item is packaged very, very well. It came in a timely manner (6 days)The quality of this piece is excellent. Once put together, it looks like a show room piece of furniture. The only down side was the poor instructions regarding assembly in certain areas. It took my husband about 3 hours to put this piece together. He has assembled many pieces of furniture in the past, but this one was a challenge. Once done though, it is a very cool piece of furniture!! I would definitely recommend it.
This is a beautiful piece of furniture. It is a nice heavy piece of furniture that has a gorgeous dark color. It has a modern and sleek look that will look good for years. The storage space is great. My flat screen tv looks wonderful setting on it. You cannot beat the price for the quality and look. It is difficult and time consuming to assemble. But it is worth the trouble.
