Beautiful!! This is actually a surprisingly good quality TV Stand/media center for the price (around 130 at the time of writing this review). Of course, being that cheap, its made of particle board of not very high quality, but for what it is, its not bad.
Assembly wasnt too hard if you read the directions properly, and my hubby and I only took about 30/40 minutes to put it together (on a side note, assembling furniture is a great bonding activity for spouses! your mileage may vary on that, though.) Once assembled, it looks good and seemed reasonably sturdy (after adjusting the hardware, the doors hang evenly, too). The printed wood veneer wont exactly fool anyone, but hey, for the cost, thats what Id expect. At least none of it was peeling off on my unit.
However, despite my current praise, this unit has a rather unfortunate flaw. Pay very close attention to the measurements in the pictures, because when they describe it as low profile they arent kidding! Its so low to the ground that its no good for anything but the lowest platform bed, and for a living room, it still feels too low. The only use I could imagine it for is mounting a TV to the wall above it and just using it to storage components.
Well, overall quality is reasonable for the price, but do pay attention to the height of the unit as its freakishly low to the ground and may present issues with viewing angles.
Quality Okay, but Super Low.
