This item is lovely! Definitely improved the look of our media center and our entire living room. It feels so much more homey and less like a collection of electronics and wires. There is enough space for our electronics, and the cabinets hide our kids toys while still making them accessible. It was easy to assemble, although it took a couple hours. There was one small spot of damage, but I can live with it because it's partially concealed and hard to notice. Overall, very happy with my purchase!
