The TV stand was exactly what I was looking for! You did have to assemble the entire thing but once it was put together, it looked great. The only real issues I have with it is the handles on the sliding glass rail, they do not stay on quit well as they slip a bit when you open and close the compartment you are getting to. I will say this as well, its a pretty sturdy piece of furniture, the UPS guy and I had to lug it in... so if you are looking for something that will more than likely not break and keep up your TV then this is it.
