This is GORGEOUS. Its extremely sturdy, and I put it together by myself in maybe 20 or so minutes. Now, the glass panels are HEAVY, so I don’t recommend that but I managed. I have a 50” flat screen centered on it and it looks REALLY good. I like how the goldbrushed brass finish matches most gold products that are listed here. It’s very cohesive. I love the TV stand. I really do. It seems worth the cost, but I’ll see how it stands up. Over all, I love it.
