As other reviewers have stated, this is a very sturdy TV stand, the build materials are of a very high quality. The weathered grey finish looks great, the only negative are the drawer handles; they are plastic and I expected them to be metal. The handles do not take away from the final look, I was just very surprised by their material choice. Just a note, if you live in a condo building or apartment, make sure you have a second person around to help you get the delivery box up the stairs, it isn't something you can carry alone. Also, the instructions indicate that putting together the TV stand will take 2 people 40 minutes. I was able to build the stand alone, but it did take a while. Ultimately,  I am very happy with this product and would definitely select it again if I had to do it all over again. 

Pros: durable, great value, up-scale look
Cons: plastic drawer handles
