It was exactly as shown on the webpage.  Assembling it too a couple fo hour but only because I was very meticulous about following the steps and not in a hurry. It does take more than one person to do assemble as it is a big piece of furniture and the parts are heavy. I chose to have different highest of the inside shelves for storage and that is easy, and it is true that other reviews say the handles are slightly uneven. The TV on top is 55'. The final look is worth the effort, I am happy with the purchase as it is a firm and strong furniture.
