The TV stand came with a large crack on the center rail which is noticeable as it right in the center so I covered it with some of the stickers that came to hide the screw holes. There was also a crack on the piece that was the top shelf which again was noticeable but since it was for my daughters birthday and I did not want to go through the hassle of returning and waiting again I called and did get a bit of a discount but it still is rather disappointing. I did submit photos and spoke to Jeanette and showed them to her which should be showing on my account?? It took my husband and his brother three hours to put together so was rather surprised on how long it does take and how many pieces there are. All in all my daughter now has it in her living room and it glad she did not have to put it together!!
