The piece is beautiful - really makes a statement with its beautiful base. My only issue is a black scuff (and it is a scuff, not something inherent in the marble) which is quite visible on the front piece of the marble. If the scuff wasn't there, easily a 5-star item. I've had issues with a couple of things I ordered. I just moved and needed a couple of pieces to accommodate things like televisions. This is holding my bedroom television and the size and height are perfect.
