The product overall is an excellent piece. The Color is a little darker than is advertised. I purchased the Tuscany Oak color and it is a little darker brown than the lighter pine-looking-oak is advertised. The assembly time is GRUELING but worth it in the end. The underside in the middle has a FLIMSY 1"x1"x4" piece of wood to help support the stand and is only held in by a single screw. I do not recommend moving the stand by yourself using the pivot method or else the piece will rip right out of place. The top surface piece arrived with a glass coaster sized blemish in the wood that was cracked and discouraging for being a new product. Rather than wait for a replacement piece, I decided that a blemish would deter me from freaking out if there was damage to the stand caused by use at a later date. OVERALL - Excellent TV Stand for the price! Would recommend this to anyone who asks and would caution against what I have already stated.
