This TV stand is absolutely perfect for my small apartment!  The fireplace is a nice touch and really makes the place feel homier.  The shelves are a nice size for a few DVDs, books, and small decorations.  The color is true to the image shown, and it feels very sturdy.  My only word of advice is that the box it comes in is VERY heavy (they package it well) so I would highly recommend having another person help you (I could not carry it up the stairs alone).  Overall a very good looking piece!
