This TV stand is gorgeous and very well made. It was not hard to put together. Very heavy solid pieces make it feel nice and sturdy. The color is exactly as it was pictured. I put it together myself in about an hour and 20 minutes with help from my 12 year old just to hold some pieces steady. It's nice that it comes with plastic feet on the bottom already. I took my time adjusting the door on the cabinet to get it just right and it's balanced perfectly and opens with ease. We have a TV that is mounted on the wall above it but I could easily see a smaller TV being set right on top. The tiered shelves sometimes give the illusion that it's not centered on the wall, but I added a tall-ish plant on one side to balance the height.  I think it works!  I'm in love with it and am very happy with the purchase. Great piece for the value.
