I was excited to get this product, as I was looking for a nice corner TV stand/fireplace. The fireplace shipped separate which is fine, and the TV stand itself arrived the next day. Upon opening it up and inspecting the pieces, I found that the top shelf was cracked in the front that faces out, and another piece was broken in half. I was able to put the piece back together that was broken and I finished putting everything together, which didn't take as long as I thought. The piece that is cracked is very visable, and my plan is to fill it in with puddy. I did not want to go through the process of sending it back only to run the chance of having it denied. The box was shipped UPS and was not damaged at all. So please be careful when purchasing this product.
