The tv stand was rec'd on time and seemed well packed.  The stand was a little challenging to assemble.  The stand seems like a good quality piece  for this type of furniture however there is a chip out of the finish on one of the shelves toward the front.  It was rec'd this way as we were extremely careful in removing the pieces from the box and in no way damaged it during assembly. Pros: Seems like a heavy duty standCons: Difficult to assemble and one shelf was chipped
