I am happy with this TV stand now, but had to pay someone to put it together for me, as it came in about a million pieces. I also changed the door handles to some I like better.  The doors are level, and the remote works through the doors on the top shelf. The remote does not work for me on the lower shelf because the items sit too low to be accessible via the glass doors. Plenty of room on the top shelf for my needs, though. The cabinet does not have wheels, which makes it hard to move.
