The TV Stand arrived as scheduled, in two packages , each in good condition. The contents of each packagewere very well protected from shipping damage by custom-shaped foam cushioning. Each piece was clearly marked, and matched the instructions perfectly, making assembly easy for one person (about 2 hours) and accurate. The completed unit is a sturdy, beautiful addition to our media room , and the "classic cherry" finish, together with the paneled wooden doors and the beveled glass doors, gives it the look of an expensive piece of furniture from a local furniture store ! We are very pleased with it.
