I looked and looked for a new tv stand and finally decided on this one and so far I think it looks great.  My husband was able to put this together in just over an hour with no problems, he said directions were easy to follow and all part were there, all wood pieces were in good condition.  The only downside for me is that the color is more of a reddish cherry color, definitely not at all like the color in the picture.  I still like it but would really have preferred the  wood to match the picture more, understanding though that pics on the computer are hard to match to the real thing.
