I bought this because of the height. It's hard to find stands that are at eye level and not barely off the floor. It's nice and solid and looks lovely in our home. I didn't give it five stars because the space on the sides is rather tight. The side doors have deep storage which really isn't necessary but not much width making it hard to easily get movies in and out. And although I picked this specifically for its wooden rather than glass doors, it's a bit annoying that I have to open them to use my DVD player with the remote.
