The TV Stand was everything I had hope it would be.  Solid wood...smooth...no flaws...very sturdy!  Looks perfect although I am using it as a microwave stand.  So with that, I replaced the back sheet of wood so it wouldn't have the holes in back.  I love it...!  Am so pleased.  Wasn't hard to put together at all...thanks to my hubby. Came packaged securely and on time. I didn't stain it because the wood looks so good.  I just put a polyurethene coat on it.  I am happy!
