The TV stand came out pretty much as pictured once I put it together which, as some other reviewers had mentioned, took longer than expected (2.5 hours) due to poorly drafted directions that caused some frustration.   The material was cheaper looking up close than I had anticipated, but I was aware that the unit was made of manufactured wood and I guess you get what you pay for.  That being said, the unit works well for use in my basement and looks fine as the back panel is up against a wall, so the cheaper material is not readily visible. 

Pros: As pictured and looks decent
Cons: Materials and difficulty in assembling
