This TV stand is gorgeous. We use it as a buffet in our dining room. When we first unboxed it, it was covered in what I assume was sawdust and had a very strong smell. Cleaned with a vacuum and dry cloth and the smell dissipated pretty quickly. Because of the design on the legs it’s not the most sturdy (could tip over so be careful with small children) but it does come with straps and hardware to secure it to a wall.
