Once assembled, the TV stand is great, however, the instructions were horrible! The pictures were very difficult to understand even for a friend  that had worked for a store assembling furniture in the past. The pieces were not labeled, making it even more difficult! Thankfully all the pieces were included (and there were extras as well) and all the holes lined up properly. The stand is very sturdy and looks great once assembled. Beware that if you arent used to assembling furniture this job will be nearly impossible!
