After reading several reviews and hearing complaints about this TV stand arriving damaged, I wish I had listened and purchased a different item. Mine also arrived with dents on every corner of the top piece. It's not solid wood, more like a cardboard-type material, so even sanding it to make it look rustic doesn't really work. It was also absolutely terrible to assemble as there were no pre-drilled holes for the screws...not sure if this was a fluke or how it's normally made. I decided to keep it after going through the hassle of assembly, and the dents are only obvious if you're really looking. Super cute, but be prepared for frustration!
