The TV stand looks fine- but the assembly took forever. I hired someone from Task Rabbit and it took 4 1/2 hours and I watching him work consistently the whole time. So I would just say be prepared to really spend a lot of time on assembly. Also the box it came in was so heavy. I couldn't even pick it up. Luckily two kind men in my building offered to help me- but even they had a hard time lifting it.
