Although this unit comes in about a million pieces, the instructions provided leave little to no room for error or uncertainty. Once the stand is put together it has a modern elegance about it, and even has the feel of an old buffet in the way the drawers and cabinets close. It is very sturdy and pretty heavy, so recruit help in assembling. We are very happy with our TV stand and would most definitely buy again. Note: Make sure to screw the "Cam Bolt" in until the treads are hidden, not much more, as you will need the extra length when securing all pieces together.
