I purchased this TV stand a month ago and am still very pleased with it. My partner and I assembled it together, but he was able to do most steps alone. I was most nervous about the last part, essentially the table top, which I had read in other reviews sometimes didn't have corresponding pre-drilled holes and dowels/hardware. Aside from this challenging step, everything assembled flawlessly. There was only one small area of cosmetic damage, but it was in an area that would not be visible once assembled. The components were all packaged very well and arrived in a timely manner. I purchased the rustic barnwood color and it is as pictured.
