Very sturdy! And heavy. Almost like real wood. 

I almost gave it four stars but it’s only because the directions didn’t state the direction that a piece was supposed to go and I had trouble unscrewing it without removing the drawer, but I figured it out. Relatively easy to set up, I did it all my myself and I’m not exactly a buff lady. Took a couple hours to set up. But I do love this tv stand especially for the price. Our cat Pepe for scale as well as our 72 inch tv.
