TV Stands

I like this TV stand very much. I looked at many, many stands before deciding to go with glass instead of faux wood with which I anticipated problems with drawers and finishes and assembling. No problems like that with this TV stand. And I didn't want a mammoth furniture store TV stand. A handyman put the stand together for us (with some help from my husband lifting the glass shelves) and I don't think he had any trouble. The box was 100+ pounds so too heavy for us to carry down the stairs. We opened the box and carried the pieces one-by-one. Threading the wires through the holes on the back is a little challenging, but worth the effort. We have a 50" plasma TV and this stand leaves plenty of room on the sides for DVD cases and Netflix envelopes. So far we have a DVD player and VCR on the middle shelf. Will also have a Roku and maybe a cable box. There should be plenty of room with the two shelves."..."  Read more

Putting the stand together was relatively easy; did it in an evening. I did find that the drawers (which are mounted on rails) were not the easiest things in the world to get set correctly; it took quite some doing to get them moving smoothly. I had exactly the right number of everything; be warned that there are no extra screws, etc., at all. I used a jigsaw to widen the wire holes in the back of the stand, to increase airflow. I also mounted an exhaust fan for a particularly hot component. Everything worked fine. The stand looks nice (it's holding up a 60" tv) and is quite sturdy. There's a small crack in the veneer, but one must be right next to it to discover it. I have no idea whether the crack was there when we got the stand or not; we're fortunate that it's essentially invisible. Always remember to check the dimensions (this is a big stand, and is quite heavy!) carefully. This stand is taller than some other models because of the drawers, and that impacts the viewing height of the TV. We nearly bought another stand whose center speaker shelf was too small for our speaker; Always remember to check the dimensions!"..."  Read more

I bought this tv stand for a 32 inch flat panel tv. The size of the unit is perfect. Even though I don't have it in a corner, I have the option. I like the doors for anything below the first shelf and I actually like the open first shelf since that's where my satellite box is and I can get to it easily. I put it together myself in a couple of hours. The only thing I did was screw something through the top of the back panel. You can't see it but the directions weren't clear and I should have paid closer attention. Otherwise, very easy assembly for one person. Make sure you are doing it on carpet cause you have to slide pieces on their tops. Only thing is I have to dust it about every day because it's black but I like how it looks nicer matching the tv."..."  Read more

I was so excited to see this together. My husband did it while I was out so I cannot comment on assembly. We upgraded from our big screen to a flat screen and this stand was exactly what we were looking for. It's great looking with the tinted glass and silver accents. Looks amazing with our black and silver tv. Holds the tv very comfortable, but we did recently mount it. It holds the cablebox, an xbox, dvd player, rounter, belkin home theater protector (size of dvd player) 3 small speakers and i found 2 cute black baskets, from crate and barrel to fit nicely on the bottom shelf to hold my daughters vsmile and accessories, and 2 picture frames.I really can't get over how great it looks, the price was great [...].I wish I had room for the matching tower..Plus, I love Massachusetts, so it was great to see this was their location."..."  Read more
