This tv unit looks nice and is plenty wide for a 65 inch tv. Putting it together was a bit of a chore, took a couple of hours, good thing the teenager agreed to do it even though he eventually needed help. The doors dont hang perfectly, the door gap is a little larger toward the center of the unit for some reason. Other than that, the gray wash is beautiful, the hardware is nice looking, the unit is functional, seems sturdy enough and was inexpensive.
This console is exactly how advertised! See photo. It has worked out perfectly for us. My husband did have a bit difficulty putting together but once he did it is very nice. Very sturdy. Totally recommend!
EASY to follow instructions. The piece is very heavy and sturdy and of quality material. My only suggestion would be for the instructions to have you put the magnets for the doors on before putting on the top, it can be done after putting the top on but it is more difficult to do, especially if not using any power tools. Otherwise, I am very pleased with this piece of furniture, it is a very worthwhile investment.
We love our new entertainment center. The only complaint we have is that the instructions were a little off when assembling it. The pictures were opposite from what actually needed to be done. Besides that its perfect. Its really high quality and sturdy. Our two year old has taken to putting her toys in the cupboards and it is holding up nicely. Love the color and the look of the wood. We have all our wires hidden in our wall so we didnt want anything too big and bulky. It is perfect.
The entertainment center looks great, and a big reason we picked it is because it matched our coffee table from a different brand.
For the most part, it wasnt too bad to assemble. The problem was primary with the connector cams and post screws, similar to what Ikea uses to join 2 boards at a perpendicular angle. Most of them worked fine, but 2 spots did not. It didnt matter what cam or screw I used, they didnt connect right. My conclusion is it had to do with how deep the hole for the cam was drilled.
The other issue I had was also related to pre/drilled holes. It was with the pilot holes for the hinge screws. The screws are small and difficult to screw, but the pilot holes were too small. With a regular screwdriver, I couldnt get them all the way in. I almost went to Home Depot to get different screws, or drill new holes. Instead I used the drill to screw in the tiny screws (not recommended by the instructions). With enough force and the power of the drill, I got all the screws in. The screws stripped in the process, so theres no taking them out now.
So I did get the entertainment center together. A couple joints arent quite as tight as they could be. We will see how that affects things long term. It does look beautiful.
Theres also some discrepancy between what the description says and the documentation that comes with the product. The description says it fits a TV up to 80, but the product itself said it fits TVs up to 70. Im not sure if thats related to weight or width. We just ordered a 75 TV. The base of the TV is 66 wide and the entertainment center is 70 wide, so maybe the 70 the product referred to is the width of the TV base. Considering how the 2 joints didnt fit quite right, Im a little nervous, so Im considering wall/mounting the TV right above the entertainment center rather than test the weight limit.

Worth more than the money I spent.

Nice, but a little stressful putting together

Looks really nice

Exceeded my expectations!
It was easy to assemble but it took me 3 hours not complaining though! I really love it! Good tv stand for the price!
Looks beautiful, not as easy to assemble or well made as Ikea
