 Beautiful, solid wood & well worth the money., April 17, 2009
The HDTV in our office is by no means light weight, so when it came time to find a new stand for it there was difficulty finding one which would support it. This stand is made from solid wood, specs say it supports 220 pounds and, unlike most TV stands, it has a 5th leg in the center to prevent the middle from eventually sagging. This is a welcome addition if your TV is heavy.
It's a beautiful stand and very well built; even the door knobs are heavy. It took less than an hour to assemble, and I had no problem with the doors opening smoothly. The color in the photo is fairly close to the real thing, but to me the actual stand is just a bit darker. It blends well with other medium and dark woods, including cherry.
The open shelves in the center of the stand are just over 19 3/4" wide. The shelves behind the doors are just shy of 12 1/2" wide. The height of all the openings with the shelves removed is 16 1/2".
The shelves are all adjustable to three different heights. One word of caution: At any height, only the top OR the bottom shelf will house DVDs & games in an upright position. This was the most disappointing feature for me, and the reason I deducted one star from the rating. Either the top or the bottom shelf will always be just a bit shy of the height of an upright DVD/game case, so you must choose one or the other when adjusting the shelf.
There are a total of three rear holes for cord management, one behind each door and one in the center of the open shelves. The open shelf also has a half circle carved out of it so you can easily pull the cords through to the top or bottom. The shelves behind the doors do not.
The first stand I was sent was broken, but I called Target and it was replaced with no hassles. The broken one was picked up and a new one was shipped out at no additional cost. Great customer service. Because of this, I fail to see why anyone would keep a damaged product.
Overall well worth the purchase.
