This is a good product as long as you understand what you're getting. It is typical of many low-end, mass produced modular furniture peices on the market. All wood pieces are "veneer" over partical board. The pieces are assembled with manufactured hardware (metal dowels and metal locking nuts that you insert into predrilled holes on each wood peice). The hardware is specifically designed for the unit so don't lose any! There are about 30 or so wood peices and at least 100 differene peices of hardware. It's best to spread it all out prior to construction.
The instructions are a small printed, so some care is needed in making sure you're working on the right peice during each step. And it it can be hard to tell which side you're supposed to be instering the hardware on some peices. No worries though, the hardware removes easy enough when you make a mistake.
Overall assembly took about an hour with the help of another adult.
The finished product looks very nice, and the shipping process resulted in only a few minor blemishes which is really good considering we live on an island in Alaska and it came through UPS, which means it got transfered from manufacturer, to truck to jet, to float plane and then to ATV BEFORE it reached our post office... Good packaging, which definately took some abuse in shipping.
The unit is smaller than I expected but has a surprising amount of space. The corner design also fits tightly into the corner, which makes it look even smaller. Which could be a really good thing for a small house or apartment. And still it provides great storage for components. It fits our 42" Panasonic Flat screen with a few inches to spare. Has room for a PS3, a home theater receiver, DVD and VCR and the kids Wii. However, media storage is limited so you might find yourself looking for a media shelf or cabinet in which to store all your movies/games.
In summary, this is well worth the $229 we paid. (which included free super saver shipping! My best Amazon deal EVER!)

I absolutely LOVE this entertainment stand. It is perfect for my 42'' television. If you are looking for a corner tv stand this is the one for you. It has a lot of space to keep your surround sound, cable receivers, picture frames, dvd's. Even has enough storage for my Wii and Wii Fit board! Stand is extremely sturdy. Not hard to put together. The first time it was shipped it got damaged, amazon immediately shipped me a replacement. I am very satisfied with my purchase and quality of this product. Amazon had the cheapest price for this product as well. I found it on other webpages for over $100 more! Do yourself a favor and order this product from amazon.com.Best Deals for South Shore Vertex Collection Corner TV Stand, Ebony
I spent quite a bit of time looking around for a corner TV stand that had some sort of shelf above the TV. I settle upon this one because of the price point, the look, and the reviews I had seen. First of all, the product shipped very securely. I didn't have any problems at all with chipped or broken pieces. Everything looked great right out of the box. I found the construction quality to be really pretty good for this type of product. It seems very stable. My biggest complaint about the product is the assembly instructions. In similar assemblies in the past, each step has its own page to help illustrate the correct assembly. Not so in this case. Often times there were three or four steps per page. With the diagrams being so small, I found it taking lots of extra time to put this together. To be fair, this is an annoyance during assembly, but doesn't impact the quality of the end product. All in all, both my wife and I are very pleased with the look and quality of this entertainment center and would recommend it to anyone.Honest reviews on South Shore Vertex Collection Corner TV Stand, Ebony
Bought this for my new 42" plasma tv. TV fits perfectly with a little room.Fits nicley in the corner and takes up less space then my old boxing entertainment center
The color of the wood is darker than I thought from viewing the pictures online, but it still looks great
Easy to put together, just like putting together Ikea furniture
Enough shelving to hold my DVD, Wii, Wii Fit board, CD player, Amp/Receiver. Could hold more on the bottom if you have thinner items and take out one of the bottome shelves.
The holes in the backboard to feed your wires through are small. Would have liked 1 or 2 extra holes. Hard to fit all of the wires through, including the cable tv wires, etc... You may want to drill a second hole in the back panel especially for the top shelf depending on what you put there.
Shipping was free. Two of the pieces had minor scratches on them. Could have used them as is since you wouldn't really see the scratches, but called South Shore and they Fed Exed for free replacement pieces. Very nice.

I picked this out for my mom because she just bought a new 42" LCD flat screen TV. I put it together by myself (with a little help from my mom). There were a lot of pieces but everything was labeled so it was well organized. We chose to put this flat against her wall (not in the corner) and it worked perfectly! It looks very nice in her living room and there are a lot of shelves. She has her DVD player, VCR, DVR, Nintendo 64, Stereo and two speakers (on top) and there was still room for her to add a few of her statues! We just bought a 42" flat screen and now I am ordering another one of these for our house!
