This is the first time ever we've had to give a negative review for an item purchased on Amazon. We've been Amazon customers close to 15 years now, and buy most all our items online.First and foremost the quality of the item is substandard. Instructions are poorly written and printed so small a magnifying glass is needed to read it. My husband is a pretty handy fellow overall with a mechanical engineering background and was ready to throw the "thing" into the dumpster after less than 10 minutes. We would have shipped it back had it not been for the fact we had a family emergency which took us away suddenly for almost a month. The packaging and wrappings had been gotten rid of in the meantime, and by the time we returned we had no choice but to put the "thing" together. And it looks like hell on top of it all.
Best Deals for Home Source Industries EH 7030 Rolling TV Stand, Mahogany
I use this tv stand to hold a 32" tv and a vide game console. The stand comes in a low profile box, with all the shelves and components. All the screws and mounting hardware are in a single bag, not organized or separated. The instrunctions arenot impossible to read, but do require some interpretation and visualization of how the tv stand will be put together. I would highly recommend a power screwdriver to put this together. The screw holes are pre-tapped, but it's alot of work to hand screw everything together, which is what I did. A couple things to be aware of: all the shelving was dirty and dusty from the warehouse so I had to wipe it down before assembly. It pays to take your time and visualize how the tv stand will look when it is put together, because it is
possible and easy to make a mistake. Have a power screwdriver handy or be prepared to do some physical work. Also, the holes for the 4 rollers on the bottom weren't pre-tapped deep enough so I had to tap mine with a nail first. This is a manageable assembly for someone with average mechanical aptitude, but for someone who doesn't work with tools this probably would be too much to handle. When it's done it looks very nice in a corner, the wood is a dark brown mahagony color. I thing this item is fairly priced.
