I received this console today. I had 2 day shipping with Amazon Prime, which is always wonderful. But when it got here, the box looked like it had gone through a wood chipper. Very poor handling. Had holes in the cardboard on all four sides. I was very weary to open it. (Which only took a good tug on the end and it just popped open.)
The package seemed well protected with Styrofoam. None of the pieces were broken. Upon glancing at each piece as I slowly unpacked everything, I noticed scratches, chipped off pieces (Paper it looks like), and little dings. That did not deter me from trying to put it together. The total time from unpacking, cleaning, and assembling took about 2 hours. Unpacking and cleaning took the most time. I had to make sure I had all the correct parts before starting this project.
I was surprised how easy it was to put together, given the instructions were just vague pictures. It's pretty straight forward, and I am no stranger to DIY assembly furniture. This piece is HEAVY. One of the heaviest pieces of furniture I've put together. The structure it's self is sturdy. Some of the planks don't line up correctly, and this is a big deal to me (Right in the front of all places). I would like my discount furniture to at least pass as expensive.The marble looks pretty real, besides the fact that it's so thin. Real marble furniture is quite thicker than barely an inch.
As for the product matching the description. I would give it a 3 star. The wood is NOT Cappuccino. It is a dark Cherry color. It's nice color, but it doesn't match the description. Or match other pieces of furniture I have that are Cappuccino. The dimensions are accurate. I'm keeping it regardless of the color, dings, and scratches. It looks nice on my wall, and fits my 40" TV perfectly. DVDs, Blue-Rays, or Video Game cases to not fit well on the shelves. I would recommend having your media storage be elsewhere.
To those thinking of purchasing this TV Console please keep in mind the shipping quality isn't the best, and you might risk having a damaged product. I think I was lucky with this one.Looks great for the value was easy to put together and for the price looks nice. We have a 50 inch tv on it and looks good.
