I would have loved to have given this a 5 star because at the end of the day it's a really solid piece of furniture, and I was pleasantly surprised how sturdy it turned out to be. That being said, it is NOT the easiest thing to put together as the instructions are harder to follow than Egyptian hieroglyphics. The pictograms are small and you'll have to spend time on figuring them out or you will think you have it right then have to do things a second time. I've had lots of experience putting together furniture like this but there were a couple times I struggled. The instructions also say that 2 people should put it together (I put it together myself) which I wouldn't do unless you want to end up in an argument, not speaking to one another and giving each other dirty looks the rest of the day. LOLOL
This was easy enough to put together once you get past the typo in the first part of the instructions. If you read through to steps 3 and 4, you'll see the problem. Seems sturdy enough so far. Didn't care for the adhesive covers for the screw tops...the wood-grain pattern never lines up. Would have preferred the old style plastic version.
This was a gift to my mother, it's a good looking TV stand, and the fireplace puts out a good amount of heat. Assembly was a challenge according to my sisters; oh wait, that explains why it was a challenge. You will need tiny hands to install the fireplace, the mounting holes for it should have been pre-drilled in the TV stand.
The instructions were comically bad, its not sturdy and its super low to the floor.
Ive got it assembled and it only took about an hour but the joints arent very tight and I definitely will not trust putting a tv on it. Ill be using at as a storage bench (yes - bench!)
Pros: looks great, fire aspect is really soothing. Fits the TV and sound bar very well. Pretty sturdy and comes with wall anchors. Pretty level. Overall, pretty nice for the price!
Cons: the instructions are sht. Hard to understand. Many holes are not drilled right. Best put together with an electric drill/screw driver. A lot of spare parts not on the spare part list. Says it needs 15 screws in one are but only 8 holes in the area type crap.

Very good quality looks great but does take a while to put together
