| This stand is absolutely GORGEOUS!!

| If you are still undecided, you simply can't go wrong with this stand. EVERYTHING about it is superior. The quality, workmanship and fit all come together to produce a truly GORGEOUS piece of furniture you will be proud to own.
SOME HINTS:
1. Assembly should take about 30 minutes. While 90% of the assembly can be done by 1 person, IT DOES TAKE 2 PEOPLE to put the 2nd and 3rd shelves onto the unit, as well as 2 people to flip it upright when assembly is completed. (These are all big pieces of glass, and they are too cumbersome/heavy for 1 person to attempt alone).
2. You will be "building" this unit upside down, then it is flipped upright when completed. The unit is very sturdy after assembly, no wobbling/shaking, whatsoever. After assembly is completed, and when flipping the unit upright, TWO PEOPLE should do it in 2 stages, 90 degrees at a time.
The top shelf is put FACE DOWN on the floor, then the supporting columns/rods put in place. The unit comes with a choice of "caps" for the columns -silver or black. (I chose to use the silver, and the contrasting result against the black glass is spectacular!)
The black glass shelves have a 'shiny' side and a 'dull' side. When assembling, remember everything's upside down, so put shelves 2 and 3 onto the unit with the DULL SIDE FACING UP. That way, when the unit is flipped upright, the shiny side of the glass shelves will be on top.
3. If you take your time, you will end up with a truly elegant looking piece of furniture; one which is guaranteed to fit into any decor, and which should never go out of style. |

| So far so good

| I bought this stand for a 38" tube tv that I inherited. I have to say I was sceptical of the claim that a glass stand could hold up to 300 lbs and had visions of the stand shattering or collapsing when I put the tv on it (the tv weighs in at about 250 lbs) but it seems to be holding. Overall I'm happy with the workmanship and appearance of the stand, the only thing I would like to see changed about it is the cable management system. The cable tube only attaches to the "back" of the stand, which I have facing the front because I'm using it as a corner stand, so you can see the whole tangled mess of wires behind the components on the lower shelves. I would give it a B- for minor design oversights and not being as competitively priced as it could be. |

| Very nice stand.

| Packing was great. This has 3 large tempered glass panels....heavy! It took two men 30 minutes to assemble. I wouldn't try doing it alone. One mistake I made was to try and clean what looked like a rough spot off of the bottom of one of the shelves. The shelves are clear glass with a black silk screen on the underneath side. I scrubbed the spot and ruined the silk screen in a small area. I easily repaired it by spraying flat black on the spot. Just keep in mind- no cleaning (maybe with a dust cloth) on the underneath side of the shelves. It's a great idea to use clear glass with the black silk screen, I've had black glass before and scratches show easily on it. I believe this was is MUCH better.
Highly recommended, beautiful, strong stand. |

| Great TV Stand
(LisaNicole, Wake Forest, North Carolina, 2008-05-02) |

| This is a beautiful tv stand, well worth the money. It looks even better in person, and looks amazing with our new 52" Toshiba on top. Assembly was easy, but I recommend 2 people if available, because the tempered glass shelves can get a little tricky to place if only one person is there to guide them into position. They're a bit on the heavy side, (which is good) so 2 people would make the job go by quicker. Overall, we couldn't be more pleased with our purchase. |

| Love it

| It looks wonderful! The tempered glass is shiny and looks great. It's pretty heavy but not difficult to assemble. I suggest using two people to put it together since the shelves are pretty heavy and have to be put on the rods carefully so as not to scratch the glass. I'm using it with a 52 inch samsung LCD, and it fits perfectly. Highly recommend |
