A child could easily assemble this! All materials are very cheap- you get what you pay for. This is exactly what I expected and Im NOT complaining, just informing u. Make sure u take measurements n know what u need and exactly what youre going to get in terms of size. The legs are hollow plastic and theres nothing actually holding the shelves together except a male part at the top of the legs that fit into the pre-cut holes into the bottom of the shelves- little plastic legs with the same male part fit into the holes going up into the two lower shelves. Theres no nails or screws- nothings actually fastened. Having got the negative out of the way personally, I love it. Its exactly what I thought it would be for the price and it looks really nice. Flat screens arent heavy these days and my 55 fits nicely. That was tough to find for a small space because the legs of my tv are on each end instead of in the middle. Im going to put heavier things on the little bottom shelves to provide a little more stability just in case but Im not overly concerned. Not that I expected it but I would like this stand better if it had a backing to hide all my electrical cords. OH! Make sure you look at the close-up pic of the shelves but keep in mind I picked the worst example. They have lines on them that look like a mistake was made with the machine that made them or something but Ive noticed ALL French Oak shelves n tables have these including the coffee tables and desks Ive been looking at.
Great for a tight space and a tight budget.
