Overall a good product for the money. Quality/wise I would say its about as good of a product as you would get at IKEA.
The customers who gave bad reviews are most likely people who have never assembled furniture like this before, and probably used power tools. DO NOT USE POWER TOOLS.
My biggest complaint is with those round locking screws. They dont lock tight at all. My only option was to apply enough force to give them a good lock, but in doing so caused some of the wooden panel on the other end of the locking screw to crack a bit. If you dont lock them tight enough, with enough movement of the tv stand they will loosen up and youll basically have a bunch of panels loosely assembled.
There was one piece that will crack no matter how hard you try not to: the long skinny piece at the top/front of the tv stand. The piece itself is actually about 3 pieces glued together. As soon as you start to get some tension screwing in the locking screws, the piece cracks at the seams. Theres no way of going about to not crack it. Very poorly made.
Good looking product. Loose assembly.
