When the stand arrived, it appeared to be freshly painted based upon the odor. This initially wasn't considered a big deal, but because it wasn't allowed to properly dry/cure before arrival, some of the surface paint stuck to the bottom of a desktop decoration that was discovered when the decoration was removed to dust the stand. Since no touchup paint was provided, and it's not clear if the manufacturer used a latex or oil base, I'll have to live with the blemish going forward. Overall, I would consider the stand to be average in quality and not commensurate with the product cost.

This is a lovely piece of furniture. I chose Havana Gold , a rich brown without being too dark or ashy. It fits my TV well. Right now it is not all the way in the corner as I am waiting on more furniture I am very pleased.

It is just perfect. Holds my 55in TV with no problem. It has a paint smell, if you keep the doors open for a few nights, it goes away. Must be tethered for safety in my home.
