I have a 75 in TV and this stand was perfect. I put it together by myself so it definitely took a long time but the instructions were clear and straight forward every step. I also has to reach out for support after installation via email and they responded promptly and provided way more than I even asked for in making sure I was happy with the item. I would gladly buy from this company again given that experience but I highly recommend putting this together with 2+ people. For size of the sides ir won't fit a PS5 standing up and would have to stand pretty wide to fit it laying down. I also recommend putting soft stickers on the bottom it made ir so easy to push and pull the sides and have a piece of mind that it wasn't scratching the floor.
I love it. The drawers seem a bit shallow, though. For the space they take up they don't hold a lot. That said I love the look and i have all of my music in one spot. The stereo fits perfectly. Solid cabinet doors on the bottom would have utilized the space better in my opinion.
I like how it turned out but there were some definite challenges in putting it together. This was my first piece. I did three more different cabinets after this one.
Learn how to repair stripped out holes before you have any.

Have wood glue handy should you decide to use it, supports (read on), label small containers for your hardware so much easier than looking through all those little plastic bags for the right screws when you need them (there are so many different types and sizes for a reason). Do not over tighten your screws. Make sure your cams lock, go that little extra to get that final satisfying click or clunk into place, again don't apply so much force that things get stripped out. It would be nice if they provided a little scrap piece to practice on so you could get the feel of it without it being on your actual build. Read through the instructions first so you know when you will need to use supports. Any piece that is left hanging while you ready the next piece is one that needs support .
1) there is one piece on this build that, when put on initially, has no support on the other end. In my case the weight of the unsupported end broke the particle board out where the cam was located on the attached end while I was trying to position the next piece. I have since learned to have support blocks handy ( I used leftover scraps of packing styrofoam and magazines and books to get to the right height). Doing that made a world of difference in subsequent builds, I wish I had thought of that on this piece.
2) when putting the top piece together I used the cardboard corner protectors and a ratchet strap to hold the bottom of the top piece together before enlisting help to lift the top and place it onto the bottom section. I wasn't sure how well that was going to work. Everything was fine and probably would have been without the strap but it made me feel more confident and it worked great.
3) Never try to tip the top section upright after the pins have been put in place. It puts too much pressure on them and they will tear out the mfd wood. I did not do this but could certainly see where that could happen. You definitely need two people when putting the top section onto the bottom section.
4) When installing the doors (if you don't have a second set of hands) I used an office chair with a pneumatic lift (provides some fine adjustment when you kneel on the seat to get everything to line up) and my packing foam scraps, books and magazines to hold the doors at the right height. Any height adjustable stool or chair without arms would work as long as you get it close enough to the cabinet. A larger stack of books and or foam would work too, just not as easy to move around and you can't get that fine adjustment that you do if you can kneel on a chair. Work with what you have, you'll figure it out. I eventually hung eleven cabinet doors by myself that way. The chair with the foam etc. worked perfectly to hold the doors at the right height while I put in the screws.
I replaced the hardware to match my existing decor and really like the look and the extra storage it provides. It was definitely an exercise in problem solving. Hopefully, these tips will help someone else.
Beautiful! Used as a coffee bar. Not super super sturdy but does what it needs! Relatively easy to keep clean despite being white.
I think itĄŻs the perfect size for my room. It looks real nice in person and fits enough of my clothing. It took me about 3 hours to put it together and that was with a drill lol.
