Customers commend the Jamestown TV Cabinet's quality, ample storage space, and attractive appearance. Many appreciate its ability to accommodate larger TVs, up to 65 inches. However, several customers found the assembly process challenging, particularly the door installation. The instructions were also cited as difficult to follow.
Missing the metal for the doors to stay shut and, in picture they cut one of the doors wrong, little skill saw work. It’s heavy and nice besides that.

It was packed well and that was a good thing because the box was damaged when it arrived. There were only a few minor scratches on the product but they were in hidden areas and don't show. Assembly went smoothly however some of the numbers on the parts did not match the diagram so my advice would be to pay attention to the actual diagram when assembling it. When put together it looks nice and good quality. We fit all of our 150 DVDs in the doors with room to spare. The only con is that after putting my DVDs into the doors the left door sagged so much it dragged on the floor of the shelf when you opened it. My husband went and got longer screws for the hinges to help support the door better and that helped a little (it doesn't drag now) but I can see how the weight on the doors could cause them to sag again in the future. Basically it seems that when they designed the hinges and doors they didn't take into account that the door would be full of DVDs even though that is what it looks like it was designed for.

I chose this TV stand because it was the perfect size, came in black, and had three levels in the middle for electronics. The stand was delivered on time and the box was carried into my house by driver and helper. The box was pretty beat up, but all the pieces were in great shape. I only found a couple of minor scratches. One was on the top of the large bottom piece and is not visible once assembled. The other one was on the top of the large top piece. I used a Bic black marker to color it in and you can not find it now. I did not use the included door pulls. They look cheap. I got some nice cylindrical bar drawer pulls (3-3/4"). They look much nicer. I did not use the decorative trim piece above the top shelf. There would not be enough room to fit a receiver, BluRay player, and cable box with it installed (and leave a gap above the receiver to let out heat). I think it looks better without it anyways. I used my own wood glue for all the dowels. I made sure to use plenty of glue in each hole. The provided glue is cheap white glue, plus there isn't even close to enough of it. I also used different screws to attach the hinges to the stand. The included screws are too short and will not handle the weight of the doors (especially when filled with CD/DVD/BD). The toughest part assembling it was the feet. I had to trim the dowels so I could fit them in. Plus I used clamps to hold them tight to the bottom panel while the glue dried (overnight).
