Pinnacle Design - Solid Wood TV Console for Flat-Panel TVs Up to 55" or 100 lbs.

The reviewer who said they put this together in 30 minutes must be part android. Or perhaps I am just accustomed to Ikea's Allen wrenches and cam locks. Assembling this solo took me HOURS. The directions were mediocre, one of the drawer supports crumbled as I put in one of the screws for the drawer glide, and one of the front supports is bowed which made it impossible to get it and the front right leg flush. That little 1/4" gap is driving me insane. I will not purchase this brand again.

I bought a new 50" tv and needed a tv stand to support it. I only chose this tv stand because it was the cheapest of only 3 that were on display that could support my new tv. It didn't look all that nice at Best Buy, but I bought it anyway because I didn't want to spend too much money on top of what I was already spending on the tv. Since it is quite heavy, I decided to pay the extra money to have the Geek Squad put it together for me. I'm glad I did, because it took the 2 Geek Squad guys a little over an hour for them to put it together (and they used power tools!). There is no way I would have ever been able to put it together myself with just a screwdriver. Once they put it together and it was sitting nicely in my living room, I thought it looked absolutely great. Much better than the display at Best Buy. And it hasn't dropped my tv yet. It does look slightly weaker on the right side than the left. The Geek Squad guy said not all of the screws fit, so that may be the reason, but it hasn't compromised its ability to support the weight of the tv.

Other reviews we saw mentioned the difficulty to put this together but let us quantify it for you. There are a total of 190 pieces to put together including all the screws, nails, and other items. The instructions are basically pictures. We got this together in one steady attempt spread out an hour or so over three days; no problems. However, it takes a good deal of patience and you need to be pretty handy. Once together, the product is solid and just what we wanted. Note that we would not recommend this to our friends because we don't have a lot of handy friends but we would recommend it to a patient handy person.

This dark solid wood tv stand is stylish and well built. Plenty of room on top and on the shelf for entertainment setups with multiple devices. The assembly instructions leave much to be desired as does the installation hardware. there are two different types of screws, one slightly longer than the other but have the same color and screw design. if you use the slightly longer one on anything but their designated holes, you will screw through the top or front. The attchment of the drawers to their rails arent as solid as could be. Even though i am harping on the assembly of this product, it is still an great tv stand.

I got this tv stand for my 42" tv. It comfortably holds the tv and two small surround sound speakers on the top, cable box, main surround sound unit, and Playstation 3 in the middle, and the two bottom drawers hold around a combined total of 60-75 blu-rays/video game cases. The only negative thing I have about the stand is that the bottom drawers hide the back part of the door, and it makes it really inconvenient to reach/look at the movie or game cases that may get pushed/placed back there.

This TV console is very nice and looks good. It was a bit tricky to assemble, and one of the drawers did not quite fit into the space causing difficulty to open and shut. We had to shim the drawer glides to make it fit correctly. If I had to assemble this on my own, I would not have known how to get the drawer to fit. Nevertheless, I would recommend it, as my brother took this in stride and corrected the fit with little issue.

Made in Brazil + Some Assembly Required = Here's some wood and screws, good luck! It looks good and is inexpensive, but the instructions took to figure out, and it took forever to assemble. Additionally, it's made of cheap materials and I don't expect it to last long. I wouldn't put any TV larger than 40" on it.

I purchased this particular piece with two things in mind, a good value for the money and it was built with real wood. I am very happy with the unit overall. Yes, the assembly was a little tedious, but worth the effort. It took me 2 hours to put it together, but the picture by picture instructions were concise and easy to follow. You will enjoy the solid construction and the beauty of the real wood with it's nice finish and style.
