SIMPLIHOME Draper SOLID HARDWOOD 60 inch Wide Mid Century Modern TV Media Stand in Medium Auburn Brown For TVs up to 65 inches for the Living Room and Entertainment Center

I went with this entertainment bench because the color and leg style was close to the wooden legs on my leather family room furniture. I had also purchased a different furniture piece from Simpli Home a couple of months ago and had been happy that the piece was all wood construction and was a decent quality piece. This entertainment bench arrived ahead of schedule. I ordered it on a Sunday and was given a delivery date that was ten days away only to be surprised when the package was out for delivery five days ahead of schedule. The product comes well packaged and everything arrived in tact with no damage outside of a small ding on the surface of the unit's top, but I suspect that wasn't from shipping based on how it looks.The media bench was pretty easy to assemble. Everything you'll need to assemble it is included except for a Phillips head screwdriver. From unboxing to fully assembled it took about an hour to have it assembled. There was only one screw that didn't tighten well, but all the rest came together nicely. It's a softer wood, so make sure you don't over tighten. I suspect that that the one screw that isn't nice and tight might have been turned a bit too much causing it to be a bit loose.The unit has adjustable shelves in the center as well as inside each of the cabinets. The center portion of the cabinet has two pre cut holes for cords. The unit sits high off the floor so you'll want to make sure you have your cords tied up neatly so it doesn't look sloppy.My only criticisms of the piece are there are a few areas where the wood is a bit rough, but they aren't in noticeable areas. There are also a few areas where the finish looks like it was applied a little too thinly (mostly on corners or edges).I like that this piece was a lot easier to assemble than the Ikea media center's we have had in the past. The unit can store a good amount of stuff in the cabinets. I also like that this isn't super short like another media center we had gotten for our family room that ended up getting placed in the basement playroom because it was too short for my liking.Overall, it's a nice piece of all wood furniture. For a piece of furniture that you assemble yourself it's nice quality. I feel like it's better quality than the all wood Ikea media centers we have had in the past. I think it is worth the price I paid for it ($340) and I'm happy with how it looks in my family room.

The media could not be loaded.  I have been looking for a mid century, modern turntable stand, and this look like a perfect way to do it. I ordered it thinking I might have to spray paint it white and change the legs. However, when I received it, it seemed perfect for what I needed. As I assembled it, I realized I did not need to put the back on it. So I left it off, and then I only installed one of the sliding doors. They easily snap in and out so I may remove both for that open look.PRO’sScrews together, true and tight.The back panel, is thin, but it’s not flimsy.The back panel is not structurally needed for stability of the unit, so you can leave it off to get that “open look“ which looks betterThe color that is shown in the Amazon picture is quite true to what I received, it’s a honey, mahogany like color with a very tight appealing grain. Not at all like oak which is good in my opinionCON’s NONEI was able to turn this into a very nice turntable stand, without having to spend a lot of money, and it doesn’t look like all the other options available. I’m so happy with his purchase. It looks great in my new home vinyl lounge.

Super happy with this piece of furniture!! Extremely well-made, heavy and solid wood - great instructions, easy assembly. It really is a beautiful piece!!

I recently purchased this TV stand for my living room - I love the teak color and the mid century style is perfect for my 1940s-era home. The stand is sturdy solid wood, and really heavy.I'm a woman in my mid-40s, and I was able to assemble this alone in about 4.5 hours (though actual assembly time was probably closer to 3.5 - I took several long breaks to rest, strategize, and swear during the process).The instructions are clear and the parts are well organized BUT if you're assembling this alone you'll need to get a little creative. Power tools help a lot.I found that resting the stand on its front during the initial assembly to attach the side and interior panels was the easiest way - any other way required too much effort to balance the base. Once I attached the legs, I stood it up to attach the top. This part went surprisingly fast.The left door went on perfectly - the pre-drilled holes were perfectly aligned BUT were not well drilled, so I inserted the screws first, reversed them back out, and then installed the door.Same issue with pre-drilled holes on the right door BUT the holes weren't aligned correctly and even following the instruction of inserting the middle screws first to adjust the alignment didn't work. I ended up having to stand the unit on its end and rest the door on the ground, and use a ruler to align the holes for the door on the right. It still doesn't hang perfectly but it's much better, and fatigue beat out my OCD after about 1.5 hours of trying to get it perfect.I also accidentally reversed the interior panels for the shelves, so the predrilled holes for the magnets were on the wrong side. I was able to remove those without having to disassemble the unit and reverse them once I realized my mistake. Definitely pay attention to the instructions here - I didn't and paid for it.I didn't install the backboard at all. I like it better open, but was planning to install it anyway. The fact that there was only ONE predrilled hole in the back to secure the backpanel was the deciding factor in leaving it off. I just didn't have the energy to try to force in the other 14 or so screws required to hold the back panel in place at 1:30 am.Having a friend help would definitely have made the job go easier and faster, but it CAN be done alone. Just be prepared for some challenging moments and colorful language. And watch your toes as you're moving it around.In the end, it came together beautifully and looks fantastic in my living space.

This cabinet is well designed with basic screw/bolt attachment. Not to expect a super high level of joinery, but none the less very sturdy. The sliding doors work better than expected. Great value. Impressed happy log cabin camper.
