Sauder Harvest Mill Corner Entertainment Stand, For TV's up to 37", Abbey Oak finish

Purchased expecting crap, since most the stuff bought these days is cheap crap you over pay for. However This is my fave purchase in furniture so far. It fits in my living room nicely, wasn't damaged, easy to assemble, very sturdy, & overall looks nice.Why not a 5star? It has two sides with doors right? Well the funny thing is, those shelves only come with 1 shelf insert each side, which for a TV stand, it COULD FIT 2, so I legit have DVDs on top of each other.. Which I'm a bit put off they didn't cut 2 extra small pieces, I mean they are small and if I could saw them at home I would, but can't and due to COVID no stores will cut wood either(idk why...they wear gloves confusion face), but wood here is like $4 for a LONG 8" x 35" sheet which could shelf me 5-6 extra shelves. So come on, $4 could easy cover 2 more shelf inserts in the door coves.. :/Thnx for the epic TV stand, but maybe the owners could sell the door shelves as an addon! THNX... Oh look it bothers me that much I can't add more shelves for my dvd collection, yet I only took off 1 star.Anyhow great TV stand aside THAT part :)Holds my consoles/electronics well, tons of room, aside the lack of 2 side shelves in the doors LOL I actually don't use mine in the corner, I put bookshelves on the sides and made it a center stand. Still looks great! ^.^

I am giving this four stars because I like the end product and you can't beat the price. However what should have been an easy assembly bogged down due to some serious instruction omissions. I think the picture (not the one used for this review provided by Amazon) looks like rough unfinished Oak, as does the picture on the assembly manual, but the product is dark finished oak. Although the directions were carefully followed, the finished fit was not perfect, and there are gaps.The following may not have much meaning without the directions, but you get the sense of some of the issues: The Stop molding is not flush on the top surface. If it is meant to be that way, the directions do not indicate it. This could be a deal breaker if you want a completely flat top. The directions say there are no pre-drilled holes on the valance. There should be. If you are a contortionist, installing this part will not be a problem. For a small difference in price, they should have switched out the flimsy paper-fiber board backing with 1/4 paneling and have added two additional side shelves, which I think are needed. I spent some time thinking I had put in the side upright panels for the shelves wrong, only to discover that the holes for the support rods appeared to have been drilled both for horizontal use, or a slanted use (I supposed to make it easier to view CD'S?). If that is the case it would have made my life a lot easier if the directions had said that. If not, they really screwed up on the holes for the side panels.WARNING for pages 8 and 9: When the uprights are in place, they are only locked in on the bottom. I think the slightest movement would snap these right off. Might want to have another set of hands available to steady this while you do the other side. It only becomes stable with the bottom (during assembly it is the top piece) being screwed on. I found that when I went to put this piece on, the holes did not line up. They don't tell you that this piece is not flush with the panel edges. Had I known this lining up the holes would not have been a problem.This is still worth buying, but with my head's up, you should spend a lot less time and frustration on assembly.

After looking at the price for oak corner tv stands we decided $700-$1200 was too much to pay. We found this here on Amazon and are pleasantly surprised with the quality. Yes it does come in a bunch of pieces, but the directions are clear. My husband has assembled many items through the years and he said the best advice is follow the instructions page by page. Don't try to do it your way follow their instructions. They are clearly laid out page by page. They neatly organized the hardware as well. It took him about 1 1/2 hours or so, he is very particular and takes his time. All pieces were in perfect shape and it really looks very nice. We gave it a five star because for the price the quality is very good. If comparing it to an Amish made oak cabinet no it isn't high end, but again we are pleased and it looks very nice in our living room.

It was easy to assemble and reasonably priced. Not solid wood, but a veneer that seems to withstand heavy use. Have had it over a year and still looks new.

Pros:- Quality particle board, good heft and strength- Clean, finished look- Excellent, clear, prescient instruction booklet (sample pages included in my review photo)- Price-to-quality ratio is great ($98 on sale, but I wouldn't mind paying close to the $140 retail for it).Cons:- Very minor nitpicks on an edge or two- Wood is particle board rather than hardwood/softwood- Relatively heavy (not necessarily a con)Conclusion:I was very impressed by the quality of the furniture. Despite the use of particle board, the furniture feels so much better than other units you might find at Wal-Mart or Target (Made in China). Has the quality and sturdiness you would expect from IKEA, but with a much better look. Oh, and actual English directions that are fantastic. I had a couple of times where I was slightly confused, but I looked back at the direction booklet and said to myself, "OH, that's why they said that! It makes SO MUCH SENSE NOW! THE BOOK WAS RIGHT"Honestly, the cons listed above I had to stretch to find - I was absolutely ecstatic with how nicely and smoothly the assembly of the unit went compared to frustration with other furniture pieces. Would definitely buy again!

Beautiful corner unit but difficult and time consuming to assemble. Not that the instructions were bad, but it took 4+ hours and you start seeing double by then. Start in the morning and take breaks!You can see by pics how much we needed it. Highly recommend.

Pretty good

It wasn’t easy to put together but it is sturdy and compliments our existing decor
