Sauder Harbor View Entertainment Credenza, For TVs up to 60", Curado Cherry finish

No tan fácil de armar. Pero lindo

The first shipment of the product was damaged in transit by UPS so I had to wait for the second shipment to arrive. Amazon customer service was prompt in resolving the issue and they get 5 stars for that as well.The credenza is incredible! Very heavy and solid considering it is not real wood. I had read the reviews before purchasing so I was expecting it to be darker than the picture and the reviews are correct. It is not nearly as brown as it appears in the photo, it borders along a deep chocolate/black-brown which is just perfect for my home.It took about two and half hours for me and my roommate to put it together. I found that I needed to deviate from the instructions slightly in order for the pieces to fit. Very snug fitting pieces *may* require that you don't tighten the screws all the way down before getting some other pieces into place first. I found this to be true when putting the sides on. The instructions have you completely attach the bottom to the top via the two center dividers prior to attaching the side pieces. I found it much easier to not have the screws in the bottom tightened all the way down in order to have the wiggle room to get the cam screws from the side pieces to fit in to the top and bottom pieces. Tighten the cam screws for the side pieces before tightening down the screws for the bottom.When I got to the step where you put the decorative piece on the bottom, the fit was just a little off. I had to loosen up the cams on one side, fit the decorative piece to the bottom, then re-tighten the cam.When it comes to the doors, the instructions again get a little stupid. It has you loosen the hinge adjustment screw and then re-tighten it *before* you attach it to the door. Leave the adjustment screw loose, allowing the hinge to move out a bit when you install the doors. This made it very easy to position the doors correctly, attach the hinge to the cabinet and then tighten down the adjustment screw.I give it a four star only because of the instructions. The product itself is absolutely a 5 star product! I spent $145.00 on it, free shipping as a prime member. This product looks much more expensive than even it's 259.0 original price.If you have the patience to deal with some of the awkward instructions, you'll be very happy with the finished product.

It'll probably take you several hours to put this thing together, but once it's done, it's a very attractive and sturdy piece, considering the price.Assembly was fairly time consuming. Most parts are marked, but the ones that aren't are fairly easy to identify. All the fasteners came in a single bag. It would have been nice if they had been separated, but picking out what I needed at the time wasn't too much trouble. Just make sure you follow the directions EXACTLY, and in the exact order. Once finished, all joints are tight, and everything is perfectly aligned. Even the three shelves that sit on pegs make full contact on all three sides. All cuts and holes were remarkably precise.I had two extra small screws and a brad nail, otherwise, no spare parts. The two adjustable plastic legs are definitely not spare parts, so make sure you install and adjust them per the instructions. I have a feeling the people complaining about sagging either didn't install them, didn't install them correctly, or didn't adjust them once the piece was in place. Weight in the center of the top is born by the central dividers, then by the two plastic legs directly under the dividers, to the floor.Also, if you assemble in the prescribed order, the piece will already be flush and square, with very tight joints, by the time you install the thin sheet back. The back is made rigid by the thin sheet, the front by trim pieces. The tight fit of the shelves provides additional lateral support to further decrease likelihood of warping. Once completed correctly, this piece is very sturdy.For the money, it's very attractive. It's a little darker than in the picture, but we preferred darker anyway. Granted the two plastic legs near the center may be a tad cheesy, but you can't see them unless you're lying on the floor. Definitely don't leave them off because you think they'll look stupid. You won't even notice them.To get a nice looking five foot wide credenza for under 150 bucks, and shipped for free, there are some things to expect. It's gonna come in a flat box. You're gonna have to put it together. It's gonna be particle board with a thin sheet back. So, I got everything I expected in these regards. The final product is holding up a 60 inch TV, and looks great. It's very sturdy, with plenty of storage space.

We love this unit. Color was as shown online and was easy to put together with the great instructions provided. Read lots of reviews that complained about sagging in the middle of the unit over time but I see the company has now added two extra feet to support the middle of the unit. Very happy with this purchase.

This is just what we wanted very nice piece of furniture. Assembly was good we followed the instructions step by step it went together smoothly. This was our first purchase through Amazon and we are quite please with the experience.

Well engineered.

Nice unit. Solid. I put it together myself. Good instructions, all the parts were there.
