Good looking, not well designed
(May 5, 2013)
"Ok, first off, it's just as good looking as the photos make it look. It's quite handsome for the price. However, it just doesn't seem like it was designed to be a media console. For one it is VERY shallow inside. My Technics record player was too deep (that one in the photo must be TINY), so I had to cut out the back panel to allow the front panel to close, and I had to cut a cable access hole on the other side as well for the receiver. All fixable issues, but if you're not handy, measure carefully and keep cable management in mind. It came with numerous parts dinged up and broken. UO was great about sending me replacements, but those too were dinged up. I just chose to fix it up myself, and the ding luckily was in the back, but still, kind of lame. The build quality seems great, a step above IKEA I'd say. All metal hardware and it doesn't feel rickety. So...definitely recommended for its looks if you are comfy with a possibly doing a touch of work to make it suit your needs."

Excellent media console with mid century feel
(January 2, 2013)
"This console is wonderful. It is just big enough to fit our oversize receiver on top, all of our records inside with room for our record player, cable box, playstation apple tv....I am so impressed!
We looked for YEARS for something that had the proper depth for our records and our enormous receiver that wouldn't overpower our room. While this is completely full and we had to use the top of it, we've received tons of compliments and it works wonderfully with our mix of vintage and contemporary furniture.
I was really surprised by the quality. I expected Ikea, but it is far superior. The only thing we had to adjust was we put a piece of cardboard on the inside of the fabric door so it was fully opaque. Perfect!"

Nice Design, Average Quality
(December 3, 2012)
"While the design is lovely, the quality leaves a bit to be desired, which was expected with this price. I purchased two and placed them side by side for a mid-century TV stand. It holds a 47' TV with no issues and leaves space for other items."

Awesome as a tv Console too!!
(November 6, 2012)
"I wanted a tv console that was unique and inexpensive. And came across many retro or mid-century consoles. But they were either expensive or not the look I wanted. So, when I saw this I was in AWE! My problem was I needed something that would accompany my 48" flat screen tv. So, I said to myself, "why not buy two?! Put them together..." And I thought why not? Who says I can't. If anything, I can return it for something else. So I did. And it's awesome. I worried at first, but after a few days, I hardly noticed it was 2. One came with a scratch on the corner, but a little paint and that's cool.
As for using it as a record media stand, I don't have one. But, if I wanted one in the future I'll just buy something different. With two, it holds everything and more. With one, I'm sure I'll get my cable box and 2 game consoles in provided I drilled a hole for the top shelf. Easy to install, too. BTW, be careful when dusting. I notice just a little paint rubbing off when I used a dust cleaner. I personally will use a damp cloth. No regrets!!"

Vinyl Lovers Dream
(October 2, 2012)
"I have been searching for quite a while now for a versatile piece of furniture that not only looks good, but holds my record player. THIS IS IT! I love the sliding door that can hide your records and the player. The top also opens up so it is easily accessible. I loveee this piece, it is so vintage mod and looks great in my music room. I would def recommend this product to anyone who values their vinyls.
The only downside is that you have to put it together which took a while but i did it all by myself, you just need a philips screw driver."
