Walker Edison Brahm Classic Glass Door Storage TV Console for TVs up to 80 Inches, 70 Inch, Espresso Brown

This is a beautiful piece. Easy to put together. Looks like it came from a high quality store. I love it

I purchased this as part of a basement renovation, looking for something sturdy, simple, easy to assemble and good looking. I needed something large enough and with enough depth to hold a large Denon receiver. Most of the media centers smaller than this were not deep enough.There are quite a lot of options out there, but the looks, size, and reviews sold me. I was able to find the same item on Amazon, Overstock, and Wayfair. I don't always prefer Amazon, but they are always competitively priced, reliable and consistent.The piece was delivered in one (heavy) box by our friendly UPS man. He wheeled it right through the garage, into the basement. Unboxing was straightforward and even though the box showed numerous dents and rips, the pieces were all in great shape. Only two pieces had any sort of mar on them, neither of which were structural issues, nor were they worth the hassle of replacement. One was a back piece and the other was the top. A little furniture polish fixed 95% of the rub marks.For unboxing and assembly, I highly recommend you have a shop vac ready. There was a great deal of styrofoam used in packing, and it was everywhere and, because of static electricity, it stuck to everyone and everything. There was also some type of fiber on everything. It looked like fiberglass, but it wasn't. It didn't cause any itching or discomfort like fiberglass, but we wanted to make sure it was all off of the pieces before we started assembly. Consequently, we vacuumed off each piece as we unboxed it, then wiped it off with a microfiber rag. The mess would have been much bigger had we not done this as we unboxed.The assembly itself was pretty easy. It requires only a Phillips head screwdriver and some time. I would not attempt this as a solo assembly. There are a couple of times where you really need a second person to help move the assembly on to the base, as well as to hold things steady while the first person attaches some of the pieces.Perhaps the most difficult part was installing and adjusting the doors. They DO fit. My advice is to read the directions on adjusting the doors BEFORE you install them, then read them again after you have the doors hung. They make more sense once the doors are in place.Taking our time, and cleaning as we went, it took us about two hours from start to finish. We probably could have done it faster, but we wanted to be extra thorough. I also began installing the audio equipment before my wife had finished the doors. It was a little easier to run wires and such without having to worry about messing up the doors. In retrospect, I'm not sure it was easier or faster, but it seemed like the thing to do at the time.I like the piece, it looks great, is sturdy and well made. I would definitely recommend it and I would buy again if necessary.Pros:Well built, very sturdy once assembledEasy to assemble (recommend two people)Looks great, a very nice looking piece of furniture. Looks like solid wood.Well packaged. Little or no damage, despite obvious damage to the outer box.Large and spacious for a lot of audio equipment.Cons:Styrofoam packing gets everywhereLots of packing materials (although effective, and even though I recycled the cardboard, I felt guilty to have produced so much waste for the landfill)Two minor spots of rubbing from packing/transitSome type of fiber over everythingIn two small spots, the glass has spots that were very difficult to clean. Required a razor to scrape off.

We originally received this product and it was damaged. The manufacturer did not have replacement parts for the damaged pieces (it was the base and top so not pieces that could be easily hidden or used in a damaged state) so we had to wait to be shipped a new unit. None of this is the fault of the product nor manufacturer, damage in shipping happens especially on such a heavy item.When we received the replacement we checked for damage and there was none to speak of.Assembly:You should expect that the assembly of a large item like this is going to take some time and require a significant amount of moving yourself and the pieces around. That is what happened with this item. Exactly as one would expect. Instructions were pretty straight forward so long as you can follow diagrams, with a minor exception for when it came to attaching the rear panels.The panels that connect behind the cabinets and those that connect behind the center are tongued so that they overlap (there are no gaps between pieces that let light through from behind), it makes orienting the panels on the back important to do right and the diagrams don't mention it. I wasn't looking forward so had to remove the panels and reinstall properly.Also, the included glue (for the dowels) was partially dried in the tube.Sturdiness:The product stands pretty sturdy, doesn't shake or wobble, except when trying to move the assembled piece. You can definitely notice a bit of give in the connections when moving the piece, though it's not particularly bad.Overall:Good quality for the price. Really nice color. Assembly was mostly as expected. Product holds TV and components well, is sturdy enough for holding your stuff.

This console is used as a TV stand. We picked this particular one because the size fit our needs and it had a space for a sound bar. All of our electronics fit in it well. First to note is that the unit was extremely well packaged to protect the parts from damage. This included ample styrofoam, internal cardboard, and reinforced cardboard around the edges and at the corners. Just very well protected. No parts were damaged or missing. They even included a small bag of assorted spare parts (that was amazing!). Assembly was pretty straight forward, just follow the directions and put parts together in the order shown on the instructions. I did it myself with a little help a couple times at the end. Fitment for all parts was very good. My only complaint is that there are several glued dowel attachments. Glued dowels are best assembled with bar clamps to insure a tight fit. I didn't have long enough bar clamps to do this, and if I did it would have taken much longer time to glue and clamp all the pieces together (days instead of hours). So, I didn't use clamps, I assembled it in about two hours, and in the end all was good. I have no problem recommending this product or any other products from this manufacturer.
