The item name and description for this product contain false information.
The product is called the "Walker Edison 52-Inch Solid Wood TV Console with 4 Doors."
The description reads: "Elegance and function combine to give this contemporary solid wood TV console a striking appearance. The design gives a stylish modern look crafted with solid Asian hardwood. Console will accommodate most flat-screen TVs up to 55 in. Adjustable shelving allows for a wide range of A/V components."
While much of the cabinet is some sort of wood, a significant and visible panel is particle board. The particle board is the 52-inch by 16-inch bottom panel of the cabinet. The front edge of this panel is visible along the full front length of the cabinet, as the doors fit within the frame rather than over it. The laminate on this particle board piece arrived with chipped and cracked edges.
While most of the rest of the console is wood, ours arrived with some pieces that were cracked -not split open, but with cracked seams.
I called the company, which said that it is not responsible the description that appears on Amazon's Web site.
Just an FYI for other customers who, like us, were searching specifically for something that does not contain particle board.

the packing for the item was good. The item itself was garbage, and not wood but particle board. The instructions were miss printed and completely the wrong picture in places. While assembling the way describe the flimsy particle board front bottom panel( which is almost the entire support for this item cracks and the pin holder came completely out of the board. The box had gotten thrown out or i would have returned this item the same day. DO NOT BUY!! you will be sorry if you do, and forget putting a television on this flimsy piece of junk unless it is your soon to be ex-wife/husband's. i gave it 1 star because will not allow no stars.

This is a hefty package that really takes 2 people to carry into your home. Unlike the previous reviewer, it took me about 8 hours to put together (I'm not the handiest person and I was very slow and methodical putting it together). One person can put this unit together although a second set of hands would be helpful.
The unit pieces are very well packaged -while the outside cardboard was dinked up the there was not a scracth on any of the pieces and every piece is individually numbered which helps the assembly process considerably. Keep a vacuum handy -there are lots of little styrofoam pieces to protect the components that will fly all over your room otherwise.
Follow the instructions to the letter (e.g., if there are five predrilled holes, the instructions will identify the two holes to insert a wooded dowel -put it in the wrong hole and you'll have problems).
I ordered the unit on a Saturday and paid the extra $3.99 for one-day delivery. It arrived on Monday -typical fantastic Amazon.com and UPS fulfillment and delivery.
The unit stands 25 inches tall -NOT 24 inches as described in the listing. This probably won't matter 99% of the time but FYI.
As the other reviewer stated, measure you components in advance -the inside shelf space is just under 14" deep (or you can carve out the back of the unit (there are several holes in the back where you can run wires out the back of the unit) which is very lightweight. Also, make sure your components' remote controls work through the glass doors before you do all your wiring.
This is a nice, plain piece of furniture that will easily hold a 55" plasma. A 65" would probably fit also but the TV might extend a little bit on either side of the stand -measure in advance.
I'm very happy with the unit. It is

I really liked the look of this media stand, but I ordered and the first box had sustained damage in transit that impacted and marred the wood. I contacted the manufacturer who related that I needed to contact Amazon and provided the contact number. I did and they quickly rectified the situation by ordering a replacement and sending a return shipping label. Unfortunately, the replacement had a damaged piece that did not seem to be the fault of the transporation company as the damaged piece was packaged in the center of the box and no other pieces were damaged. I again contacted Amazon and this time asked for a refund which was provided the same date and a return shipping label was e-mailed to me again. Amazon also picked up the charges for UPS to pick the item up at my home instead of me having to take it to the local UPS pick up facility. Amazon's customer service was excellent...too bad the product did not meet up to the standards of what I needed. By the way, the color is more of a cherry rather than walnut.

There is nothing more satisfying than having built something yourself! In this day and age where we have no time to have a hobby, I was thrilled to have a slow time on my work schedule to be able to commit to this home project!
After delivery, seeing that the box was indented in many places, I was expecting to hear the familiar, glass crumble-shake sounds. However, upon opening, I was very surprised to see everything nicely protected and well packed. The glass was separately wrapped with cardboard and intact. Even the door knobs were well protected!
The Assembly was fun to do, and the instructions were very easy to understand. All in all, it took me 3 1/2 easy-paced evenings. All the screw holes were pre-tapped and accurate, which is amazing in itself!
The ONLY thing is, this should be noted in the manual, DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN THE CAM LOCKS! I snapped 3 of them. Fortunately, they give you extra parts. Also, putting the glass into the doors was a bit delicate. Compared to the rest of the assembly, this is more Zen like. The same thing applies. Don't over-tighten the screws.
All in all, everything worked out fine, the Console looks great and is very solid. It is exactly what I was looking for and I saved $300 $500 by assembling it myself. No Joke. Also, it's made of real wood, not particle board!
About myself...I an average 56 year old Woman in the SF Bay Area, where Carpentry is not my main skill. This project, has re-kindled a joy, that "build it yourself" can offer. Plus, I am thrilled to have saved all that cash. I would recommend this TV Console highly and kudos to Walker Edison who definitely has their act together. So, thanks!
