Walker EdisonGlenwood Rustic Farmhouse Glass Door Highboy Fireplace TV Stand for TVs up to 65 Inches, 58 Inch, Driftwood

Wow!! So much to say, but I’m cooking dinner now and I’m going to condense this.First, it arrived today around 130pm, I completed it at 530-6pm range, however, solo, and with interruptions. Mostly answering the boss, blowing off work, talking to the GF so I could hide what I’m doing while she’s out of town.The UPS guy didn’t want to knock though he knew I was inside so he laid this heavy MF sideways in front of the door. Don’t worry, no one will dare steal this, it’s 90-120 lbs, seemed like 120, but I’m not lifting like I used to.Oh, let me Add this... other people that rated this poorly were not prepared or wanted to devalue the rating. Let me say now, for 280.00 (I got the taller one) this is SO WORTH THE VALUE. I got the barn wood by the way. But every piece was there and a few extras I ended up needing cause I busted a CAM. So happy it was included.Every single piece of wood was perfect, I laid everything out, got rid of the mess, and not for one freaking moment did I deviate from the instructions. And still, by not paying close enough attention to the drawings, I made a mistake and had a few pieces turned around, however, this was my fault, not the drawings or the pieces as again, everything was PERFECT.Because I was solo at home, I just took my time, I used the glue on the dowls and lined everything up and dry fit things first. Meticulous because of two reasons. (1) I’ve built furniture like this and have been disappointed before and (2) I’m building this to surprise my GF next week when she gets back and I wanted it done right. So I took the day off with no distractions.Try building this with kids running around, tv blaring, or in a distracted space and you will have problems, and it will again, be only your fault for not creating a place of ZEN while putting together your new fireplace furniture. I listened to Mozart and some Techno mix back and forth, try it, you’ll like it.As I took my time assembling I thought to myself how smart it was they go in order the way the do. The reason I say this is because YES one person can build this, a second my actually piss you off, get in the way, and confuse you. TRUST ME, you’re smart enough to get this right on your own.But by going in order, one page per step, and assembling it like they did, you absolutely see that even if you’re 100lbs wet, once you get this in the door, you can handle it on your own. (I’m 6ft, 210lbs) but still, my GF could do it but she’s out hiking mountains currently in a warmer climate.Additionally, by going one step at a time, you can handle and maneuver the weight super easy.Now, I will say one thing that absolutely SUCKED, and it was the 3 screws on each side of the fireplace. That was a CLUSTERFUCccc.And why was it you ask?Because it’s a small screw and narrow space deep situation to line up the fireplace to the frame it fits around. And you basically put that in after you built everything except doors go on last cause that has glass and makes sense right....So I resolved this by getting a magnetic tip Phillips bit and an extension and the ONLY time I used a power tool was to steady these screws with a bit and extension on the drill which also has a light so I can see a little screw, extended 18 inches deep in a space 2 ½ inches wide... oh let me Add here, the screw holes were on wrong side cause I did something wrong. Either way, I found out if I switch those pieces that it wouldn’t have lined up anyways, but the screws are sharp, and I used low speed on the drill to start a new hole for all of them, and steadily tightened it down being certain NOT to strip the screw and ruin the holes I was making.It worked like a dream!! Also, you need light behind you to see what you’re doing and a magnetic splint screw driver and a steady hand with force behind it will work. The drill was better for me though.You WONT get this to screw in without magnetic tip on a short Phillips. Also, this is necessary because it holds the fireplace steady plus two reinforced brackets that keep it steady and not moving. Since it’s a push button I don’t want it moving or shifting, and it’s in their secure.So here I am, about to cook my Salmon with KEENWAaaahhhhh ;) and I’m proud of myself. I didn’t get pissed, I didn’t blame anyone else, I got the day off to make this really cool piece of furniture that just so happens to match the coffee table nicely, and while we have a huge TV, I created a Fireplace solution my girlfriend always wanted in a Rental I’ve been in for less than 35 days while she’s out of town.Definitely, buy this, in any color you want. Don’t think it’s anything but laminate and particleboard and compressed board, but it’s heavy, and if you go SLOW and Steady, you won’t break the wood, and when it all locks together, and the glue dries (you can get wood glue and use that instead) it will be solid and really hold up for the time you want it to.Don’t abuse it, don’t put stupid heavy items on it, don’t keep moving it back and forth, set it once and then forget it, dust it, love on it, enjoy the cool logs and flames that look great, and just absolutely know you got a really great deal and a nice piece of furniture that will last as many years as you want it.Here’s where things go wrong though, moving this with a moving company that doesn’t protect it, well it may not hold how you want. But I’m not worried about that, it is going to be exactly what we want it to be. And the ambiance it provides and the blank wall under the TV is now solved, with her hopes of a fireplace.It’s a rental, I’m not putting in a gas one here ;)So enjoy it, own the decision to build it, really make it an event on the day you want to build it, and you’re sure to love it!!

Thought someone might be able to relate to this LOLAttention therapists: I have discovered the way to get to your patients' rawest emotions. It's called FURNITURE BUILDING!I know, because I have just departed from furniture building hell. Let me tell you a little about it.$400 TV stand with an electric fireplace! "This will look so cute in my tiny place ", I think to myself. "Let me read the reviews." I see that assembly does not seem too bad. One woman writes in, "My husband and his friend completed the assembly of this in about 45 minutes." HOLD MY BEER!! I've got this all by myself", I say.It arrives. It's about 75 lbs, and the box is about a foot taller than I am. I discover right off the bat how weak I have gotten as I push and tug to get it through my door. "Wait! I have a strong 12-year-old boy who can help me." He tells me to get out of the way, that this is a man's job. I should have surrendered in that instant, but I decide to carry on with all my feminine fortitude.It starts out quite well. I warn Sam that it's very important to read every instruction carefully, because the worst thing that could happen is that we get the whole thing put together and then have to take it apart because we missed something. This warning would later come back to haunt me.Things are going pretty well at first. We try to get it together before he leaves for school in the morning. I still have that 45 minute time frame in my mind. Most of the morning is spent with me holding cam locks into place, because I have not yet learned that you can put them on afterwards. So, if you can imagine the two of us trying to hold upside down cam locks into place while jabbing knees and even heads into the sides to push everything together. That was pretty much the morning, along with Sam filling holes with glue for the wooden dowels until he feels the bottle is empty.After working all day and then tutoring, I decide I am finishing this thing all by myself. Exhausted and hungry, but my determination is winning. I still have the doors to put together, but I finally complete the largest portion of the piece!! Hallelujah! And then I see it: the back panels of the shelving. I frantically turn back the pages in the book to realize I missed this step long ago. This entire piece that I have put every ounce of my energy into will have to be torn apart. I consider, for a moment, using a hot glue gun to put the back on. But my sense of rightness decides against it. I sit and cry about it a bit and decide my best place is in bed.I wake up this morning ready to tackle the challenge. I disassemble it only to find I cannot seem to reassemble it. My back is killing me. I learn that I can no longer lean on my knees. And I am moving my body in all sorts of painful positions just to avoid other pains. Nothing fits anymore. I decide that if I can pick this whole thing up I will just throw it through a window and cut my losses. Can't decide whether to cuss or cry or do both.I finally decide to flip it on its side. I can't reach the top anymore so I have to get a stool for that. And as the cam bolts fall out for the hundredth time, I suddenly learn that I can put those in when I am all done. Until that moment, I believed myself to be a pretty smart person. Finally, I get it all back together and wonder how I will flip it back by myself without dropping it. I look around as if some invisible figure is coming to my rescue. And I just go for it. I somehow manage to get it flipped back over without shattering it into pieces, but I feel pretty certain I have broken something really important inside my abdomen doing so. I'm thinking now it will probably hurt later to pee or bend. We shall see. I begin to move the old furniture over. That furniture, even heavier and bigger than this one. I tried this at first in socks on tile. Yeah, you can imagine that I almost gave up again. But someone, somewhere is figuratively still holding my beer, and I am now days past my 45 minute time limit, so I carry on. Finally, the doors. They would be hanging on upside down right now had I been able to make that work. Finally, I'm down to four screws. screws that need to be placed at the very bottom of those doors. I can't get on my knees and there is still that burning in my belly telling me that something is in the wrong place now, so I lie down. I'm pushing and twisting and the screws are not budging."Why am I all wet?" I hear myself thinking. Everything.... My arms, my back, my thighs. My whole body is wet and it is not sweat. Have I amputated something in the midst of this nightmare? Oh wait!! There's that bottle of construction glue that we thought was empty!! All. Over. My. Body. Apparently, it just needed that extra push of my weight lying right on top of it.To the two men on Amazon who assembled this in 45 minutes, you can have my beer and any piece of furniture my stupid ass ever decides to put together again.

This piece really is lovely. But do not discount the reviews. A couple days before delivery l read comments that indicated long set up time. They were not lying. It took me 7.5 hours to build this. The instructions were very clear. Laid out well. Diagrams were very helpful. It is just a tedious process. Understandably. However, l am a 65 y/o female and l built the unit by myself. So if you are patient, brave, somewhat strong and have the time, you should have no problem. I did order room designated delivery but l think there should be some respondibility to deliver a thing like that into someone's home without charging extra. But watch what you order! The very next day after l received this item l saw another in my cart for $30 cheaper. Amazon would not give me the credit unless l purchased the cheaper one and disassembled and returned the first one. I guess when you are as big as Amazon you can do whatever you want.

The fire looks really nice, and I like that I can just have the fire on with no heat if I want when it's warmer outside and I still want the ambiance. The heat setting heats up the family room really well. I'm really enjoying this piece in my chill out space.

Overall, the product is of good quality and the instructions are good enough to follow. However, there were some small issues:- Trying to assemble this thing on your own is a pain. If you're a seasoned furniture builder, it will still take you a couple of hours. I am not, so it took me about 3 hours to make sure I did everything properly.- Some of the pictures for assembly aren't entirely clear if you have to face a piece in a certain direction; common sense works best here, but that was a bit frustrating.- After checking the final couple of steps like 10 times, I determined that the product was missing a hole in one of the cabinet doors. You'd expect a product to have the right holes in the right place... but considering the 1 cabinet door had 0 holes, it was clear something was wrong (and when you're trying to follow steps perfectly, it's a huge curveball when something isn't the way it's supposed to be!)- Some of the pieces had minor scratches. The product comes with these wood colored/patterned stickers, meant to cover the locking screw holes, but they also work to cover up the scratches. If this wasn't included, I would have been really upset (but you get what you pay for?)Overall, the design is great - minor scratches is annoying - assembly alone is a pain - and the directions aren't "the" best, but they're manageable. Have a friend with you during assembly to save yourself some time and frustrations

Je l'ai commandé et certaines pièces étaient brisées. Donc j'ai reçu un nouveau kit. L'assemblage a été facile et pour le rapport qualité prix je trouve que c'est correct. Le meuble est très beau et marche à merveille. Ne comptez pas sur le chauffage pour vous réchauffer l'hiver. Il a un côté rustique qui donne du charme. Je ne regrette pas mon achat.

I purchased this for my 89 year old mother who just moved into a retirement home. For the price, it is of good quality. As I was alone to pout it together it took about 2 hours. Instructions are clear. There where a few scratch, very minor, not worth sending back. It was well packed , very well protected. Best part is it made my mother happy... note: I had previously built 3 units of the same type.

It looks amazing, I took my time building it altogether almost an hour and a half. It’s definitely more beige than white.
