Beauty is only skin deep
By Aged hippie
I purchased this unit because it is stylish, functional, and feature-laden. Among the features that I liked are the plentiful venting (bottom, interior shelves and back), center speaker drawer, and (optional) flat screen stand.The top of the first unit I received was damaged. Rather than replace the entire console, the manufacturer sent me a replacement top (also damaged). The second replacement top appears to be undamaged, but when I removed the old top, I discovered additional, hidden damage. ALL of the vertical panels (there are five) are split to varying degrees. Although I have repaired them with wood glue, this demonstrates lack of quality control, inferior materials and/or shoddy workmanship. The cherry veneer looks beautiful, but it chips easily.I also had to replace the rollers that came with the unit with larger, 4" swivel casters. The stock rollers may be suitable for hardwood floors, but they are totally useless even on thin carpeting. And they only allowed the unit to be moved forward and back, not side to side.If I had it to do over again, I would not purchase this unit, or any other AV cabinet made by BDI. This kind of quality I would expect in a $200 piece of furniture. But when the price is $1600, I should expect (near) perfection.

Beautiful and Functional
By Verne C. Harnish
We love this A/V cabinet! First is the modern and clean lines of the furniture -- and the quality materials BDI uses. We have four children and they can be rough on furniture -- slamming doors and drawers and hanging on the hinges.Second is the functionality -- it's obvious that the cabinet was designed by an A/V specialist. The hidden cable runs are placed perfectly. There's an optional mesh center cover perfect for placing the center speaker of our surround sound system. And it was easy to assemble.Last, I was impressed by the quality of the look and finish on the back side of the cabinet. It's a piece of furniture that you could sit in the middle of the room. To me this is the sign of a high quality piece of furniture.

By LWJ
My husband wanted to take advantage of discounts to buy a new TV recently, and we agreed that he could buy the TV as long as I chose the new TV furniture. I had a hard time finding something that would complement our decor and would also hold the TV and all the TV stuff---until I found this. What a nice piece of furniture! Beautiful cherry wood and nice metal accents. It hides all that electronic stuff while making the room look and feel more luxurious. I wish they offered a version that was this same width but a little taller, but we like it still.
