Great Find at a Great Price!!
By Wood Boatnik
We at long last moved into the 21st century and purchased a flat screen TV which necessitated buying a new stand. We expended a weekend looking through various furniture stores to get ideas. We decisive that for our room, a corner unit would work best. Typical furniture store prices for what we liked were $400 on up. We wanted a nice piece that looked like good furniture, something a bit better than the Sauder/O’Sullivan things, (though they do make a great deal of extraordinary pieces). I expended an afternoon on the Internet searching for corner units and found this Riley Holliday stand.
I looked at it on various dissimilar internet sites and read all the reviews. I was impressed with what the reviews said in regards to the quality and the ease of assembly. (It is shipped flat and genuinely is hinged and “unfolds”) Our AmEx points permitted us to get this a good price through Amazon, and it arrived within the stated shipping/delivery parameters (even though it was the week before Christmas).
Today we got it out of the box and accumulated it. Nothing could have been more comfortable and I have accumulated a lot of assemble-it-yourself pieces: bookshelves, computer desks, as well as an entire wall of garage cabinets. It basically unfolds and then you slide in the lower shelf, the upper shelf and then put the top on. All the fasteners and the Allen-head wrench were included. I put extra felt “feet” on the bottom, even even though there were rubber/nylon feet in place, just because we not long ago refinished our wood floors. The stand is wood, not laminate-covered particle board. The brushed nickel knob that was included was very nice, a significant piece of hardware, not just a good deal of cheap, plated piece. The NICEST surprise was the beveled glass in the door. We chose the Espresso finish, which is a perfective match to our existent furniture and complements the room very nicely. Our new TV is a 40 inch model, which is the right size for this peculiar stand. The title gives evidence of it’s for a plasma TV, but in reality you could use it for just when it comes to any flat-screen TV. I would say the TV that is shown in the product photo is a 40 inch unit, just to give you an idea of the proportions.

Excellent item for a great price!
By Lisa
We love our new tv stand! I commonly don’t suppose genuinely outstanding quality when I buy online, since I can’t look closely and inspect the item before buying. We were enjoyably astonished to find that this is very good quality and looks in truth nice. It comes folded up, so all you have to do is take it out of the box and unfold it, then set the bottom piece in and screw on the top. The beveled glass front looks genuinely nice too – it was rattling a little bit at first, but I pressed the plastic stripping on the back side of the glass and tightened it up, and no more rattle! The height of the stand is just right for watching the tv from the couch, you don’t have to injure your neck looking up too high.
Negatives: It had a strong wood stain smell when we took it out of the box. I couldn’t watch tv the initial day or two because it made my eyes water to be in the room with it. After it had a chance to air out, it was fine. Also, the color is labeled “espresso” but I don’t think it’s genuinely that dark. We saw the picture and thought it looked dark brown with red tones, and that’s incisively what we were looking for, so we’re happy. But if you’re looking for dark espresso, this might not suit your color needs.
