Good Value and Good Looks
By R. Farrow
My wife wanted a TV stand that looked like “real furniture” and I necessitated something strong sufficient and deep sufficient to hold my big Pioneer receiver. After much searching we settled on the Techcraft BAY4828. The product is a mix of laminated fiberboard with a few pieces of laminated wood where it’s necessitated such as with the top TV stand part. The door hinges are solid and the glass on the doors is tempered. The one we received is a reasonable amount darker than the pictures but fortunately it still fits nicely in with the room and our other furniture. Overall assemblage was easy and took with regards to 2 hours. I’ve put together rather a few of these “IKEA” like build your own things and this one went together a bit requiring little effort than most. One flaw with the instructions was with how the hinges and doors fit in. I expended rather a bit of time looking for a lot of non-existent pieces. Luckily the screw holes for the hinges were without doubt or question marked so I just screwed them in. Everything lined up and it works fine. Overall the instructions were somewhat easy to follow.
Pros:
Easy to build
Deep sufficient for stereo components
Strong sufficient to hold heavy components
Decent looks
Great value
Cons:
Instructions could be better
Actual color is darker than picture

Perfect for soundbars
By Jamie
We’ve been looking for the perfective cabinet since switching to a soundbar audio system. This is it. Soundbar fit utterly beneath the top with a great deal of room beneath for our components.
As others have said, it is a bit darker than pictured (in a good way). The manufacturer’s internetsite has a picture that’s closer. Very solid, heavy build. Lots of solid wood used, including the finelooking top piece. Assembly went fine. Very impressed with the quality of the door hinges. Like something you’d see in kitchen cabinets, not assemble yourself TV stands.
This is a real piece of furniture, and it ought to last us a good long while.

Looks Great
By T. Davis
I purchased this after a broken TV forced me to upgrade to a flat screen. Our existent amusement center would not work but this was perfect. There are 6 shelves for your amusement constituents (Cable box, Aux, Video Game Consoles). Many of the TV stands I looked at were made of particle board or covered in plastic veneer. This does have a heap of MDF board (Shelves, sides bottom of the inside of the cabinet. However, the parts that are visible are solid hardwood. The top is all one piece hardwood with finelooking grain. The legs are solid wood and the glass doors are pained in wood. I am very impressed with the size and height. Many of the TV stands I have seen are very short. This one measures in at in regards to 30 inches tall.
The only issue I have with it is the color. It looks darker in person than in the picture. The color is described as “Walnut” but it is much more like a deep cherry stain in person. It is sturdy and looks like you paid more for it.
