(More customer reviews)I bought this to use as a component shelf. I had mounted a 42" plasma on an articulated arm in a corner at my parents home, and needed something for the other hardware. A typical corner piece wouldn't fit because of dimensional clearances there in front of a long, low hearth. This works. The cable box is on top, and the middle shelf holds the once-state-of-the-art VCR with the DVD player on top - but just barely. Mom plans a trip to Hobby Lobby for some baskets for the bottom shelf, to be used as DVD drawers one may peruse from the couch.
It assembled quickly and easily, and felt solid when done. The product description read "cherry", and the box read "cherry", but the piece I received is definitely much closer to walnut - darker than pictured, with very little red tone. A lot of the stability comes from a mid-rail under the top for width from side to side, and centered for depth. It comes down 3 1/4" under the top, so if one intends to use the full depth of the middle, it won't be for the full heighth. That's a more attractive configuration for an end table visible on both front and back, and all edges are finished to be used that way. There are little plastic caps to cover those "cam" fasteners, which you can see if you're looking for them, but don't stand out. The trimming of the laminate corners is just OK, but I wasn't expecting craftsmanship here. All-in-all, I'm happy.

Set a table lamp on this 23-inch high end table from South Shore Furniture's Skyline Collection, placed next to a sofa for a well-lit living room. The end table's lush, rich cherry finish and straight lines enable it to fit into an assortment of interior design motifs and to adapt to different rooms and for applications. An ideal surface to set a beverage, magazines for perusal, or one's wallet, keys, and other daily must-tote items, the end table offers two wide open shelves. A recessed H-stretcher runs under the table's top between the table's end panels to separate the top shelf's area, allowing one to line up books neatly on both sides of the stretcher for twice storage. Without such a divider on the lower shelf, this space works great for tall or stacked larger articles, like photograph storage boxes or oversized magazines.
South Shore crafted the bulk of end table out of strong laminated engineered wood and recycled fiber before applying its lovely finish. The end panels rest flush on the ground, as does a second H-stretcher below the bottom shelf which furthers the shelf's strength and enhances the table's overall stability. In addition to the end table, a matching coffee table, TV stand, and bookcase are available for separate purchase. The end table necessitates adult home assembly. For defective parts or workmanship, a five-year limited warranty covers this item upon its online registration. The end table measures 19-1/2 inches wide by 17-1/2 inches deep by 23 inches tall and weighs 31 pounds assembled.
