Best Purchase of my life
My apartment building burned & I lost everything. I wanted to start my new life with all of Crate & Barrel's fabulous furniture! This furniture will last my lifetime and then some. These media center's are so beautiful and really make my livingroom.

Beautiful
This TV stand is exactly what I was looking for. I spent about 3 months looking for a TV stand that would match my flooring and living room furniture. This is a very well done piece. It is a classic piece that fits in a modern or traditional decoration.

Solid and Functional
Great versatile piece. We have kids and needed storage. It holds 3 pieces of equipment, DVD's, and miscellaneous items with plenty of room to spare. It is not something to move yourself, so let CB deliver and set it up. Our 1st one did come with some pretty obvious dents and door problems, but we were able to keep it until its replacement came with little wait and no issues the 2nd time. Love it!

Better than the picture
I ordered this media cabinet for my 60" flat screen
television. I chose this for the size (72").I have seen other pieces in this line and this is a great piece of furniture. It is real wood, very heavy and well made. The color is darker than the picture but fits great with my decor. The delivery people were so professional and helpful in putting it where I wanted, even putting the coasters on the bottom of the furniture so that it did not scratch my hardwood floor and for me to move it back easily when I was finished putting all the cable lines in. I just love the cabinet so much and what a deal! You can't buy real wood furniture like this for the price anywhere anymore.

This is a sturdy, solid wood cabinet that supports our 52" TV. There are plenty of shelves to store all the electronic stuff behind the doors, and some nicer looking books and games behind the glass doors. There are holes in the back so the cords can go through the back of the console and up to the TV directly. The wood is beautiful, and easy to clean with a damp cloth.

Perfect TV bench
Bought the product during their after Thanksgiving sale. Just had it delivered today. The pictures online do not do this piece justice. It comes in one solid beautiful piece no assembly required! I love acacia wood especially koa wood that is endemic to the Hawaiian islands. But the same piece made out of koa acacia would have cost several thousand dollars. Definitely worth the price!

Solid
This is a solid piece of furniture for sure. I bought another console from C&B that was wood laminate. Trust me,, pay the extra and get solid wood. My other console already has dings and scratches all over it where you can see the particle board underneath. That will not happen on this thing. Very good construction with very rich beautiful wood.

Love this look!
The height provides ease of tv viewing. I love the "closed storage" on either side.

Beautiful Media Console
We were shopping for a media console for quite some time and finally found this gem. The dark solid wood construction and stain matched our other furniture well. There are pre-cut openings in the back of the center for wires, which is a wonderful feature. The side shelf storage is perfect for our DVDs/Blu-rays and games. All doors close with magnets. Very high quality construction. I love the natural wood grains throughout the piece. It's a heavy piece that's rich in color and adds warmth to our living room. Looks perfectly balanced with our 52" TV on top. Highly recommended.

What were they thinking?
In general, the Console is a nice piece of furniture that looks good and feels solid but the functionality and practicality is lacking. The designer of this piece must not own any electronic equipment or used the wrong scale to build it.
I could not get one piece of equipment to fit comfortably inside the console without bending the cables. There isn't enough room to stack nor place equipment side by side in the center. The side panels do not have movable shelves and thus you are limited to the door width, which is also not wide enough for most equipment. In addition, you will need to drill your own cable holes in the back for the side cabinets.
In the end I made it work but not after busting my CD players “play” button the first time I closed the door. Very frustrating…

Functional and beautiful
This piece is both stunning as well as practical. I found the center media space behind the glass doors was adequate enough to store a cable box, DVD player and PS3 console with room for one more item. The two side compartments store DVDs and other items out of site behind handsome wood doors. The only issue I have (which I'm sure is an issue for any closed media piece) is overheating from the electronics, if the doors remain closed while in use. The dimensions were perfect for my 50" plasma. Overall a great piece.

Nice piece, but not as functional as I'd like
I spent a good deal of time researching media consoles for our new family room. My criteria were that the console had to exceed the width of the TV and be only about 25 to 27 inches high (just below the center channel speaker). The Kavari seemed to fit the bill.
In terms of quality, this piece is beautiful. We have another line of C&B end tables and coffee table, but the Kavari matches it very closely. The construction is solid. It's also very heavy. (I lifted it with another 6 foot 200 pounder and our hands hurt after we walked it into the room from the street. I guess I should have it delivered next time.) The side doors, shelves, glass, and handles are all very secure and nicely finished with the same stain. This piece will definitely last, and I am not as concerned about out toddler scratching it so much since the wood is very solid.
Now, functionality. This is a different story, however. I suspect that this media console was not designed by people who do not watch much TV. It seems like it was designed more for looks than for function. The piece has a total of 6 compartments.
The dimensions are not well thought out. The side compartments have a clearance of 13 inches between door frame and door (opened maximally). With the shelf, there is a maximum of about 8 inches between shelf and door frame for both the upper and lower compartment. There are very few modern components that will fit through the 13 inch horizontal clearance (Blu-Ray 17 inches wide; Motorola cable box 17 inches wide). My Samsung Blu-Ray did eventually fit, but not without a lot of manipulation, and it is TIGHT. It seems as though these side doors are better suited for storage of discs or accessories or things of that nature, but I have to wonder because the designer cut out a hole for wire pass-through between the upper center compartment and the upper side compartments. (There is no wire pass through between the lower side compartment and the lower middle compartment.) So, it would seem that the designer did intend for electronics to be placed in the side compartments.
The center compartment is too wide; however, t is not wide enough for two electronic components side-by-side, so there is lost space. There are two cut-outs in the back of the center compartments for plugs, speaker cable, etc. These cut outs are either misplaced in the vertical dimension or too small for a man's hand to fit through an manipulate plugs, etc. Making the cut outs larger would have helped and improved visualization during setup. (You can't possibly see the cutouts once the unit is functioning, so I don't know if the designers were concerned about being able to see the cut outs from the front.)
So, if I were to redesign this unit, I would have shortened the dimensions of the center compartment and increased the dimensions of the side compartments. The cut outs would have been larger and more centrally placed.
However, if you're just looking for a nice medial console that will fit your cable box and your all-in-one home theater/DVD/VCR combo, then this will serve your purposes brilliantly.
If you have more than two or three components, you definitely should consider the small size of the side compartments and take your tape measure with you to the store.
If there were a better console out there that didn't cost more than $2000 (like all the others I researched), I would buy this again. However, I still think this unit suffers a little from a lack of intelligent design.

Great Value
Wow what a solid and rich looking piece of furniture. They didn't have it on display in my local showroom. However, they did have other storage units in this collection to view. I decided for the price I would take the chance. I am so glad I did.

Beautiful details
This console is amazing. We searched high and low for a media cabinet that we really liked that wouldn't break the bank and boy did the Kavari deliver. It's the perfect balance of classic and unique and an updated look so it doesn't look like your grandma's furniture. Also, it's not so unique we will grow tired of it in a few years. Yep, it's definitely a long time piece - heavy, solid, beautifully constructed and did I mention it looks great? We have our 52'' tv on it and it holds its own. The delivery guys were great too. Held it up for me while I affixed all four furniture feet to the bottom!
