Overpriced for what you get.
Positive things first: It fits a larger tv/monitor than most of the competition. The button layouts are actually nicer than I anticipated. The company is quick to respond to emails.The first thing that I noticed taking it out of the box is that the MDF is on the lower end of the quality spectrum. It's not the worst that I've ever seen, but it's about on par with cheaper Walmart furniture. This made it very problematic with the gluing and screwing. I had to re-glue all of the corner braces, as the edge of the material ripped of as I tried to assemble the cabinet. I also had to glue the back on as the A screws they supplied (meant for sheet metal roofing and siding) stripped out and pulled out of the corner braces extremely easily.I was fortunately able to leave the bottom unglued so I can still access the internal workings.The cabinet has a slot for the marquee, but no plexiglass is provided. No instructions come with the machine, and I couldn't find any on the website. I definitely do not recommend buying this for your first project.While the advertised price is relatively low, there is a $60 shipping fee, which makes it comparable in price to the competitors, most of whom offer free or discounted shipping.Finally, there are no routed slots for the monitor brackets, so you need to have a measuring tape handy, and a protractor. If this were about $50 cheaper, or came with lower/free shipping costs, I would have given it about 4 stars.

Great kit that is fairly simple to put together.
For a total noob at building things, it was a bit daunting to jump in at first. This made a great project to work on with my dad. You will need a 2nd person to help you hold things and line them up while mark them. Use wood glue liberally! It WILL hold though. I love the end product! As you can see in the pics, I added a homemade pedestal to turn it into a full sized upright cabinet. It’s way less expensive to go that route if you can build a rectangular box for the tabletop kit to fit on instead of buying a full-sized kit.

Very over priced as its 1/2 inch mdf. For this price I was expecting 3/4 inch mdf. Comes with no instructions just a bag of cheap screws. Would have given this 2 stars if it was ready to assemble out of the box and had the t molding precut. I will be updating my review once I get it set up.
