Nathan James 74101 Mina Modern TV Stand, Entertainment Cabinet, Media Console with a Natural Oak Wood Finish and Matte Black Accents with Storage Doors for Living Room or Media Room, Oak/Black

I’m really happy with this purchase, it’s such good value for the money. It’s a really chic upgrade from my former TV console and was fairly simple to assemble - it took time but the instructions we’re accurate and very thorough. I was able to do it myself in about 2hrs. I’m really satisfied with the way it turned out. It’s definitely very sturdy, not flimsy or cheap looking at all. Much better quality than something from IKEA or Wayfair in this price range. This is the second Nathan James piece of furniture I purchased and I highly recommend. No one will ever think you found it on Amazon (not that it matters), point is it looks much more expensive. Also, LOVE the color of this wood, it’s a pale natural oak color, very understated and the caning on the doors is just so good. If you’re on the fence, just do it and add to cart now!

I bought this cabinet to hold our media equipment and DVD’s. I loved the cane style doors and the color of the “wood”. My husband was able to put it together in about 1 hour. It did not come with instructions, but we were able to located them online through this page. Once set up, we noticed the doors were sticking on the top inside corners. I contacted Nathan James. They answered the phone, were extremely friendly and wanted to make sure they dealt with the issue I was having. I was immediately sent an email with a possible fix. Unfortunately, the fix wasn’t for the product I had. I called again on weekend. Once I heard they were closed I decided to hang up and call on the next business day. They next day I had a call from them stating they saw they missed my call and wanted to check to see if there was anyway they could help me out. I followed up and was told to send pics of the issue so they could send that to their tech team. I had an email the next day with a fix for my issue. We were able to make the adjustments and the problem was solved! I had a follow up email checking to make sure I was able to get it fixed. I have NEVER had such impeccable customer service. I would highly recommend their products. I am so pleased with this product and will be ordering more from them in the future.

Read carefully if you want to find yourself leaving a 5 star review instead of a 1 star review!!! #1 - Get out a measuring tape and make sure you understand its actual size. The photos with the tiny @$$ TV on top is slightly misleading and I can understand how people expected it to be larger. #2 - Make sure your TV doesn’t weigh more than 30lbs!! My TV is 55” diagonal and isn’t heavy like it seems some others’ TV’s are from the reviews. The top of my TV stand is not caving in at all and the doors open and shut just fine. #3 - The color. It is actually more yellow in hue than the photos lead you to believe. The photos have a muted white-washed & almost darker tone. Especially the wicker lookin part. I would have preferred muted/white-washed than the color that it actually is but I still love it even with the slightly yellow-er tone. #4 - THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT!!! TAKE YOUR TIME reading the directions. Lay out ALL of the bolts nails and screws and match them with the manual before you get started. For some reason, they put some screws from completely different steps in the same bag. Idk why?? And TRIPLE CHECK everything. TRIPLE CHECK the alignment and the direction each board is facing and make sure you are choosing the correct letter boards!! I almost affixed some boards upside down or put screws in places that would have been irreversible if I didn’t catch it before tightening! Also, the diagram has one error in terms of lining up a piece, and I will let you know what that error is— the flat metal bar that goes on the doors (yknow, the piece that will eventually meet the magnet on the base), this flat bar is incorrectly placed on the door in the diagram. They show it near the edge of the door but it’s actually slightly closer in. This is the only visual error I found though. The rest of the pictures & hole alignments are correct. You must have INCREDIBLE attention to detail, INCREDIBLE reading comprehension, and INCREDIBLE deduction skills. I am smart but this took me 2-3 hrs to do! Not 45 mins! #5 - They tell you not to tighten things immediately until all screws and such on that piece are in line— LISTEN TO THIS. For reasons I mentioned above. Also they said not too overtighten to avoid damaging the wood. Listen to this too. #6 - BE GENTLE. And slow. Get a blanket and lay it on the ground so that as you work on the boards, they don’t scratch or chip. I did all this and it’s a 5 star product for me. If I had missed any of this, it could easily become a 1 star. So just pay attention and do your due diligence!

I spent days looking for the right TV stand. They were either too long, too tall, or too expensive. I finally stumbled across this one and it was on sale. It’s perfect for what I needed.

This tv console looks great! I received it today and just finished putting it together by myself, easy, in less than an hour. All the parts and drill holes were good so assembly was straight forward. It is quite functional for our needs and though not the most expensive piece of furniture it is what I expected and does what it says.I also appreciated the humorous comments in the manual :)
