Overall, we are very happy with this purchase. It's a very sturdy, solid unit, and it looks like a quality piece thanks to it's real-wood veneer (can't be certain it's real wood, but it looks real to me). We also love the clean-line design, and it has the room we need to house all our components (DVD player, XBox, Wii, Set-Top-Box, and Receiver), XBox and Wii paraphernalia, and DVDs. AND the price didn't break the bank.
The upper compartments measure 20"D, 29 1/4"W (opening is 27 3/4"W), 10 7/8"H (opening is 8 3/8"H) . The drawers measure 15 1/4D, 25 1/2"W, 6"H. In the drawers, you can store two rows of DVDs with approximately 44 DVDs in each row. The one downside is that the drawers don't slide out all the way, so in order to access the back row, you need to pull out the DVDs in the front row.
I gave this 4 stars because we had three total snags, two with assembly. First, when we received the unit, two pieces were damaged and one had a flaw. When we received the replacement pieces, those, too, were damaged (But not nearly as bad nor as noticeable as the original pieces, so we kept them). The replacements were packed EXTREMELY well, so I can only guess that the damage happened before they wrapped it for shipping. I must say, however, that Customer Service was excellent; we got the replacement pieces free of charge with no problem.
Regarding assembly, for the long horizontal shelf piece, you have to hammer in a peg from the underside. If you're not really careful, you'll push the veneer up on the top side. (We fixed it by gluing the veneer back down; not perfect, but it's in a location that's not readily visible). Second, one of the drawers didn't fit because the drawer opening was around 1/8" too big. (I was able to fix this by attaching a 1/8" thick strip of wood to the drawer side, and then attached the drawer slide on top of that).
Despite the snags, we're very happy we purchased this, and we would do so again.
