Review on Sauder 420034 Avenue Charter Finish by Christy Brewer

I already have a Sauder living room side table in the same design. I really liked the aesthetics of the table, so I decided to give it a try. I mainly use this stand for my home office to place our wifi router, printer, some books and some photos. PROS: - Came in perfect condition. This is the first manufacturer I've ordered from that includes hardboard bumpers all around the outside of the box. The whole box protected all the way to Alaska. Very easy to assemble. Instructions and plans were clear and understandable. Assembled in 20-30 minutes. - Lightweight but very strong. - Stand design is simple but looks nice.CONS Not many as they aren't a deal breaker, more of a nuisance: -Never been a fan of the included hex wrench/hex key . It would be nice if it had a ratchet allen key to speed up assembly. There are marks on the shelves that go against the grain of the wood. It definitely looks like it was caused by the machine during production. I agree because they can easily be covered with items that I will put on the shelves. All in all, considering where I live, a pretty good shelf would cost me at least $150 or more.
