Customer Reviews for Manhattan Comfort Vanderbilt 85 in. White Gloss Composite Entertainment Center with 2 Drawer Fits TVs Up to 75 in. with Wall Panel

Overall a beautiful modern piece however, we had to support with 2x4 and bypass using anchors. Must fix to studs in wall. The top lights didn’t work. We tested prior to hanging and they were fine, then once on the wall they didn’t turn on so we had to let go of the idea of having the overhead lights. Considering there aren’t many options for a 75” tv we’d purchase again and it gets the job done. Also, must use a separate tv mount.

Very time consuming but worth it for the final product. My husband was able to knock it out in half a day. Its a very heavy and great quality tv stand. Very satisfied with our purchase.

If you're tired of your parent's old TV stand or entertainment center and want something more modern, then this is for you! Plus it doesn't have to be permanent as you can simply unhook and take it to your next house if you have to move. I have only one recommendation and that's to get a PROFESSIONAL to install this item as it has the worst instructions ever! This is definitely not the project you want to DIY. I used Handyman Husbands at about $600 and the mission was complete in half a day's time. I've had it for two years now and no issues. Friends and family love it. Even had an offer from someone to purchase mine. Oh and one more thing, it's heavy!...really heavy! Which means it's going to take some time before it arrives to your home as this item has to be ordered, not sold in the store. Other than that, it's been an exceptional piece of my home decor and love it...and so will you.

This entertainment system is really beautiful and elegant looking. I don't normally put reviews of items that often, but there were some important things I had to mention which will help prospective buyers. Despite of it outside appearance, this piece also has some building flaws. Putting the back panel together was a breeze and easy to follow the directions even though they weren't perfect. Putting the table together was a big hassle, as instructions were terrible and had to go back n forth following online and paper instructions. Obviously some improvisation will be needed, as holes didn't line up all the time. Installing the doors and drawers was a big challenge, as they required too many adjustments with putting screws in different slots to make them fit. If you are mounting the panel on drywall, than do not use the screws that came in the package, those will NOT work. We had to use the toggle bolts to secure it tight. Once back panel is on the wall, next up is mounting the TV on the panel. One of the biggest challenges I believe was this as obviously I wanted to mount the maximum size this panel could take. Mounting brackets that are provided with the system are not the best things, we had to install a full TV mounting brackets, only then I felt assured to put the TV on the panel. Once we had the TV mounted on the panel, because of the weight of the TV, it was pulling the third panel 'out' a little, so we had to secure it again with a long screw to hold panel back against the wall tightly. Originally, table sat little bit lower on the floor, as we had to lift the panel higher, so I had added wheels under the table to lift few inches. All in all, beautiful entertainment system to have, if you know what you are doing as I had mentioned, it requires lots of improvisation. I have had no issues with customer service from manufacturers, they were very quick and professional in responding to my requests and getting the replaced parts shipped quickly.

Inspite of all of the reviews saying how hard it was to ensemble, hubby was able to knock it out with ease. Just a little time consuming that's all..

Very nice for the price.

It took awhile to put together due to instructions not that good. Love it and it looks great!

This product has the absolute worse instructions I have ever seen and I have put together furniture from other comparable manufacturers. The holes do not line up, some were missing. I had to contact the manufacturer because the drawers would not go in. I'm hoping to get a good response from them but this has been the worse experience with assembling furniture, this is not my first rodeo. I actually found instructions online that were better than what was included in the package and realized it was clear that the unit was just a bad line. I could not get the drawers to go on. I followed every instruction and they just did not like up properly. I would definitely suggest the online instructions over the one that comes in the box because the one in the box just crama a bunch of steps in one picture and it's harder to follow. It seems like a really nice unit but not worth the trouble. Be sure you secure this to studs or in concrete/cinder block. It is a heavy unit and will rip through drywall.

It's a beautiful entertainment center. My son loves it (I bought it as a housewarming present for his 1st house). It was easy to assemble. It's solid and durable. The only promblem we had was fitting the light switch into the little hole on the top piece. Other than that, it's Awesome! We Love it!

I paid big bucks, but the quality is zero. The drawers are already broken and are not closing properly after just one use. The LED light at the bottom, in the middle section, is not working.

It took two days to put together. It is heavy and very difficult to put together. It requires a lot of precise measurements. Instructions don’t really help.

I bought that we paid for assembles for 4 months not installed yet

Overall product is great, thanks I would add would be two additional wood backboard Pieces.

Difficult to build as not much instruction and not clear.Good customer support

I bought this piece of furniture a month ago and they still haven't sent me everything complete. I have the boxes in my living room getting in the way while they send the missing box. the tracking number does not move to date. manhattan comfort is a mess.

Even Home Depot technician unable to assemble it waste product.

I didn't listen to the reviews.. but they were true. How HomeDepot thinks it's ok to sell a product like this is ridiculous. Don't look at the directions that come in the box. Throw them out immediately. I had to go online to find instructions that are helpful. The drawers and doors do not have holes in the right spot. Don't expect to put this together easily. Some of the pegs came chipped or as a square so they didn't fit. If it came assembled I would give it more stars.. but it gets 2 stars because I'm sure the finished product is nice.. I still wouldn't know a month later

By far the hardest furniture I’ve ever put together

It looks perfect once you have everything mounted. It took me more than 6 hours to get all the pieces together. The Instructions Manual is a bad joke because you cannot find pictures to verify what you have to install. If I knew it was going to be that hard, I would not purchased it again. It is not something easy to mount on your living room and it will demand a lot of attention to details to get it right.

I love this unit. Every time I walk into my living room I say it’s beautiful. It’s Unique

Was very easy to assemble. Absolutely love the entertainment center Very happy with it

Looks amazing in my living room, especially with my 72" TV its perfect. The bottom counter looks amazing as well, wish I could post a picture to demonstrate.

The assembly was very confusing and time consuming and some things didn’t measure right but overall it is beautiful and does what it’s suppose to do.

Looks gorgeous, very poor instructions. Had a hard time finding proper parts. But overall I feel good about my purchase. 4 stars mostly for assembly instruction

Beautiful piece. Horrible instructions

Misleading. The wall-like portion must be mounted on the wall with large equipment that causes lasting holes in your wall. It looks in the pictures like the back panel attaches to the base, but it must be mounted on the wall. And the instructions are the single most infuriating task I've even undertaken. Not worth $1 due to frustration alone.
