Southern Enterprises Antebellum Two-Tone Media Stand Review

Decent stand. Looks about as nice as you can get for the price.
Everything in this price range is Medium Density Fiberboard and the product is properly labeled here as MDF with Veneer. ANything solid wood is gonna cost more than twice as much. The veneer basically means all of the touchable surfaces after assembly are wood with fiber cores (except possibly the middle shelves). The down side of the MDF is that it's pretty heavy and less durable than wood of course.

Even expecting and knowing the limitations of MDF there are a few things they could have done a bit better. Because of the MDF it's not really sturdy enough to use an electric screwdriver on the pre-drilled holes. And it's often difficult to tell when using an electric screwdriver when the screw is all the way in and if you keep going it can tear the wood. On the other hand, most of the connections are drilled for you with bits to screw into, with the notable exception of the magnets that hold the doors closed. It would have been nice if they were pre-drilled.

The magnets are also a little too high to make a good seal with the metal plate on the doors. It really needs a spacer or something above the magnet to make both parts of the magnet connect solidly with the door. The result is that you have to shut the doors very gently otherwise they bounce open again.

I also feel that the cable hole is not quite big enough int he back. If you have multiple component or composite cables that need to go through it gets a bit tight. If all you have is a few power cables and hdmi, you're probably fine.

I kind of wish it had two shelves int he middle instead of one, but that's mostly because it's hard to stack things on top of a ps3...

I also kind of wish there was a thicker solid backing instead of a thin sheet, but it does serve it's purpose and that would make it heavier.

That said it does hold my 80lb 55" TV very well and looks very nice. (The TV has a thin bezel so it's a few inches narrower than the stand.) I did a ton of searching for a two-tone piece that would match my other furniture and this fit the bill. I wish there were more furniture with this visual style.
