The unit finish is a dark chocolate cherry. In combination with the silver-tone handles, hardware and pulls complete the look of this TV unit. This piece of furniture has been designed in a manner that allows it to fit in well with decor in both contemporary style and more traditional styles . The TV stand is capable of accommodating both 36 inch older, box-style televisions and 60 inch flat-screen television.

The back, which is constructed of solid wood, has well positioned holes cut out for wiring.

The Bush Furniture Sonoma TV Stand weighs just under 200 pounds. As with all
wooden TV stands, this is considerably heavier than the average pressed particle board stands. When the TV stand is delivered, there should be more than one person available to move the package into the home. Assembling this unit takes both time and patience. While the directions are clear, concise and easy-to-read, there are many small parts. Each peg is glued into place on the unit. Assembly can be done alone within about 3 to 5 hours. The unit construction is solid and the stand will easily last for many years. It comes with an impressive six-year warranty on all parts, excluding the glass.
Now one or two of the little niggles. While up to six extra peripherals such as DVR and cable boxes, gaming systems and audio-visual components will fit on the shelves behind the glass doors, larger pieces such as receivers might not fit. Additionally, while there are holes cut out of the back wooden panel for wires, there is little overall ventilation. The center shelves are small and are not designed for components or speakers. However, remotes, DVDs, CDs and television guides fit well on those shelves.
