Anyone got this Almada TV unit?

[Rybo89]

Odd request...

Does anyone have this TV unit?:

If so could you please take a picture of it and upload it.

Seems a good price at £223 and the seller has great feedback (eBay shop). Just i rather see a proper picture of it that hasn't been played with in photoshop before i buy it.

Thank you.

Did you end up getting one of these?

I'm looking at this one at the moment:

As you say lots of excellent feedback on ebay and they look fantastic. A couple of comments suggest that they are quite fiddly to assemble, but most people seem very happy.

I ended up ordering the one above - due to take delivery today. I'll post a pic once it's assembled if you're still interested?

Is this the german guys on eBay?

I'm very tempted by some of their sideboards, has anyone had any dealings with them yet?

Is it made from chipboard? Looks nice in the pictures, but I wont buy any more chipboard furniture as it's useless.

EDIT: Seems its made from MDF, better but not great.

For the price it looks good. MDF is a lot better than chipboard though. I'm quite tempted, but the wife hates it

Hi, yes I put this up last week, but I'm in the US at the moment so haven't had chance to take any pics. It wasn't too bad to assemble - instructions could have been better and it took ages (nearly 3 hours).

It is ok quality - I wouldn't say it was any better or worse than an average Ikea tv stand such as the Besta.

The main central shelf that has the PS on in the picture does not have any holes for cables at the back. We're not using it for any device though so not a major problem for us, but thought I'd mention it.

The cupboard doors also close with a bit of a slam which I don't like and you don't get any cushioning pads with it so will have to buy some of them.

I find it bizarre that all of this company's product images aren't photos, but computer renders. Not one of them is an actual photo.

The eBay listingsseem to have plenty of photos last time I looked

They do make some decent looking furniture, i'm struggling to find a decent tv cabinet for my cinema build, think i may take a punt on one of these.

Does anyone of pics of them in their house, any idea what the build quality is like?

I had a look through them, they're all renders.
