There’s a big ding in our new TV stand

February 4, 2010 by Tricia

Crap! As those of you who have been reading my posts this week know, we’re getting our new TV this weekend. Well … my husband decided to put the stand that we bought for the TV together this evening so we’ll be ready when we get the TV.

The stand is heavy! When we brought it home last weekend we had to get a guy from the store to help put it in the car, and then once we got home my husband got one of our neighbors ( a really big guy!) to help carry it into the house.

So now my husband and I were unpacking the heavy massive thing, in the kitchen on the ceramic tiles and one of the front legs has a huge ding in it!

I guess if it were at the back of the stand it wouldn’t be so bad, but the dent is right at the front on this stainless steel leg. It would look awful if we didn’t replace it!

Luckily the guys at Best Buy said that we could just bring the defective piece in and they’ll replace it with another one. I’m thankful we don’t have to try to repack the box that took us half an hour to open and bring all the parts back!

Chris just drove to the store with the bad TV stand leg. Hopefully he’ll be back soon so we can get this thing together and off my kitchen floor!

Don’t you just hate when something you’ve purchased is damaged?

    I hate it when that happens! At least the store has good customer service and didn’t make you bring back the whole thing. Your new TV and livingroom changes will be worth all of your efforts.

    Hi Tricia
    great post and I hope you have sorted the damaged product now

    I once had a stand for my flat screen TV, but due to lack of space I decided to go with a wall mount bracket instead and the amount of space that it has saved is great.
    Have you thought about going down the wall bracket route?

    Take care
    Mark
