Firstly, this thing is HEAVY. But if you are lucky enough, as I was, to have a helpful and willing delivery driver, you’ll soon have the biggest, heaviest jigsaw puzzle ever lying on your lounge room floor. That said, it was relatively easy to assemble, even if I had to plan out a couple of moves ahead due to the unit’s weight and size. But it’s a quality, well made and designed unit, and it looks great! The two end bays have strong, adjustable shelves and, incredibly, are wide enough for the biggest amplifiers, two of which I use daily. It’s low enough to sit our tv screen on, and wide enough to accomodate my turntable too. The unit is also so stable that no matter how much I jump up & down on our timber floor, the turntable is not affected, AND there is almost no low frequency feedback or audible vibration during said jumping sessions! This is a first for me in over 50 years of vinyl playing - first time I’ve been able to sit my deck (Rega P6 w/Nd7) straight onto a piece of furniture without resorting to using acoustic dampeners.
It wasn’t cheap, but this big beautiful thing is the most satisfying, and useful, piece of furniture I’ve ever bought, and it’ll do me now for life.
Just hope I don’t ever need to move house again. 😩
Absolutely gorgeous
Love it.
Bought 1 for a gift as well.
The cabinet arrived damaged. Clearly dropped at some point in transit. All the corners of the timber on one side (when packed) have been crushed in.
Aside from that, I also bought the TITAN HiFi Vinyl Dark Oak Entertainment Rack by Tauris and it was perfect.
I ended up finishing the build on both units as I dont have time to mess around and they are great, except for the damage.
Several years ago we bought this same model online, not from Home Living, (a 60L oven being impossible to find in any store), and it did exactly what we wanted until eventually, long after the warranty expired, 2 of the heating bars failed. Rather than try to find a repairer out here in the sticks, we ordered an exact copy. The checkout and payment was very simple, the item easily tracked and quick to arrive. Unfortunately the box and the oven were damaged in transit. However, when we complained we were happy with the response from Home Living, particularly James, who promptly organised a replacement which arrived quickly and is working perfectly. My only grumble is that we always have to listen for the thermostat to click in order to know when the oven has finished pre-heating. There is no light which goes off to tell you. That is a minor grumble and we love the oven! It is lightweight so sits easily on a shelf at eye-level and with its internal light it is easy to check on progress inside.
I had the unit delivered and the guy left it outside leaning against my garage they did not ring the doorbell or knock on the door to advise the delivery as we were home at the time, I assembled the unit over the weekend to discover multiple parts damaged mainly corners but also some other areas I was very disappointed and had to wait a long time for delivery as I'm in NSW and it came from WA
