The open shelves are optimal when using the bench for TV/cable boxes as there are no doors or drawers to disturb the signal from the remote controls.

Hide messy cables from chargers, devices and decorative lighting by leading them through the outlets in the back.

The frame is easier to assemble thanks to the clever construction with wedge dowels that are conveniently pressed into the pre-drilled holes.

To assemble the VIHALS TV unit, follow these steps:

1. Locate the pre-drilled holes on the frame pieces. The clever wedge dowel construction makes assembly easier.

2. Firmly press the wedge dowels into the pre-drilled holes on the frame. This will help secure the shelves in place.

3. Adjust the position of the shelves to your desired height by sliding them into the frame. Make sure they are level.

4. For the drawers, slide them into the frame openings, ensuring they move smoothly in and out. Check that the maximum weight capacity of 11 lbs per drawer is not exceeded.

5. Finally, hide any messy cables by routing them through the openings at the back of the unit. This will keep your TV and media setup looking neat.

Let me know if you have any other questions! I'm happy to provide more detailed guidance to ensure you can successfully assemble your VIHALS TV unit
