When you're douchey enough to buy something at Pottery Barn you always refer to it by it's proper full name. So this isn't a "TV stand." Oh no. This is the Anderson Media Console. Doesn't that sound much more impressive?Normally I'm not a PB shopper. Well, not a buyer. I look at their catalogs... then go to Target, World Market or somewhere else and find roughly the same thing at a third of the price. But in my search for a TV stand... excuse me... in my search for a media console that strategy just wasn't working. Generally I think TV stands are ugly pieces of furniture, so I wanted something that didn't look like one. That you could of course still put a big ass TV on. And this looks just like the apothecary tables of yor! Long story short, I'd spotted this in a PB catalog years earlier, wanted it, never found a similar knockoff cheaper and it went on clearance. PB clearance anyway, which means it still cost too much but not WAY too much.
Sidenote: Once you've ordered something from PB, they will not stop sending you catalogs. I should have a pile of them as big as my Anderson Media Console in no time.
