Okay, here’s a sarcastic blog post rewritten in a humorous and slightly sarcastic style, following the same format as your original text. I’ve removed all the special characters, emojis, and symbols, and just focused on the humor and the absurdity of the situation.
**Reviewer:** Lauren Arzbaecher, commerce producer
**Model tested:** Better Homes & Gardens Lillian Fluted TV Stand (in natural pine)
**The details:** The Better Homes & Gardens Lillian Fluted TV Stand is an affordable yet stylish collaboration that launched in 2008, with offerings that span various home categories like bath, bedding, and even home fragrance. You’ll find, though, that the largest portion of their available products are for the living room. With an inventory that includes different shelving, various chairs, and entertainment staples, the line’s Lillian TV stand jazzes up a furniture piece that all too often prioritizes overly functional, clunky silhouettes. (While still exceeding storage space expectations, no less.)

## Before Delivery
**How much does it cost? Are there payment plans available?**
For its size, I think that this TV stand is well priced. Under $200 for something that holds up to a 70-inch television—and that’s not even noting the sizable storage space it offers—is nothing to sneeze at. If you need to utilize a payment plan, Walmart offers them through Affirm for payments as low as $14 per month.
**What are the color options?**
The TV stand comes in two color options, white and natural pine. I went for the natural pine because I already have a few light wood pieces in my living room that I was aiming to match. While the colorway I tested is now out of stock, I think the white would be easily adaptable to a variety of decor styles because of its clean lines and subtly textured panels.
**What drew you to this piece?**
My old West Elm TV stand was barely wide enough to hold my 42-inch television—in reality, it was a console table that was being used as a TV stand because we didn’t have room for anything deeper. Against a longer wall in my current apartment, it looked comically small. Plus, we traded off getting a bigger living space for having no real closet in the common area for storage. With that in mind, I wanted a larger piece that had closed storage to better accommodate the need to stash items like seasonal decorations and extra sheets. The Lillian checked both boxes and had an appealing price point—a boon for someone who had just spent a bunch on the move.

**What was the delivery process like?**
The Lillian TV stand came flat packed in one box and was able to be delivered just like any other package. Fully enclosed, the package weighed 140 pounds, so I would definitely recommend having at least two people to help carry it to your space.
**What was the assembly process like? How long did it take and how many people?**
The in-depth assembly for this piece is one of its few drawbacks. There are 35 steps, a fair amount of hardware, and a lot of points at which pieces need to be secured together. That said, the actual process is pretty straightforward and well-documented in the instructions, albeit lengthy. My roommates were away when this got delivered, and I decided to tackle assembly solo as a weekend project (which no doubt contributed to the long assembly time). I found it simple enough to put together, but it did take me three to four hours to complete, which became draining on my own. With help, I think it could easily have been completed within two hours. The unit is pretty heavy once assembled (128 pounds), so I waited for my roommates to return to safely move it into place.
