Confused about first shelf indentations

My cabinet was put together by an engineer and a software developer. For whatever reason, the bottom shelf is not a smooth shelf but has indentations, which are annoying. The indentations are on top and bottom of board, so it isn't flipped. Can't understand it. Maybe Simpli Home can help?

Solid wood. A great piece of furniture.

Solid wood. The instructions were well written, all parts labeled and extra hardware was included in the box. We love it.

Handsome piece of furniture for a small space

I love the look of this Artisan TV Stand cabinet. The color is perfect, a deep walnut color. The overall structure is sturdy. The size is perfect for my small space. I like the glass door features and the drawers are surprisingly roomy. The adjustable shelves perfect for differing heights if needed.

Very good product; looks great in my finished basement

Easy to assemble; There was a chip on one of the drawers that I was able to hide with a black magic marker. I didn't want to disassemble it to get a refund after I noticed the chip.

Great quality, beautiful

I bought two of these to go on either side of my newly installed fireplace. They look gorgeous! They are very nice quality and have plenty of storage. I couldn’t be happier!

Easy to put together; mediocre value.

The materials are good and it goes together pretty easily. Some of the edges don’t line up perfectly. The directions are clear. That said, for what we paid, we would rather not have to put furniture together ourselves.

[Rewarded Review] Hard work pays off

Me and my boy got this stand to keep our baby from getting our t.v so we wanted something nice and tall. It looks great. Only thing I would say is that it definitely takes two people to put together and not all the holes that are pre drilled line up correctly so you have to be very care and putting the doors on is kinda tricky.... Need a flash light to see the holes to line it up correctly because the holes are drilled so tiny where the hinge attaches to the wood. Other than that I would so it's very nice looking and strong so far.

Good height and storage tv stand

Great colour! Well packed but should be in two boxes due to weight. Love solid wood.

I added this piece during a complete condo re-design. It worked perfectly in the smaller space, and with the client's transitional decor. The piece required assembly, which I hired someone to do. There is plenty of storage in this media stand - it really holds a lot, and it easily accommodated a big-screen TV. The neutral color is very versatile and it looks more expensive than it is. Definitely a nice piece at a great price! Very pleased.

[Rewarded Review] Beautiful media stand with roomy cabinet space

Beautiful media stand with roomy cabinet space. Sturdy and decent quality. Assembly was required, but it came out great. One of the shelves was shipped with deep scratches. Since it's inside, it's not visible,
