It looks just as pictured.  It's very sturdy and it is just what I was looking for to start a little salad/herb garden.  It is a very nice size!

I'm not very mechanical, and this took me about an hour to put together by myself.  I'm not going to say it was EASY...lots of parts!  I did have to redo sections more than once...because the instructions were a little confusing.  But, I'd buy another one for sure!
