It's ok. Not terrible but not great. It was smaller than I expected (but that's probably my fault). But the construction seems cheap. We were able to put it together alright but I've attached a picture where you can see that the base leaves a lot of room between it and the drum shade. Also, we installed it with the cross bars at the bottom, which you can see in the picture. We weren't sure if this was correct or not because it doesn't look good but we were not able to install it any other way. Finally, it was SO crooked after we installed it and although the second picture shows that it is now sitting straight, it really took a lot of effort to get it like that. So, overall, it was ok but not great.
