The pros of this item: well made, packaged well, heavy and stable.

The cons: I thought I was buying a warm color wood hall tree, not grey. I should have looked at reviews (my fault, but then again it wasn't as advertised).  It actually looked horrible, like someone slapped some what appears to be chalk paint on it to make the wood look weathered.  We put it together and I put a little water on a rag and the paint started to come off (very happy).  With some elbow grease and a bristle brush, It showed a nice a nice warm wood underneath that in a way looks naturally weathered (picture attached).  I still have to finish it and possibly seal it.  I give 3 stars because I was not anticipating a project now.  Real bummer.
