I had originally purchased another large clock that had flimsy hands that kept catching on each other. Wayfair customer service was amazing and replaced it, but the replacement was no better. My husband and I loved the look of the oversized clock so, after reading the reviews, we settled on this one. We struggled a little with joining the two halves but, once assembled, it was gorgeous! It is well constructed, and is keeping time perfectly. We are thrilled with how it looks in our space!
