If the words WTF were in a box! If I had read the reviews before buying this I wouldn’t have. Granted it looks nice after it’s put together HOWEVER putting it together was a nightmare! After the first 1.5hrs of breaking into a sweat and cussing I had to put it down and walk away! I started reading the reviews and someone mentioned needle nose pliers but he didn’t go into detail. So I wasn’t sure which part he meant. But after my 2hr break I came back and still it took another 1.5 to get it. 

So if you purchase this without reading reviews first. When you finally get all the poles together and you’re on the very bottom stand. Use Needle nose pliers (or in my case tweezers) to turn the nut instead of the tool they gave. Get as tight as you can and then use the tool to make it tighter. 
Hope this helps someone
