It’s pretty good quality and looks just like the picture (I got the bronze base finish). Heavy in the packaging, I had to open it downstairs and carry it up to my unit piece by piece. I built mine on my own out of necessity, but if you can, have someone around to help you out. Mine turned out uneven because I didn’t have a rubber mallet to secure the poles into their plastic connecters. And the extension pieces didn’t fit underneath the top board as shown. So definitely have a rubber mallet handy. Also, there was a recommended instructional video I did not use - maybe if I had, I would have gotten better results.
