Okay, this stand arrived in the strangest packaging I have ever seen. Two boxes, taped together, and in terrible shape with just a little bit of padding on the footing. I was really surprised any company would mail something and feel proud of that reaching customers. That said, besides a couple bumps that don't bother me, the stand did arrive timely and is what we were looking for. We have it in the center of our bathroom counter, between the two sinks. It holds quite a lot for its size.
