I’ve had it about 2 weeks. As had been said several times here. The base is way to thick to fit into my table.  Have had a hard time finding a appropriate base.  If a wind comes up it tips over even with weight on the base. It’s very heavy and hard to manage if you want to flip it to an angle.  This morning it wouldn’t open. Collar at top has popped out. For someone with arthritis  chronic pain, not a good choice.  Considering returning but not sure how much of a hassle that will be.
