My stand came partially assembled and once I had completed assembling the rest and tried to put the bbq on, something wasn't right. It took me a while to figure it out but when I did, I realized the part that came pre-assembled, was assembed upside down!! Of course I didn't have the tool it needed to be changed so I had to wait in line, during COVID-19 might I add, for an hour and spend money on a tool I'll never use again. Once I changed it, it went together so easily. Don't pre-assemble something unless you're going to do it correctly.
