The top of the stand is beautifully designed with a ridge that holds the plant in place so it doesn't slip off.  It is the perfect height for placing in front of a window.  The only thing I didn't like was that the assembly was harder than one would imagine.  The holes where screws were to be placed for the bottom shelf were so small that it took a lot of muscle to screw them in.  I had to request the help of my son-in-law when I thought I'd be able to do it myself

Pros: Great design
Cons: Screw holes for bottom shelf too small making it hard to assemble
