I was looking for something to keep my sterilizer and hot towel warmer off the floor in my salon.  This was an inexpensive way to fill that need, and works fine for what I am using it for. There were no assembly instructions, however, it took less than 5 minutes to figure out and put together.  I would not say this is particularly attractive and it is not something I would use in my home, but it works perfectly fine for what I needed to use it for.  The support poles are plastic, and the wood grain laminate looks like cheap laminate, although for the price it is about what I expected.
