The assembly of this towel rack was a bit nerve racking.  You do need to have a rubber mallet which is not included although the Allen wrench needed is.  I found the metal parts flimsy and plastic.  They used metal rods that are placed inside the bottom plastic Rods to give the rack some stabilizing weight.  The tray is a lightweight compressed wood-I am concerned about how it will hold up if water drips off towels or in high humidity.  When put together it does look sleek like the photos.  I would be surprised if the rack held up well with constant use in a bathroom. Only time will tell
