I am giving this product a high rating even though the first two stands we received had something wrong with them.  The problem was not I feel in the product itself but rather the shipment.  My reason for rating high is because it is an absolutely beautiful stand, heavy and durable.  It arrived quickly and upon finding a crack in the base, we were immediately sent a replacement.  Unfortunately the second stand had the same thing wrong but once again we were quickly sent a replacement with no hassles.  Customer service is outstanding and I am extremely happy with the product.
