I searched all over to find an attractive plant stand. This plant stand was more attractive and taller than most. However, it is not the most sturdy. While you can put larger pots on here (9" diameter), there's still a lot of wiggle. I thought adding more weight to the base would help, but it doesn't solve the issue. That being said, it hasn't tipped in the last 6 months, even with the cats occasionally getting into the plants.  Overall, it's attractive, but I'd only buy it again if I couldn't find a better alternative.
