The reviews are correct in that the instructions are difficult to follow. It took much longer than it should have to put together - that's the only reason it's not getting 5 stars. It is very sturdy and once you get the right floor to ceiling adjustment, it's not coming down. Love that it has hooks for my buff pad and razor, and a soap dish which I don't use for soap, rather, body wash bottles that are low on product and less stable.
