I think this was way overpriced.  Putting it together was kind of a drag; but I expected to have to do that.  However, I did not expect the brackets to be so poorly welded that they are actually crooked.  Also, the holes do not line up well.   If I had to do it all over again...I wouldn't.  In my opinion, it's just too expensive of a plant stand to have these issues (I also cannot get it to sit level on my floor to save my life).  Disappointed.
