Product came in two boxes, which were intact, no damage. Easy to put together. The shade was a bit crooked when screwed to the tripod. So my husband wrapped a rubber band around the base of the screw to support the slight gap. Color was great, no distressed look. Got it during sale which made it even better. Will eventually work on hiding the cord that runs down the middle of the tripod.

Pros: great value for the expensive look
Cons: Cord showing
