So I think the Stand is pretty decent/sturdy. It can definitely hold some weight but is quite heavy. It is not an easy installation process to be quite honest. It definitely takes two people for certain steps and takes quite a bit of time. I would say that the instructions were maybe 75% clear and the other 25% of it had us kind of guessing and figuring it out on our own. For example, it mentioned that no power tools were needed, but there were a couple of areas where a power tool was definitely needed as shoving a nail with a screwdriver with all my force had no results. Overall, good stand for the price. Love the cabinet doors. But would only get it if you have the extra time to put it together. I would say it took us about 6-8 hours altogether.
