I'm very happy with this stand. I was looking for awhile, and this one fit the bill 100%. Just a note that "natural" means bamboo. When installing it, I did have two issues: one of the pre-drilled holes was a but off center, which meant that I couldn't attach one of the shelves to the pole/stand perfectly (there's a gap), and one of the shelves started to crack when I turned the screws too tight. Even then.... don't care. 5 stars. sturdy, compact, cute, and can withstand three heavy potted plants. Love it.
