Overall, its a great little shelf! Very sturdy once assembled, Im not afraid to load it up with potted plants. Was a smidge tricky to get started assembling with one person, but once the first 4 screws were in, it went fine. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 were some cosmetic issues some gaps in the paint job where the raw wood was showing on the shelves, and some big dings in the legs where chunks of wood were missing and still painted over. Seems like a quality control issue, but oh well. Im pretty pleased with it for the solid structure and price point!
