I love this stand it's a beautiful piece once put together. My only complaints are that the directions are very vague and the different pieces are not labeled to show which piece is what number, so you really need to sit there and stare at the picture then study each piece to figure out which number it is. Which takes up a lot of time when assembling. The other issue with the directions is the pictures on where to put the hardware on the pieces are backwards. Once we started to assemble the pieces the hardware was not in the correct location so we needed to take it all apart and relocate the hardware to the correct holes that they should have been in in the beginning.
