This stand arrived with no visible damage, however after opening it was obvious that serious damage had occurred and the stand could not be assembled. Wayfair customer service was great and shipped out a replacement the following day. When the replacement arrived, there was again some damage to the same parts. This time the damage was not as bad and I was able to make some repairs and assemble the stand. It looks like the one pictured and is very sturdy. This item is not properly packaged from the manufacturer. It's a good looking quality stand, but will hesitate to order anything else from this manufacturer in the future. That said, I can't say enough to compliment Wayfair customer service. They were professional, knowledgeable and friendly. This was my first order, but I'll be buying more very soon.

Pros: Solid and good looking.
Cons: Poorly packaged.
