Great small business, could use some tweaks on the product.
I'm rating this 5 stars, knowing it's a small business. The item is great overall but could use improvements. The eye screws are on the small side, so make sure you screw them in right with pliers or vice grips. Don't pull the rope too tight or it will break. Banda's Palette really should use slightly bigger eye screws. The way the rope is tied up on the packaging, it creates twist knots that go away if you pull the rope tight and untwist it. Can be a pain if you don't do that and easy to rip the eye screws out. Construction of the item is a bit rough. The prefab holes have splinters hanging out and didn't seem like the wood is sanded or its low quality wood. The 4 vertical boards are thin and seem flimsy. Just make sure your kids don't climb on it. The paint was also a bit tacky. Not sure it was fully cured, or humidity was trapped in the heavy amounts of stretch wrap. I have to say, it was well packaged and no scuffs in the paint from being thrown around by the shipping carrier. Understanding the cost of lumber currently, I don't blame them for using less lumber but I wouldn't mind paying more money for a sturdier product.
Rating: 5 stars
