Where to begin..
I wouldve returned this if it wasnt such a hassle. Yes, its my fault because I saw most of these flaws before starting to assemble. But, again, too much of a hassle to return and I really needed a stand for a room that needed to be set up within a certain time frame.
1) Probably about 15 scratches. I posted just a few. The longest one is right on top (pictured).
2) Gouge on the bottom (pictured) that is too noticeable that I hope I can just cover with decor.
3) Some kind of scratch or gouge that was covered up with what looks like white out, not even paint (pictured).
4) Very time consuming assembly. No words, just pictures. Im definitely a follow every direction to the last detail person, so once I was able to decipher the photos, some very difficult to understand, I was able to move onto the next step. The steps do eventually lead to a stand that would be nice and solid were it not for the, I think, preventable, flaws.
All in all, it is sturdy and everything lined up well since I really did follow the hard instructions. The drawer stuck a little but I kept pulling it in and out until it was loose enough to slide well.
Worth the money? Not really. Serves its purpose as long as you dont care about the glaring imperfections.
All scratched up and possibly a return?
