The construction is very stable and aesthetically pleasing. Have the stand completed with a larger plate and can even use it as a high desk for writing now. The mounting of the table top made of metal was something hakelig but is nevertheless successful. The on the inside of the plate around attached foam tape was adhered a little sloppy, but could be corrected. Thanks to the other reviewers about the weaknesses in the plastic covering for the height adjustment. Since I am so far handled carefully, it is still intact.
