Title: Poor quality but works okay.
Product review: Once the stands are together, they work okay--it's the construction process that's frustrating. Even though I had read several online reviews that warned against screwing the top and bottom plates too firmly into place, I couldn't believe how little effort it took to split the wood on the uprights. And I was being careful!!! I had to disassemble the thing, add wood glue, put on a clamp, and then revisit the situation after the glue had dried. Very high annoyance factor. But, as I said, they do work once they're together and are, in fact, more stable than I thought they'd be. That's why they get a second star.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
