Very sturdy, which is what I was after. Consequence: heavy.
The base is proud, so if you fall on it: ouch.
The upright part comes in two pieces and two uses threaded fasteners to keep it from lifting out. One fastener went in without any problems w/ the included Allen wrench. The second... IDK if it was drill offset or the tapping was a bit wonky, but I couldn't get it home without a cheater pipe. I tried finding the thread by hand, but no luck. I completely chowdered the threads and had to gronk on it a fair bit. It's holding just fine, and the force is downwards--the fastener is not carrying it.
Overall, it's a big, sturdy stand. Get your muscles out to move it.
