I bought this stand and after trying to fully assemble it I advise you to find another stand. The quality of the manufacturer is disgusting. As an example, I had to use a vise to straighten the tabs on the legs of the stand so they fit flush against the center shaft. Second, I had to use the vise again to squeeze the leg, which is a U channel, just enough to align the mounting screw holes. It's not worth the trouble, IT'S CHARACTER!
