It's my fault I didn't read everything but the stands weren't included. Despite the fact that there are shelves in the first picture. However, the tension rings that were supplied were very flimsy and did not hold the fabric very well. I also have a lot of protruding threads on the edges of the fabric. I feel like between the photos they post and what they say about them, there's kind of a misleading idea of what you're selling first and then your other photos of how it should be set up.
