Review on 4PCS SMARTSTANDARD 28" Metal Hairpin Coffee Table Legs - Industrial Home DIY Projects For Furniture, Bench, Desk & More by Charles Mathews

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor Paint job. Wrong Screws

Overall, the product is well made and consistent from one leg to the next. The price is fair. I bought a total of two sets, 8 legs total, so I got a relatively decent sample size to review. The welds were not necessarily pretty but appropriate for the price point. They were consistent and appeared to be reasonably well cleaned. There was no welding splatter on any of the metal work. The two major issues that I had with the product was first that the screws they supplied are basic drywall screws. They have a tapered head, but the predrilled Hall was not taper to receive the screw . Please see the photograph. The legs should have been supplied either with panhead screws or a countersunk hole to receive tapered screws. I ended up purchasing my own screws separately which is why I gave three out of five stars for the ease of installation. My other complain about the cheap screws is that while they are black, they do not match the finish of the legs. My other problem was that several of the 8 legs I purchased had either chipping, peeling or rough pain on the edge of the base. Interestingly on every leg that had this defect it occurred at the same location. This leads me to believe that they are handling the legs or resting the legs during the paint process in a way that's leading to this defect . This was very disappointing and I had to spray paint the edges of the legs in order to conceal the bare metal. That in my opinion is simply sloppy craftsmanship and suggests poor quality control.
