The rack looks beautiful in my kitchen and the price is good. However, there is minor damage to the finish on one of the metal bars on the back. Since the damage is facing the wall and no one will ever see it, I plan to keep the product. I might use some touch up paint on the exposed metal. When I put the top shelf on, I had to put the "spokes" into the holes in front first. When I tried doing the hinge first, I was unable to get the spoke into the hole. One hinge went on easily, and the other I struggled with. I suppose leaving the top shelf off is the best way for the manufacturer to pack the rack. Otherwise the top shelf would rub against the decoration on the top while in the box. Even though I had a bit of a struggle with the top shelf, I still recommend this rack. It is very sturdy, looks really pretty, and matches my bronze kitchen fixtures.
