Evaluation

You can assemble this product with only a rubber hammer. This unique assembling method makes this product distinctive from other products. The benefit of this product is that a user can experience DIY for home and office use at moderate cost. The top and structural painting are finely finished, and its stable metal processing is also impressive. In addition, notice that the designer carefully tries to reduce the amount of packing materials. If more color varieties, such as black and natural-wood color, are added besides the current white, this product can be adopted in many diverse places.
