Solid, but really hard to assemble properly
The flat-pack table is heavy! I had to "walk" it up the stairs to my first-floor flat.The assembly instructions are truly awful, an obvious attempt to save money by compressing them, making them very hard to understand. One has to guess.There are 14 screws. I had to use a gimlet and a small-head screwdriver to increase the size of the holes in the wooden table top, before I could get anywhere screwing the self-locking screws in. Even then, because of the positioning of the holes, so close to the metal sides, I haven't been able to screw all the screws in fully. I couldn't enlarge the holes in the metal parts; so, I could properly screw in only some of the screws. Again, the positioning of the holes prevented me from fully screw in the screws. And, because I can't see where all the black screws should be inside the black interior of the table, I don't know where the 14th screw belongs.The makers need to adapt the design, to get rid of the screws, and to use instead bolts, blocks, and Allen keys.What I need to do is find someone who has teensy but inhumanly strong hands.I spent over five hours trying to properly assemble the table. I've done as much as I can. It looks fairly stable, but I daren't put my 22 kg printer on it.With the help of a friend who screwed the screws in tightly, the unit is truly rugged and safe for my printer to stand on.If you're very patient and can work with abysmal instructions, poor pre-pricked screw holes, and difficult screwdriver work, you'll be very pleased with the result. You'll need a fairly long-handled Philips screwdriver that has the right-size head for the screws and, for easier assembly of the unit, someone to help you.

Easy enough, but packaging not up to the job
Nice enough table/trolley (the wheels are optional but useful if you need to move it) but let down by the packaging. A couple of the panel edges were a bit bent (I could bend them back straight enough and they are effectively out of sight so it doesn't really matter). The most disappointing bit is that there was a big gouge/scratch on the silvery metal on the front, which is rather obvious. Can't be bothered to send back as I've built it now.Building it was fine (I was a bit worried after all the reviews about this), but you do need the correct size screwdriver. It's a much larger head than most normal screwdrivers (size 3 in the UK).

It has larger casters than normally found on units of this kind which is good. The only adverse comment I have is that ...
Quite a hefty piece of kit. You realy need a long Phillips screwdriver in order to assemble this unit. I used a screwdriver with a long shaft with another one through to hole in the handle to act as a tommy bar as the screws require quite a lot of effort to tighten. Owing to my having arthritic hands I would of had problems locating the screws into the rear of the top, however, I used a pair of locking tweasers to hold the screws whilst starting to screw them in. I retrospect it would probably been easier to assemble if I had screwed the screws into there respective holes before assembly in order for them to cut there thread and then put the unit together.It is a very stable unit, it supports my 3D printer on top with a heavy Samsung lazer printer on the lower shelf with no problems.It has larger casters than normally found on units of this kind which is good.The only adverse comment I have is that it is, in my eyes, a tad overpriced considering it is a Chinese import.

Really sturdy great quality printer trolly
This is a very sturdy printer trolley, no problem holding my large Epsom A3 printer. Moves easily on the castors, there is plenty of room underneath to hold my other smaller printer and still plenty of room for paper and other supplies, also has a really handy side pocket. It's not the cheapest but definitely worth every penny. I would definitely recommend this

Bewward: Can't be assembled with a screwdriver, as they claim
The stand itself is OK, but as others here have said the setup instructions are impossible with a screwdriver. Spent hours trying to hollow out holes to get the screws to fit. And it's too tight to use a drill. In the end we used a screwdriver attachment on a socket set. But if we'd not had that we would have had to buy one.

Five Stars
Excellent, very well engineered, sturdy. Easily holds a large multi-function printer/scanner. Straight-forward to put together.

Nice item
Easy to put together, sturdy and does the job as expected. Used it for 2 printers (one on top, one on a shelf). The only thing lacking is a good way to organise the cables.

It does what I wanted. A good buy.
It was easy to assemble and sturdy. Just what I wanted until I tried to put in the adjustable shelf which did not fit the space!! Anyway, in retrospect, I could not have used the printer on the bottom shelf if the shelf had been in as the paper tray is at the back and it is difficult enough to load the paper even without the shelf!
