55 gallon aquarium stand, July 11, 2009
This review is from: Ameriwood 55-Gallon Aquarium Stand (Kitchen)
This ia a nice sized product with a decent amount of storage space, and it looks nice. The size is good. The main negatives are that it came with several scratches, takes over an hour to put together and, most importantly, if it gets any water on it that doesn't get wiped off very quickly, there will be a slight amount of bubble damage at the surface (not a great quality for an aquarium stand). However, if aware of this and careful to clean up quickly, it isn't a major problem, and the scratches were easily covered with a mood marker pen. Overall, it is a good product for the money.

The Stand That Stands Up, April 26, 2010
This review is from: Ameriwood 55-Gallon Aquarium Stand (Kitchen)
This is a nice looking, sturdy stand. Perfect for the purpose. Accepting the fact that this item is being shipped to me I accepted the reality that the box would have to withstand some man-handling. Upon arrival the box was in good shape. I guess this item is too heavy to throw around; helps to have another person to move it into the house. The only issue that I have with the product is its packaging. The top board showed some wear on its surface. Looks like friction wore an inch of the wood stain off. I touched it up but an aquarium will be covering this spot so it isn't a huge deal. One other board had a nick in it but the section with the blemish is concealed by another board. Bottom line: I would recommend this stand. It's easy to put together, and it looks great.

Physically holds an aquarium... but made of cheap cardboard., June 20, 2010
This review is from: Ameriwood 55-Gallon Aquarium Stand (Kitchen)
The pieces where chipped when i opened the box, and as i put it together, i found out the door panels were merely glued on and they popped right off! However, customer service must realize how crappy their product is because they were very accommodating with sending out replacements. It does look nice from afar, and just like in the picture, but i really am not joking when i say that it is made of material just slightly more sturdy than cardboard. I would NOT recommend it at all. And i certainly wouldn't pay more than $50 as it does technically hold up an aquarium. Update: 11/15/11 So i never actually put on the new doors they shipped to me figuring i ultimately didn't care how crappy it looked. Now i am trying to sell my aquarium and all this accessories so i went to open up the box with the new doors and to my dismay the new doors are in the exact same condition as my original! The little vertical panels are practically falling off with the glue plainly visible! This company obviously takes produces crap.
