Aquatic Fundamentals Black Aquarium Stand with Storage Cabinet - for 10 and 20 Gallon Aquariums, 25 IN

Let me start by saying 20 gallons is in fact the limit on the stand, not 24 or 23 or 29 but 20. This is fine though because that's what is says. OK so why the three stars? The design of this stand is not so good. I have two gripes with it. First is those poles you see in the pic do not go all the way through the shelf to the base. What you see in the pic is it, so basically all the weight is on the two side pieces on the bottom. What happens is over time it causes the middle shelf to bow. This then causes the doors to not close or not open depends on your use.The second thing is if you get this thing wet and it sits for any kind of time (like 5 mins when doing a water change)it ruins the finish, it starts to blister. This is stupid seeing as it's purpose is to hold a box of water basically. So if you get any of it wet clean it up ASAP.

This is a good looking stand, and perfect for our 20 gallon axolotl tank on top and 10 gallon fish on bottom. It is sturdy and feels like good quality that will last for a long time. HOWEVER: it was a bit shorter than i expected. and the set up was a pain! Seemed like there were all these random holes not used for anything and more on one side than the other. Took us a while to figure out how to get the doors on. TIP: screw on the doors from the back holding it closed while you do so. Ours had two holes drilled on one side that kept confusing us. and make sur you follow the steps in order lol

I am pleased with the board materials, construction and directions. The stand looks very nice when assembled and tank is mounted.I do have one complaint; the pilot holes are propotionately small so that there is a tight, solid fit. However, the screws are not good enoughquality for this design. I tried several different driver heads, all the same size, until I got the tightest fit. Otherwise, the heads will strip very easily.Still, I like the completed product.

Nicely designed product . Love the cabinet where i can store all my aquarium and fish related items.The ends of the table are a little rough though.

I just put the stand together. I had no experience with material handiwork, so using the screwdrivers to screw together the heavy panels was quite an effort and took two hours. However, the parts seem sturdy and long-lasting and the stand is nice-looking. I just put an 8 gallon tank on it and it is holding up.The only thing is that the stand comes with an allan wrench, but you also need a Phillips head screwdriver, which is not included. Getting the door panels on was a little tricky at first, because you have to put one hinge of each door in before you screw on the other hinge. It's not hard to figure out, but two people would do it easier than one.

The only improvement I would make to this is to put handles on the doors. However it is currently holding a full 20 gal tank on the top and a half full 10 gal tank on the lower shelf. The entire structure is very sturdy, but the color is a black not a grey like in the picture.

Fairly easy to put together and reasonably priced. I'm not sure it could take any more than 20 gallons. Pretty much exactly what you'd expect. The doors underneath are nice to store all the things that go with fish tanks. Not a bad product for the price.

Pretty sturdy... I have a 5 gallon on the middle shelf but unfortunately with my luck I ended up with a missing pole.. so I have to wait for the missing part to come in so I could put my 20 gallon on the top shelf...
