Customer Rating: - Two Strikes on Shipment
This really isn't about the stand, since having received 2 shipments thus far, I haven't gotten a usable one. Just wanted to add my (disappointed) voice to the others who have gotten damaged boxes and missing parts.
These stands were part of the discount bundle Amazon has with the DEWALT 788 Scroll Saw. In both cases, the boxes I received were beat up badly and retaped. The first box was virtually empty, all that remained was one leg and a cross brace.The one that arrived today had a crisp 5x5 inch square hole cut in it through which someone had reached in and removed the bag of fasteners. The hole had been taped over with transparent tape, so it was obvious that the box had been tampered with. My experience has certainly made me a believer in the theory that Amazon is recycling returns. You can draw your own conclusions as to how much quality control is going on there. Hope you have better luck with the stand than I did.

Customer Rating: - Bad shipment made good, but I can't change the star rating to 3
In my initial review, I rated this product one star because it arrived as an incomplete package -- two legs and all the hardware were missing. I ordered a replacement from Amazon and it arrived after about 4 days. Out of the box, I noticed that all the finished parts were enclosed in a plastic sleave, which wasn't the case with the first shipment, so what I received was probably a canabalized return.

The stand was fairly easy to assemble, but, like another reviewer, I was perplexed that there were so many pieces. Every bolt has a nut, washer, and lock washer, and there's a lot of bolts. Deft fingers, a half-inch socket, and patience are needed to complete the assembly.

But, when done, the stand is sturdy. One confusing point - there's an adjustable (vertically) foot for the rear leg that tilts the saw downward back to front. I may take it off - anyone have any idea why it's there?

When placing the DW788 saw (which arrived broken, see my separate review of that) onto the stand, I was surprised that the saw base has little surface area contact with the stand, and that the mounting bolts go upwards from the stand top into the saw base such that the nuts and washers are visible (and snag-able). Not a big deal, just surprising given that the saw and stand are made for each other and all other stand nuts/bolts fasten with the nuts/washers being hidden.

I'm going to upgrade the stand rating from one star to three because it seems okay at this point. I'd like to see how the nuts and bolts withstand use; some engineering could remove the assembly complexity, in my opinion. Too bad Amazon won't let me change the star rating...
