After my second purchase and second time setting up this model but the shorter 48" version I enjoyed this one more than the large 72" shelf version. You can read my other review on that because its lengthy. This shorter 48" version feels more solid and rigid because its weight and strength isn't stretched out as far. Its smaller and fits into a lot more places in your home. I originally expected thicker heavier metal the 1st purchase, but its as thin as they could get away with being partial premium quality. So no surprises this second time, its not the best, but way better than the rest offered on amazon. The 48" is better than the longer version in my opinion.
