They arrived well-packaged and in good condition. They're pretty sturdy, with smooth tops and nicely rounded edges. The wood grain is mostly nice -- but of course with real, solid wood you're not going to get perfectly grained wood unless you pay an arm and a leg. I think these are a good value for the money. The storage stand was easy to assemble, and the trays serve their purpose well.My only quibble with them is they do not lock into place when opened, so they can collapse when you lift or move them. I solved this flaw by attaching strips of adhesive velcro to both the moveable dowel and the attached wood piece underneath each tray (if this sounds confusing, it makes sense once you upend the tray), so the velcro holds the tray open when the two pieces are in contact. To fold the tray back up, I just un-velcro them, and voila!Happy with my purchase.
