VEVOR Wood Podium, 23.6" x 47.2", Lecterns and Podiums w/ 4 Rolling Wheels, Slant Surface, Baffle Plate & Shelf, Easy Assembly Walnut Lecterns for Church, Office, School, Home

This was easy to assemble and modify to add a speaker. Really looks beautiful on the stage area. Everyone loves the color and sturdiness of this cabinet. The rollers were a much needed part requested by the maintenance crew.

Oh, where to begin... The shipping box looked pretty beaten up (Samsonite luggage commercial comes to mind – google it) but it was all taped along the seams so it appeared to be more or less intact. When I opened the box, however, the carnage inside was extensive. The molded Styrofoam packaging was broken up so severely that there were portions of the packing so pulverized and electrostatically charged that it stuck to anything and everything it came in contact with. The agitated stuff literally flew out of the box. It took me HOURS to clean up the Styrofoam’s party mess with pieces of the white clinging stuff still appearing randomly everywhere like magic. Then there was the condition of the actual podium. The surfaces of nearly every panel were scuffed, scratched, or chipped. But the podium countertop was the piece that must have taken a direct hit because the nailed pieces that assembled the counter top were all askew from each other with the nails between the pieces bent in "S" shapes.Amazingly, the hardware packet was intact so you see there, children? Miracles really can come true. The instruction sheet, ha-ha. The instructions sheet, ha-ha. That's right boys & girls, a single 8.25” by 11.75” instruction sheet printed on one side shows the complete assembly instructions in 6 "easy" steps. The instructions were completely useless. The parts list (included on the same instructions page) did not even remotely match the contents of the bag of hardware. If you are bored out of your mind and enjoy 3 Dimensional puzzles this box of tricks will make your day! They did include a 3.5” long Phillips screwdriver in the hardware packet so that's a nice touch. I guess that's their cherry on top. You have to hand it to the folks that sell this podium; they do have an incredibly wicked sense of humor. Now, seriously, Don't. Buy. It. You have been warned.

As others have mentioned, for the price, it's a decent podium. The instructions are minimal, but unless this is your first assembly job you'll be fine. You will probably need a mallet to place the pin connectors in their holes so you can then screw them in. I have 2 complaints. 1 - this product comes covered in dust and the Styrofoam used in packaging crumbles if you look at it. Get your vacuum and wet wipes as you'll need to spend about 5 minutes cleaning the product and the floor before starting assembly. And have fun if you want to install the caster wheels. You will need a drill to start holes so you can use the screws, and if you place the casters at the 4 corners, where they are supposed to go, you'll need to drive a couple of screws at angles.

Good starter podium for my wifes church. Very sturdy. Was missing 1 screw and the instructions were crap. Hence 4 stars. Otherwise I would give it 5.

THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT CAME WITH THIS THING ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO USE- HONESTLY HOW HARD IS IT TO WRITE SOMETHING PEOPLE CAN UNDERSTAND. THE DESCRIPTION INCLUDED: "EASY TO ASSEMBLE" NOT SO. I HAVE EMAILED AND CALLED THE SELLER --NO RESPONSE.FIND ANOTHER PRODUCT YOU WILL BE HAPPIER

To be fair, this is one of the lowest cost options on the market for a podium. Be prepared to interpret the vague assembly instructions that consist of two small pictures and a few arrows. If you have a Jenga expert available, secure their help before assembly.

We needed this for our small chapel and it came damaged. We will have to make the best of it. Very disappointing.

DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!!No holes line up with other parts of the product. it is impossible to build as intended.

Sturdy, using it for a hostess stand.

Sehr sehr schlechte Verarbeitung,absolut keine Kaufempfehlung

Acquisto pessimo molti sgraffi , montaggio impossibile i fori non si trovano taglio obbligo penoso , istruzioni praticamente inutili molto deluso !!!!

Ordered the product in June and it arrived on time. It wasn't needed until September so we left it in the box for safe keeping. When we opened the box to put it together, we saw that the product was damaged even though the box was in tact. Since it was past the 30 days, I contacted the manufacturer. Within a couple weeks, they sent a new one, which was great. Unfortunately, the second one was just as damaged. I requested a refund from the manufacturer and they said that refunds are only from Amazon.
