I appreciated the detailed instructions though wasn't expecting to fully assemble the structure at purchase. Now that it is assembled, I like the stand. I do wish there were predrilled holes to secure a feed bin to the front, but that is such a minor concern. All the above being said, the stand is an affordable, durable option.

Absolutely beautiful stanchion. Goes together so fast if you have a power drill. Comes mostly assembled, the hard parts are done. I can’t wait to start training my goats to use it. I’m going to oil the wood to extend its lifespan.

Well built and well thought out stand. Instructions and predrilled holes with markings were easy to follow and we assembled in quickly. I really like the composite top. Easy to wipe up and clean. It's a little slick as our girls jump up, so may look at adding little strips for grip. I think they'll get used to it though. I also appreciate the optional feed tray being removable. Many stands don't have that option. It's a nice feature.
Had some shipping issues originally with UPS not following the handle with care stickers and breaking a piece, but Russell sent out a new headstall as a replacement. Overall pleased with the product and would recommend.

But was able to put this together very easily. Very well designed.

I should've read the instructions more carefully, as I damaged the stanchion (hopefully I can get replacement parts if the glue doesn't hold?), but aside from neglecting to remove a screw that was put in for shipping, assembly was a piece of cake. Works great for the fully grown Nigerian dwarf goats, though the ~6 month olds can work their little heads through. That issue will fix itself over time!

I’m slightly disappointed that it was damaged on delivery emailed pictures of the damage and heard nothing. Otherwise, I love the stand however that’s is a customer service fail

Easy to put together and well made!!!

Love it very well constructed easy to assemble definitely will be buying another...thank you 😀

Havent had time to use it yet. I did put thompsons water seal on it. It was easy to assemble and absolutely beautiful. It was very sturdy and I believe will last years if taken care of.
