I bought it because I believe it is the cheapest for those who wear large shoe sizes. The quality is average to good, but you get what you pay for. I wasn't very satisfied with the paint as it appeared rusty in some areas, but it stands out. It needs a good tightening from the sides where it is metal against metal, not where the planks are screwed in, to be stable. Overall, though, it is beautiful, especially with the black marble effect.
