Product Review (submitted on November 19, 2020):

Firstly, the turntable is beautiful. It sounds great and operates smoothly. I was nervous to setup the turntable initially, but it turned out to be much easier than I thought. Levelling the turntable wasn't the easiest, as one of the legs didn't turn very well. The leg issue might have had to do with the shipping.

The free ground shipping from UPS was absolutely terrible. The corners of the box were dented on all sides. All of the packing tape holding the flaps down the the body of the box had broken. Only the tape holding the flaps to each other was intact. I'm seriously surprised nothing fell out of the box. The packing tape needs to be much stronger and the shipper (UPS) needs to take more care with their packages. Why this box wasn't labelled fragile is beyond me.

I rated down one star because of my shipping experience. I wanted to rate it down further, but I'm pretty happy with the turntable.
