The podium is a very good quality podium. We did have a couple of problems. The assembly instructions were not clear especially when it came to installing the post surrounding the doors. Nothing in the instructions indicates the position of the hinge cutouts so it was not until after it was assembled that we realize that we had messed up on one side and had to take it all apart and make the switch. The other problem we had was that one of the door pulls was only a 3 3/8 inch on center, not the 3 1/2 inch on center that matched the pre-drilled holes in the door. I decided to purchase new handles so they would match rather than to try to make one of the pre-drilled holes larger and risk an unstable handle. Everything else was fine. The cam system works really well for the assembly.
