This is a great example of getting better execution because the cost of mfg is lower elsewhere (China). You get some serious weight steel channels, nicely welded and painted. Some assembly required. But pretty straight forward. One drawback is that when disenaging the casters, depending on their rotational orientation, the frame lowers onto the caster roller itself and thereby suspends the frame from the floor, preventing the sticky feet from touching. So, you have to twist or kick the rollers to the right orientation to get the stationary feet onto the floor
