Very well built but not too bulky. The company sends you everything you need to get started. The only draw back it that there is a lip (for stacking purposes) so you need to get the base if it is going to rest on the countertop. If you want it right at the edge of your counter then the lip can hang over but I was uncomfortable with that. If it is loaded with slides then it probably would be ok. Instead I went to Home Depot and bought a package of plastic bases and put them on the conrner and it worked great ($3)
