Anyone bought a stand from glass cages?

Hey guys
I'm planning on picking up a stand from glass cages. Has anyone gotten stands from them? Your thoughts?
Also, does anyone know any other stores that sell 8' by 2' stands?
Thanks

While I can't answer your second question, I do have a 45 gallon tank and oak stand from glass cages and it's very well made. About the only issue I have with it, and it's not that big a deal, is that the front door is not on hinges: you actually have to slide it up and then out. Also, the backing is solid, so if you want to run electrical/plumbing into the stand, you have to drill holes. If I had to do it over again, I would still buy from them.

Two of my friends just bought stands from them along with there 55 gallon rimless Starfire tanks. They like them a lot. The only issue they claim to have is that the upper trim has a large gap between the trim in the tank. This probably won't be as prevalent with a tank that has a rim. Just remember the stand is unfinished so they need a light sanding, stain, and poly coat.
