Yep thats the important parameter, just how high is that base
I reckon its a fair bet that the base is melomine coated chipboard as per the lightbridge. Hopefully its a thicker gauge of wood otherwise there might be flexure issues in the base.
Also with all the bad experiences with poor packing of the lightbridges and resulting mirror damage, I want to be reassured that this model is better packed and also to know Andrews return policy should it arrive not up to scratch.
