Waterbox stand is uneven after assembly

[meermann]

Hi guys,
few months ago I got a new Waterbox Peninsula 4820 stand. Bought it from the manufacturer with the huge discount, it was completely new though and arrived well-packed.
After assembly I noticed the stand is a bit uneven. So there are small gaps (1-2mm) and some plywood parts doesn't fit perfectly, looks like they are bent in the middle. There's only one way to assembly it, so I just tightened the screws and left it as is. I'm disappointed with the quality, but perhaps it's OKish for that price.
But how dangerous it could be? It must be able to hold at least 350 kg.
Should I do something to improve the stand?
The doors aren't mounted yet.

Bent parts? Pic or explain better.

Have you tried to loosen everything, set it, and re-tighten?

Have you put a level on it? That’s what I would be concerned about and if it’s level I wouldn’t worry. There’s no such thing as perfect and it looks good/normal to me.

Example: 1st and 2nd pictures, horizontal part just below tabletop: fit perfect to tabletop. 3rd picture, the same part bulged by around 1-2mm in the middle of tabletop.
Also the big vertical side part on the first picture isn't aligned perfectly with the tabletop. Although it's not bent, just mispositioned.

Yes, I tried to reassembly, but without success. When I tighten the screw, the parts are being slipped a bit. There are eccentric connectors, some torque always presents and perhaps it leads to moving the parts against each other (not a huge movement, just 1-2mm)

Yeah, the tabletop and rear panels are levelled, and the tabletop itself looks flat. I even believe this imperfection will not be noticeable, because it's in the corner next to the wall. Just worried a bit because of aquarium weight

They move when tightened it sounds like. Can you try to 1/4 torque, 1/2 torque, full torque all the joints? So go around and do 1/4 torque all the joints, then 1/2 all around, then finish. Sometimes that helps from keeping things from moving. I was a machine told builder for many years and this always helped.
Not sure if it would work, my ocd would try to get it all squared up before filling it. Wouldn't want to be a year in and have to take it apart again.
