Thank you for viewing. I purchased this item here about six months ago, and used it for about three months. There are no noticeable scratches or stains. I washed and dried it after each use. There are some areas where the styrofoam has a rough texture (see photo 3). Since there is no box, I will wrap it in bubble wrap and ship it in simple packaging. Please purchase only if you understand that this is a used item. Thank you.
