The table came in two boxes. One big box for the table, and one small box for the legs. It rained a little bit the day the packages came. I was a little worried about the condition. However, the packaging was great. Not sure why others thought this was tough to put together. I did it in about 90 min by myself. Didn't need to even read the instructions. The pictures explain themselves. 

Make sure you have a power drill! Doing this by hand could take forever. 

If you have built furniture from Ikea, you can definitely build this without any problems.
