The stand arrived just 2 days after ordering and was packaged very well.  The assembly instructions were not included, however, Wayfair was able to email me a PDF of the instructions right away. We were able to assemble this TV stand in approximately 90 minutes.  The piece looks really good for the price and fits our 65 inch nicely. There was one small chip in the wood on the top of the stand, however, a white marker was included for small scratches and repairs and worked nicely to help conceal this imperfection.
