One of the legs was broken/cracked when I opened the box.  Some plastic pieces were in the bottom of the box. The box did no show any damage on the outside but there was some damage on the inside of the box.  I used Gorilla Glue on the leg and clamp it over night.  I liked the item because I had bought one last year.  I hope the glue will hold.  Such a large item I did not want to return the item.
