Arrived quickly although didn't like that they leaned it up against my garage. No knock or doorbell and I was home waiting for it. Didn't know how long it was there. Anyway, my husband took about 4 hours to put it together with a screwdriver and detailed instructions. It's very well made and I am so pleased with the results. It's heavy and looks rich with great detail. It matches my other dining room furniture perfectly. After all my research, I definitely made the right decision. It's beautiful and I love it! And the price was outstanding for such a beautiful piece!
