A buddy and I removed all packageing and carried the top in the house a down a flight of stairs. HEAVY but manageable.
Assembley was a breeze by myself, (about 2 hrs.). Wife  I flipped the top up and in 30 min. were playing pool. Not slate but O K. Looks like a table that costs 3000K . Cues are junk. I play every day and like it a lot. Well see how the acuslate (whatever) playing surface holds up.
