Packaging Wayfair does a really great job ensuring that all of their pieces are nicely wrapped and packaged. This allows me to feel confident that my pieces ordered will get to my door step in without breakage! This table had many pieces, but each piece was wrapped with individual wrapping of plastic and styrofoam. 

Assembly Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! This chair was one of the easiest pieces of furniture to put together. I would not consider myself overly handy and I believe anyone could put it together.
