This table  arrived in less than 2 days from the date it was ordered.  Protective packaging was more than adequate.  Assembly took a little more than 1 hour.  This table is an exact match with the web site photo.  This is a solid - well built  piece of furniture.  It does however emit a rather unpleasant odor that has lingered for days but is slowly dissipating.  This table is an excellent value but be prepared to keep your windows open for several days.
