The box was delivered looking very beat up! The contents inside were in total disarray and created quite a mess. I had to vacuum with a soft brush each piece of the unit because it was filled with tiny shipping particles. A few pieces had dings and scratches.  It took my husband about 4 hours (a lot of sweating, swearing, yelling) as the directions are not good. Once put together, it does look nice and overall, what I wanted.  We had to get creative with covering the dings and scratches.  The color is great- quality is mediocre- not great, not awful.
