Great quality table, but definitely opt for assembly and in room delivery. Extremely heavy to do alone and takes an entire afternoon to assemble the chairs. The table is surprisingly easy to put together in comparison.

Good quality wood used in the table. Chairs are a bit firm. 

6 chairs can fit in a 3x3 configuration, but it will be difficult for guests to maneuver. Putting the extra two chairs on the ends is possible but the board that holds the legs in place on the sides will not be comfortable for them.
