Overall it's quite fine. Mine came in a broken box with some table exposed. Thankfully the plastic shell on the corners kept the corners protected. Unfortunately, on the edges of outside of the middle of the table, both sides suffered some kind of an impact causing damage to the black stuff and the table itself and a small chunk of the table is broken out on one side. I'm not going to bother with repackaging the broken box and deliver it, so I scuffed out the damage, sanded, put in some resin, sanded/smoothed and its pretty good now. The surface of the table needed to be cleaned anyways because it took in some kind of tacky/course substances. I think if the packaging of the table I got was in newish condition at the time someone selected it to fulfill my order, then something went way wrong during delivery/transit. Or maybe that's the condition it was in from the start and that's why it was on sale to begin with? Who knows. For the sale price tho I might roll the dice again...
