First, the packaging for this item is exceptional. Lots of thick stiff foam sheets protect totally. Both the table and the packing box are heavier than expected. Because of the thickness of both the box and internal packing material, if you should receive a box with any exterior damage, I highly doubt that the table inside could be damaged.

OK now to the table itself. 
For a rather inexpensive item, the quality is excellent in my opinion. It’s solidly built, and nicely finished. It is a bit small/out of scale for my intended  purpose at one end of my sofa, but I  have a comfy reading chair in another room and I’ll probably move it next to that chair were it will be perfect as a place to set a drink or book.
