Table arrived on time with some damage to metal ring underneath (one screw stripped from wood).  Was able to fix and attach base ok.  The box had some gaping tears, so not surprised to find a little damage.  After traveling a different route & taking longer, the chairs finally arrived in perfect condition.  Chairs are sturdy, comfortable & a nice size.  Everything was very easy to assemble, even for this lady in her 60's!  Looks great in my kitchen.
