Two large heavy boxes were delivered on time. They recommended more than two people to install and lift table but it can be done with only two people if you are used to lifting heavy objects. My husband and I were able to get the job done with no extra help from anyone. The install was easy and not difficult at all. Thankfully my table was delivered with no major damages. So far I am enjoying looking at the table and I love the pool table so far. I would recommend it.
