Product came very well packaged. The vendor did a great job with ensuring that nothing gets damaged. It was a bit to heavy for me to drag the whole box upstairs, so I took it apart and carried it to the office in couple trips. The directions were very easy and if you are some what handy you can assemble it on your own. I did however need to get my husbands power tools for legs. It’s no Pottery Barn but it hold a good amount of books and fits well with my walnut office furniture. For the price it’s a quick win! Sorry for the quick picture as I am still in the process of getting it together.
