Came in a large box. i had to put it together myself which was easy to do. my only complaint is that one of the legs with the pre-drilled screw holes was done badly and it caused the leg to start to crack as i tightened the screw. one review did mention that to open the mirror all the way you had to pull the vanity away from the wall. this is true and i had to pull mine out about half a foot (6 inches or so)to use the mirror. overall i am pleased with the purchase. pros: nice solid piece of wood fruniture. i can finish it myself.cons: some of the construction isn't that great.
