Comes in 5 heavy boxes.  Fed Ex will most likely damage several boxes. One box was so damaged to couldn't deliver it.  After a bit of a hassle Wayfair resent all the boxes.  The Quality is Okay. Cuts on the wood were poor. One was so for off it that It would have had to be  recut and drilled.  Good thing I had extra boxes so I could swap out that part.  Metal had dent's and scraps (from shipping. The instruction are horrible. Take your time and read ahead, lay out and have parts ready. Pay close attention to pictures.  All in all it was not a horrible project and not to difficult to assemble.
