Arrived in less than a week. Packed neatly. Put it together myself-recommends 2 people and I'm sure it would have gone smoother. It was clumsy by myself because you have to move it around to attach the screws. I chose not to anchor to the wall. I have sat on it and it's ok, but I didn't buy it for a chair. It looks good. 

Pros: Serves its purpose well
Cons: awkward to put together. Directions weren't great.
