The decal arrived in a damaged packing tube, one end of the plastic cap was gone. Fortunately the decal was not damaged.  I rolled it out and lay  it flat fro a few hours . Applying the decal to the wall wasn't difficult using the instructions provided but when I removed the transfer tape, the last step, some of the letters would not adhere to the wall, they were pretty firmly stuck to the tape.  I carefully removed them and apply them to the wall but they not adhere, I had to use some adhesive to get them to stay.  The decal is attractive, the lettering is design is nice.   I have used decals before but none of them had the same apply methods and were better quality and lasted for years.  I fear this one will not but it was not expensive. It took me along time to find an expression I really loved just wish it had come in a better quality.  I would have readily paid the price.
