We were pleased on how the nightstands were packed for shipping as well as the quality of construction and wood used to manufacture them.  The only minor issue we had was one of the screws was missing but was easy to find at our local hardware store.  Overall, we are very pleased with the design, construction and relatively easy assembly.  Drawers slide easy and the piece is sturdy.  We would definitely recommend the nightstands to any one looking for a nice piece of furniture to add to their bedroom.
