It took a week to arrive from California to Ottawa, Canada. The package was in good condition upon arrival and apart from two small scuff marks on the table surface everything was in good condition.  The table is a beautiful solid stable piece and looks great in our dining room.  The stools are of lesser quality and roughly hewn wood.   Material on seats is crude linen and dry clean only.  The stools are quite soft and you will sink into them.  We are replacing these stools with better quality stools from Lazyboy.  Hence the overall four star rating.  Assembly is straight forward if you have two people.  Nice piece!
