This is an AMAZING table!!!  It came in two separate boxes - the base (includes 4 pieces that you put together very easily) and the top (one single piece).  It was very easy to put together (don't listen to ANYONE when they tell you not to use power tools) but the top IS heavy so be careful when taking it out of the box (my husband was able to take it out without issue, but I could not lift it).

It's a GORGEOUS table and looks amazing in our formal living room.  Please do not hesitate to purchase!
