Arrived with some damage to outside packaging, but the inside packaging was extensive and all arrived in perfect shape. Oh, and the delivery van driver dropped the pkg. quite heavily on the porch, and we had no broken glass, which I expected to see.  The table parts did not require any tools to put the table together, just screwing and tightening by hand.  Table is not only beautiful, but very very sturdy, and the sturdiness appears to be a problem in some of the other tables I considered and read reviews on.  I love the mirror on the bottom shelf especially as it is nice not to see the floor thru it....was a really good buy !
