I was super impressed with the way these night stands were packaged. It was almost like having a crate inside the cardboard box and every corner was covered with heavy duty plastic guards. The handles were individually plastic wrapped. The quality of the furniture itself is very nice. Solid drawers that move easy. The only very minor complaint was that they looked a little longer in the picture than they actually are, but I did not take account of the measurements, so thats on me.
