Shipping took awhile, which is okay considering it all came in one box together. It looks great once it’s all set up and is definitely a two person job as the other reviews say. I would highly recommend a drill to put the pieces together it sped the process up. Only giving 3 stars because the direction could have been a little more specific and it came with a couple chopped pieces of wood. It’s too much to send back and have replace so we’re keeping it as is.
