We appreciated the early delivery, the delivery drivers were very courteous with the delivery, the assembly of the bench went as expected with the directions supplied, it took a little over 3 hours for my wife and I to assembly, we are pleased with the Hall Tree with one exception, the colour, the online description calls for the item to be white, the actual colour is stressed white which we are a little disappointed with, we expected the unit to be completely white. we are going to paint the tree making a little more work.
