It arrived four days before I was told it would originally and I was updated on the revised delivery date.  The box was well reinforced and it was packed excellent. This is solid wood at a great price. The hidden casters are a real plus because this is a very heavy large table. It was not difficult to put together, however, my husband had to loosen one leg significantly to place in the lower shelf.  I am very disappointed in the color, it does not look like the picture at all.  The top is so dark, almost black like antique mahogany, the legs a little lighter.  It is much darker than my other cherry furniture. If it was lighter as in the picture, I would have rated it 5 stars.
