Very well packaged.  You will need either a claw hammer or a chisel to gently break apart the wood crate.  I used a hammer and got it out in about 15 minutes tops.  Table arrived in perfect condition with no chips or scratches.  The edge has a green reflection.  I am using it as a table to display plants against a floor-to-ceiling window.  I wanted something that would disappear and not block views.  This worked perfectly.
