This came very well packed and was reasonably easy to assemble. (It is definitely easier to put the doors on with a second person to help.) 

Be forewarned that the back piece is cardboard, not wood veneer, but of course it doesnt really show.

I recently got a Crate and Barrel media center, also veneer wood, and its just not as nice as that. Nor as expensive, of course. I think this is a great value.
