We got this to add space in our tiny kitchen. It arrived in a nicely packaged box that weighs about 99 pounds. It is heavy. Once I opened the box and pulled all the pieces out I realized I would need help assembling it. I am fortunate my boyfriend is a professional contractor and can figure things out. I highly recommend having help. It took us about 2 hours to assemble. It is study and all the holes lined up perfectly. I would have given it 5 stars but the assembly was intense. This is a solid piece and looks nice. The barstool is also from wayfair.
