Arrive in 3 boxes, well packed. Took about 2 hours to assemble. I used wood glue in the wood peg slots to make it sturdier (not really needed). Once assembled, sits well, I didn't use the legs that it came with for a more contemporary look. The wine slots don't fit my larger wine glasses, no biggie. Certain regular wine bottles with an extra 416 of an inch in the cork wrapping won't allow the door to clasp onto the magnet mechanism if they rest on the top wine rack ( the bottle hits the shelf rod), I just moved the bottles around to fit. All in all, it's a functional piece for entertaining.
