After reading some of the reviews below I have to say I had no problem with the packaging or the instructions. One of the packets had some damage to one end from transport, but there is a piece of gash chipboard inserted at the ends of the packets or absorb any impact damage, so there was no effect on the wardrobe itself. The instructions were clear enough for me. I did some prep in my garage (built drawers, etc) and then transported the pieces upstairs. You do need a large space to lay this beast flat before lifting it, and that was definitely a 2 person job. My only gripe is the handles which I found ok to look at, but hard for my arthritic hands to grip and open. So I replaced the handles with something better.
