We ordered 2 sets of 2 because for some reason buying them this way saved us money vs buying the set of 4 or 4 individual chairs. They came in two boxes... one for the legs and one for the seats. The legs were stacked nicely but the styrofoam wasn't entirely protecting them + the box was BARELY large enough for them so it rubbed off some of the finish. Otherwise they were super easy to put together and we LOVE them!!!
