Received much quicker than expected. Very EASY to assemble - comes as sides, back, seat and shelf that you have to assemble. Seems very sturdy. It is a little rough in places (not sanded well) but not a huge problem. Do wish the lower shelf was attached, it just sits over the bottom rungs. When I sit, sometimes I put my heels up on it, and it will move... First purchase from Wayfair and very happy with all aspects of the transaction!
