The package arrived in good condition. I opened it a few days later on the porch and got a massive headache from the smell. The pieces have been on the porch now for over a week, because I did not want to get another headache and putting it together seems complicated. The whitewash paint is not attractive. I will definitely paint it to reduce the smell and to make it look finished. Overall, it seems to be a quaint  piece of furniture. I will have to buy cushions for it to be of use.
