The dresser arrived in a very manageable box and was not too heavy or bulky to move. Unboxing was easy. You must read, but also study the pictures well on assembly. Be sure to make sure drawer racks lineup including the drawer slides and stops are all in the back, but also the holes on the rear support are all lined up and than you wont have to move pieces. It is light but with clothes in it is very sturdy. The drawers are more heavy duty due to a press wood piece on the front which should extend the life.  It is a nice piece for the price and is exactly what I expected.
