Shipped in a timely manner. Wayfair sent email updates. Unit packed VERY well. This unit is heavy and solid and does not need to be put together. Color is as expected. Unit was in excellent condition. I am using this in a home officesitting room so it will be doubling as a stand for my TV as well and filing and office supply storage. Very pleased and impressed with the quality of the piece for the price I paid for it. I can see repurposing this in the future in the dining room as a sideboard, etc.
