Chair arrived quickly and was well-packaged, which was a good thing because FED-EX simply dumped the carton on the sidewalk in front of my porch and took off without ringing the doorbell. It comes in a single large cardboard carton which requires two people to lift, so had a heck of a time getting it into my garage by myself. Luckily I just happened to have a 4-wheel dolly, which helped considerably. It comes in 2 pieces, and is fairly easy to put together, once you match up all of the wires and metal braces. (Directions are just a bit too brief to be really helpful in that regard, but you can figure it out without them.) Once together, it is a quality chair that is extremely nice looking. Bought it for my wife's upcoming hip replacement, but she is already using and loving it. Great price through Wayfair, highly recommend it.
