Everything is good when it arrived. They package it nicely.  Assembling it is into moderate side, because their instruction manual did not give much information/ explanation on what side or hole should interconnect to each other, or how you will be able to attached the legs to make it look the cross style, I had the hard time to connect the legs before attaching it to the table because it won't fit to each other, since it is not fully aligned to each other the corners got chipped! ( I guess I got a defect one) Anyways, when it is all done it is still a nice looking writing desk,  I just patch the chipped that I mentioned.
