I would really rate this 4 1/2 stars, just because nothing is really perfect.  The bar came in 3 boxes, all neatly and securely packaged. Pieces were individually labeled, hardware neatly sealed and identified properly -- made assembly go so smoothly.  Did have issue with stem holder assembly and will make adjustment so it can hold wider base glasses.  Overall, makes a nice addition to our kitchen (using it as an island, even though it is high).  Wish I have a bigger house to showcase it.
