Box was slightly damaged, but because the material was packaged so well, there was no impact on the wood. 

There were two instructions (one in the box and one online). The one online was correct (i.e., wooden dowels needed, not hex screws), but only the boxed instructions had the corresponding parts labeled correctly. So correctly identifying all the parts took some time. 

All and all, just under 3h to finish independently and the quality of this buffet wine rack is amazing. Well worth the time and money spent.
