The package arrived quickly but was badly damaged. The box was completely open on one end and had areas where some of the cardboard was missing altogether. Fortunately the contents were still undamaged .  The instructions were easy to follow.  My son put it together in about 2hrs.  His only complaint was that some of the screws were "flimsy" and 2 actually broke. We were able to replace with what we had in our toolbox.  The piece looks beautiful put together, like a fine piece of furniture. I'm very happy with it and have received lots of compliments on it.  It holds all of my files with room to spare.
