Table (and matching chairs - ordered separately) arrived within three days. The glass top was securely packaged so that, although I dropped it while packing it into my vehicle, it didn't break or crack. Three large packages arrived at the same time and all three fit into the back seat area of my Toyota Camry. The table was easily assembled within 15 minutes. The chairs were somewhat more troublesome and eventually required the use of a drill with a narrow bit but never the less required about an hour and a half for assembly. Extra screws and wrenches were included and east to follow instructions for chair assembly was included in that package. In the end, the ensemble is very impressive, looking every bit more expensive than the actual cost. Table and chairs are extremely sturdy and glass is flawless. There is ample room for a small, low center piece and places for four with some space left over. Chairs are not too high or too low and knees fit comfortably beneath the table top. Four small floor pads are included for the table stand. Some designer put a of thought into the design and engineering. The seat pads are very supportive, classy and contemporary and blend well with any decor. I happen to have a fairly classy set up with marble flooring and the table and chairs fit comfortably into a space in front of a corner bookshelf in my living room (I have a standard dining table in my dining room) so that I can now entertain more informally yet with some elegance. Absolutely recommend!
