Very heavy delivery. The FedEx driver put holes in the box getting it to the door. The box states open carefully, has to be in original box to return, which is not realistic. There was no way to open the box and get the items out without destroying it. There needs to be slots are something to make the box easier to carry. The table is sturdy. Stools not so much. I have to retighten them often. As others have mention edges of stools are sharp. Not very comfy. Serves its purpose which is to eat at and get up. Looks great.
