Bought this for my new apartment a couple of weeks ago. The package had slight damage but nothing major. It didnt cause damage to anything within the box. The package it self had some weight to it. Its recommended that two people lift it. But I carry it myself down stairs, loaded it, unloaded it and took it inside my place. Granted Im a big guy, so things will be different per person. The product feels decent for the price that is paid. Not too cheap or too expensive. The instructions were pretty clear cut. There were only a couple times where I had to double check or go back and change something. But it was nothing serious, just a piece flipped the wrong way. It took me about two and a half to 3 hours to put it together by myself. And that was mainly due to me taking my time and taking breaks in between. I didnt use the provided wood glue because I had seen other reviews that it wasnt enough. So I purchased some wood gorilla glue. No parts were missing and there were actually extra pieces which is always nice. My only complaint so far is that in the description it states Ships ready/to/assemble with necessary hardware and tools. I took that as I would need any additional tools but you DO NEED A PHILIPS HEAD SCREWDRIVER. Luckily I had a multitool and that worked out fine. Feels like I got a good deal so far. Ill update this review if anything major occurs.
Good deal
