It came fully assembled and very well wrapped up to protect it during shipment. I love it! Looks absolutely awesome with my black leather couch!The table comes fully assembled, which is unusual. The box looked like it was in a gorilla cage but the packaging was good enough to protect the table. You might want to unpack it in the garage or outside. There were little bits of styrofoam everywhere. The table is well made and should hold up forever. The finish is very nice, a shiny molded look. If you are looking for a functional table with three drawers this is a good buy.Table came fully assembled...it is shorter than it looks in picture and very bulky and sometime you feel it is awkward to move due to design. Also, my table came up with lot of scratch/dent in the product so would be returning this product. It is not value for money given its price and qualityCame assembled but and REALLY heavy/awkward to lift. Def need 2 ppl. Looks identical to the pics but maybe a touch shorter than you realize. Overall very good.Coffee table is sturdy and looks great!. Really adds character to the piece. Surface with High Gloss White Lacquer Finish with Black Accents looks stunning.
