The package arrived in just a couple of days. All of the parts were well packed and organized. The instructions and hardware seemed a little daunting at first, but once I started putting it together it only took a couple of hours. The quality is very good, something you would expect to get from a nice furniture store, and the instructions were easy to understand and did not feel like it came from some "foreign" culture. I would buy from Furniture of America again any time. We are so proud of our new cabinet!
