The table was delivered by DHL. All around sealed and packed with Styrofoam to protect the edges. The assembly was a breeze. The legs are simply snapped into the holder only. Positioned table and finished. The folding is just jiffy. Solve legs out of the holders and fold. Very little space. This table is just great. Prima size, perfectly adequate for 6 chairs and the look of the table top is simply beautiful. The material of the tabletop is absolutely insensitive. What more do you want?
