Purchased through Amazon prime. Shipped via a freight company. They told me the original box had sustained damage, so they opened it. As delivered, it came in 7 large boxes, all of which were fairly heavy and hard for one person to carry. So, I'm thankful for that. A single box would have been impossible.Build quality of materials is fantastic. The weight is great (they're heavy and sturdy) and I wouldn't worry about any sitting on the bottom.Construction was straightforward, but at several points required a second person -- for safety of me and the materials. I'd guess it took about 2 hours total, not trying to rush and to make sure I got the curves in the right direction.The hanger section is shallow. None of our child angers fit with the doors closed. It's a neat feature, but isn't as useful as we'd hoped.Overall, we're very happy with the results.
