The one exception, which others had noted in their reviews, was inadequate packaging, which resulted in a noticeable dent on one corner

Like most folks reported the product packaging looked like it went through a world war, but Amazon packaged it in a larger box and it arrived safely with zero damage.

The packaging is insufficient and four different carts had significant damage

Reasonably priced, very poor packaging.

Mint condition.-Outer box was inadequately taped.-This is more likely a carrier comment, but the packaging was flimsy enough that one corner was crushed.

The packaging is fine, but the top was allowed to slide loosely in the carton.

I've read the other reviews and the reviewers complaints about poor packaging causing the product to be damaged and complaints about the table not being sturdy or difficult to assemble.

I can only speak for my experience regarding the packaging.

The packaging for this product is insufficient for the weight... simply sticking it in a box with a bit of paper does nothing to protect it.

Nice product and great value, but poor packaging so showed up a bit scratched and dented

As others have noted, packaging is absolutely horrible

Really wish manufacturers would not ship good products in bad packaging.

Very easy to assemble...would recommend for future purchase sturdy as it holds my printer
