How well packaged is this? It needs to travel quite a distance and I'm concerned the table or umbrella may arrive damaged if it isn't very well pkged.

very well packaged & quite compact. i would say risk of damage in shipping is minimal

I don't know. I live in England and had it sent to my niece in the US as a wedding present. She said it is wonderful.

Ours arrived ok... The box was kinda loose at the seams tho.., we almost lost a couple screws... Other than a few nicks in the black paint everything arrived ok

Due to the poles on the racks we prefer not to ship to such a far distance. We would not be able to guarantee it would arrive without damage and to send replacements would be extremely costly. Thank you for your interest in our items.

I bought mine a few weeks ago and there was some minor damage to the package, but not to the table inside. I think it is difficult to avoid damage when shipping such large and heavy items. I would give it a shot anyway as this is a terrific table.

i would probably use a box.. it's not the envelope that will be the problem necessarily, but the way the postal people handle it, it is sure to get broken :(

There was no damage to my set. The box for the table was slightly banged up but the table was fine thanks to the Styrofoam packing. I checked everything before I signed to accept delivery. I love this set. We had family visiting this weekend and it was nice to fit everybody around one table.

The bar was packaged properly when I received it and there were no problems. But if I were shipping it internationally, I would like to have the packagingreinforced because of the distance involved and the extra handling. I hope this helps.

Not overbearing. It does require assembly, so that helps with packaging. Forgive me as we received this in December of last year, but if I remember correctly, maybe 3' tall/wide and 1' deep?

Ours came intact. It's really nice. Maybe it was just an accident during shipping? Send it back and have them send another I'm sure it will be fine.

It is packed pretty well- the platter is not mounted in packing so that doesn't move around. there's a big piece of styrofoam that holds everything in place. I'm sure if it were dropped pretty hard there could be some damage to the motor, but you would be able to return it at that point. I had no issues whatsoever though.

The next time I will see this I can ck for you. I am thinking there is hole at the bottom where it crosses. The table is lightweight but it's pretty sturdy. Just from my memory it looks like you could put a weighted base on the cross "beams". We have considered putting an umbrella in there was a light weight wrought iron base i know that would work

One corner of the box was dinged up a little but the table was in good shape. No additional secure packaging included. The table shipped via U.P.S. and was in fair shape.

It comes in a fairly flimsy cardboard box with plastic wrapping so if you're planning on carrying it very far, I highly recommend keeping it in the box that was provided while it was being delivered to your location.

There IS a hole in the top, which has a matching plug/cover, and the base also has a hole. IT COMES WITH A WARNING NOT TO USE AN UMBRELLA. There is no way this unit can hold it up. An option would be to support the base somehow. This table is extreemely lightweight. Can be lifted with one hand.

Mark it as a gift if you are concerned. It should come packaged within another box when choosing this option. At least that is what I have noticed.

I ordered this table a few months ago. I haven't unpacked it yet since I will be relocating soon and felt it best to leave it in the original pkgs. for transport. Sorry can't answer your question.

You will definitely need a second person. It came in a square box about 5 ft x 5 ft, 12 inches deep and at least 100 + lbs. Mine arrived strapped to a pallet and when I opened the box, the table was surrounded by pieces of particle board for extra protection during shipping...it was packaged very well.

Hi Joe -Just FYI, I ordered and returned this item 3 times. I recieved 2 of the three cracked and one was not obvious and leaked all over my table. There was a hair line crack around the spicket. It held approximately 2gallons. It looks great, just be sure to place it on a placemat or something like that. The silver stand that it is in has a hole in it so if it is leaking you won't be able to tell until you lift it up. Save the box! Best,Tara
