Yep, expect damage. Mine has a crack in the lower shelf. Dont want to hassle with returning it, so I took out the staple holding the pieces together, filled the crack with Gorilla Glue, and clamped it. Easy fix, but it shouldnt be necessary for a fresh out of the box piece of furniture.
Thought it was bargain priced at 132.00, but right after I ordered, the price dropped to 118.00. Had my table been intact, I wouldnt complain about the price. Dont pay 250.00 for the red one (which is the color I actually wanted). Its definitely not worth that amount of money. The gray color is fine (not a cool blue/grey, its a neutral warmer pink undertone, but its not PINK, more like a putty color), though Ill probably slap some chalk paint on it and get the color I wanted in the first place.
Other than the crack and the ungodly amount of Styrofoam bits that are now covering my cats and carpet.it will serve its purpose. I just needed it to store my printer and a few other office accessories. If I had purchased it as a decorative piece for my living room or entryway, Id be upset. Luckily, Im pretty easy/going and handy. Its super easy to put together. It actually took me longer to vacuum off the Styrofoam clinging to the pieces than it did to assemble.
I guess well see how it holds up.
Dont expect too much
