This is a great small workbench. The kit came very well protected (I ordered it on line and had it home delivered). All the kit parts were included (this might be a first for me) and it even came with a package of extra screws in the various sizes. The screwdriver provided is a #2 Phillips. This works well on most of the screws, but I felt better using a #3 Phillips on the leg mount screws.
All the individual workbench parts are well protected within the shipping box, either wrapped in paper or plastic. Each part is well identified in reference to the parts list, including its parts list number and also the proper orientation of the part as it is supposed to be installed (front, up, etc.).
All the parts that require it are pre-drilled and the anchor nuts, when required, are well imbedded in place. EVERY hole lined up perfectly and NO NUTS stripped out or became loose and rotated in its position. This was definitely a first for me on this type of project. The 4 leveling floor pads on the bottom of the workbench legs are about 2 3/8" in diameter, making this workbench very stable once assembled. The "peg board" back piece is not the old style, pressed board type where the holes pull out after years of use. This "peg board" is metal and I do not anticipate having any pull-out problems. The drawers slide in and out easily and smoothly.
The parts list and the assembly instructions are well written and straight forward.
One thing not mentioned in the instructions: the light assembly comes with the fluorescent tube in place, sheathed in a cardboard protective sleeve. Make sure you remove the light lens, remove the tube protector, and then reinstall the tube in the light. You might find the light a little "dim" if you don't do this! I found this out only because I wanted to know the fluorescent tube specifications in order to get a spare. The fluorescent tube is a 21Watt, 4100K, 34 inch, T5 tube.
I can only add that I wish the Seville Classics Company would send representatives on a worldwide tour to teach and explain to other companies exactly how "kit projects" should be produced and packaged.
This workbench is not a large workbench, but you know that if you read its specifications. My need was for a small workbench to place in the basement and this product is exactly what I was looking for. I would recommend this workbench.
