It came well packed in factory packaging. The unit was lighter than I expected and it should be handled and packed carefully, that said, I just followed the quick start instructions, set it on the ground with a clear view of the southern sky and in about 8 minutes it had a good signal.
You do have to have the correct Direct TV receiver. If in doubt, give them a call. That's what I did and I found them very helpful. Also you can not get HD TV with this dish.
Since it is designed to sit on just about anything and can be permanently mounted on the roof of your RV I know it is weather proof, but if you set it on the ground I don't think it would survive rising water. (more than 3 inches.) For that reason I wish they offered a short tripod as an option.
Overall a good experience if your tired of manually aiming a manual dish.

Still working well. No problems.
