preassembled
Arrives already constructed
Preassembled describes something put together before purchase or delivery, requiring no assembly by the buyer: The preassembled furniture arrived ready to use.
The term appears in product descriptions to distinguish items from those sold in pieces with instructions.
We ordered preassembled shelving units to save time.
