Very good value for the money. The instructions weren't super clear, but two of us were able to figure it out in about an hour. The entire structure is made of metal; a few of the pieces were a little bent, but we were able to bend them back into place. It is higher than what a coffee table or ottoman would be, but I don't think you really would want to put any glassware on it as a table as the heat might break the glass. The fireglass that comes with it is sufficient but certainly not overflowing. It lit easily on the first try. Overall, very pleased with this purchase.  

Pros: Great Value
Cons: Metal gets hot to the touch in the sun.
