I read all of the reviews before purchasing and I am glad I bought it. Easy to assemble and it looks really great. The tiles are nice and you can use it as a table once the cover is on. The glass shield is certainly a plus. Adds to the ambience of the fire and safety. My only complaint is that one of the glass clamps was damaged. Regardless I was able to use it. I emailed the company and I hope to get a replacement soon.  I give it a  up.
