This is going in a project that is still a work in progress, and it is perfect for this space! Love the rusty patina. We have not had a fire in it  yet and we can’t wait! We will eventually vent the smoke out the back of the structure to help keep the smoke inside to a minimum, and we plan to raise off the floor several more inches. No dents upon arrival. Packaged well! Definitely recommend if you like the rusty industrial look!
