I haven't installed the fireplace yet but I can review the shipping process. I ordered an in stock fireplace, it took 6 weeks for it to finally arrive. The date was continually pushed back. I ordered it December 18th. It finally arrived the first week in february. Too late to do the install the first/second week in January. By the time I can get it done now winter will be over. Making this a bit useless. I'm really unhappy with wayfair. I just hope it works when I finally can get to the install. If it's broken I'm gonna blow a gasket. From now on I'll call to find out if it's really in stock and an actual shipping estimate. Please learn from my mistake.
