it's ok. the gauge of the metal is just thin enough that the perforated panel is a little wavy and not as stiff/flat as it looks in the photos. finish was a little uneven as well, but that may have been due to the wavy surface (shadows). the color is a slightly darker brass than what you see in the photos, which in my case was a plus. the feet were easy enough to assemble, but do not adjust - if your hearth isn't perfectly flat, like mine, this means the panel will lean forward or back - mine leans forward and i may need to add felt pads so that it sits more plumb. the feet come with foam pads attached so they won't scratch your hearth/floor. all in all not bad for the money, but the quality could be better.
