I wasn’t sure about this fire pit when I bought it, but it turned out great. I think one screw was missing overall, but it was really easy to put together and is sturdy. The fire pit cover does get blazing hot, which was an issue and we had to take it off. I was hoping to be able to use it to keep sparks and things from flying to control it more. Overall great fire pit. Do you note that if you are putting this fire pit over landscape, gravel or somewhere manicured like I did, I do recommend that you have some type of container to catch any ash that falls from directly under the fire pit because it has a couple of drilled holes.  I have white landscape gravel in the area where the fire pit sits, and I didn’t want to ruin the gravel with having the ash fall down on top of it
