The fireplace arrived in two days and took my daughter and I approximately 90 minutes to assemble.  We ordered the Rich Espresso color and it works will in our living room.  The firebox is bright and adjustable flame makes it feel warm even with the heater turned off.  We couldn't be more pleased with this purchase.  The size works well for our small family room area and the heater takes the chill off the room in just a few minutes.

Pros: Makes a beautiful addition to a room and the materials are top drawer, including the faux slate.
Cons: None
