The design & look of the unit is very nice, I purchased the grey colour.    The putting together of the unit was not easy, & very time consuming, you almost need two people to construct.  One to hold boards, the other to line holes up.  The flame is not a true flame colour, but does put out a nice amount of heat in our family room & makes it feel cozy.  Purchased on sale, so feel it was worth the money, would not of purchased at full price.
