Easy to assemble - took about 90 minutes.  Puts out good heat, even in the wind.  6 of us able to sit out around it, on a porch, on a 53 degree day with 15 mph winds and didn't need jackets.  The side panels don't sit plumb against the frame but the flame is gorgeous, it lights the space at night, and the heat is plenty.  Have had it less than a week so unsure of the durability but for the price, definitely worth it so far.

Pros: Easy assembly, pretty to look at, great heat
Cons: side panels are a bit flimsy
