The fire pit is very nice but the instructions are not as clear as needed. There were 3 holes missing in the structure that required drilling. I'm an engineer and a fairly accomplished mechanic and struggled with the assemble process so I feel bad for someone without a mechanical background and limited tools. The tools they included, if used, would have increased the assembly time 10 fold. You need a power drill and drill bits, a ratchet and socket wrench and clamps to facilitate the assembly

Pros: Good value and an attractive fire pit
Cons: Poor directions, missing screw holes and difficult to assemble
