I wanted something very simple and sturdy for my fireplace.  Love it except that it is a little too narrow for my fireplace.  I didn't want to spend a lot more for a few inches extra, but if I were to do it over, I'd pay the extra so it fit better in the fireplace.  The fireplace has an electric insert, so it's just decorative and not wood burning...if you have a wood burning fireplace, get the size to fully cover your opening.
