We love the look of this firepit and how well it puts out heat. Our friends are happy too so we can hang out in the cooler weather. It arrived about 10 days earlier than expected which was a super great surprise. Comes in a flatpack box, very well cushioned. It took us a little over an hour to put together. It isn't difficult, just being careful, following the steps.... Glad it included extra hardware, the one poorly threaded bolt was not a problem. Gas hookup very easy. So happy now with our patio setup.
