We have a small fireplace with no hearth. This set on the floor looks a little small in scale, but the size of the individual tools is perfect for the smaller fireplace. In quality it's exactly what I was looking for:  heavy metal, the broom is a real broom, and there are *no* pieces that get loose while using such as the handles and the business ends of the tools - the broom, the shovel, even the poker end can loosen on some sets; not this one. The tongs-tool is made with precision. And the stand itself is properly leveled, there is no wobbling on a flat surface. Very satisfied, recommended.
