When we received this at our home, I was a little apprehensive about putting the pit together. It was a total breeze, though! Took me about 20 minutes, and that included me taking breaks to watch TV I had going at the same time. The pit itself is really pretty, mostly black but it has this nice dark bronze finish to it that gives it a little extra style. We put the pit to the test and it has ample space for a nice big fire - we used one bundle of wood and there was plenty of room for more, if that's what you're into. For us, this was perfect for family nights around the fire. Really excited about using it again!  

Pros: easy to assemble, nice finish, pretty design
