I just received my 3 fireplace boxes yesterday and it took me about 2 hours to easily assemble by myself. I love, love, love the size of it and it fits wonderfully in my condo living room. My one negative is that for the price, I wish the flames changed colors. Other than that small quirk, I'm super happy with it. As you can see in the photo, the size of this fireplace makes my 65" TV look like a 32".
