I absolutely love it.  Wasn't very difficult to put together.  Just pay close attention to the placement of the holes in the images and you should have it.  I grew up with snow but live in Texas, so this fireplace is perfect for me.  Creates a very cozy environment.  On the right, you'll see another shelf.  I happened to have that at my house already and realized the colors were exact so I just pushed it up to the side and love it even more!  Just be patient and go slow in putting it together and you'll be just fine.
