Absolutely love this fire pit. The brushed brown color is just as it appears on the site. The elongated flame is really nice, most people I know have a square design fire pit. The shape and clean lines of this unit make it a standout piece on any patio. The propane tank cover is a perfect match color wise and acts as a nice accent table. It was delivered well packed, no damage was sustained even though Fed-Ex chucked it upside down with the clearly marked Fragile sign pointed toward the cement. (not good) un packed it set it up in minutes pressed the igniter and it has performed perfectly from day one! Really like the cover it comes with as well.
