This tv stand fireplace is absolutely stunning and exactly what I wanted. It took a good 2-3 hours to put everything together, and some parts were tricky, but the end product is amazing. Looks great in my living room. I live in Texas so haven't even plugged the fireplace in so can't speak to that part but it looks
 cool. I am a single woman and the big box was very heavy I had to drag it in the door but I put it all together by myself so it can be done. Much quicker with a drill obviously. It looks exactly like the picture also. 10/10 would recommend
