I was very excited about this fire pit after reading so many good reviews. It was very easy to put together but came with a few dents from shipping. The metal used in constructing is EXTREMELY thin - I don’t think it would last more than one summer. The cover for this item was very thin plastic- about as thin as a ziplock bag. Way fair worked with us on this purchase and I remain a happy Wayfair customer as I have been happy with almost all of our other purchases from them.
