This fireplace is the best and for the price I paid. Easy to put together, but the top is heavy wood.  I needed my neighbor to help me put the top on the screw it on. Other than that I put it together myself. It looks great in my bedroom and warms my bedroom wonderfully. Cheaper than putting on the heat.  The color isn't white - it is a pretty ivory so beware. I have a picture a Van Gogh on top leaning against the wall and it looks great. I'll add a pic later. But it looks beautiful.
