We were looking for an electric stove that looked as close to the real thing as possible since we purchased it for our family room.  We are very pleased with the look of the stove.  Despite many other reviewer comments, we feel it was fairly simply to put together and had no problems with any of the pieces or hardware.  All of the screws are the same size which added to ease of assembly.  The design is sturdy and solid.  The logs in the firebox could be made to look more realistic but we love the colored flames which add ambiance to the room.  Of all the electric stove products we researched this one was pretty pricey, but we are very satisfied with the results.  I would recommend this product.
